We prove a recent conjecture of Beisegel et al. that for every positive integer k, every graph containing an induced P_k also contains an avoidable P_k. Avoidability generalises the notion of simpliciality best known in the context of…

We generalise the Siegel-Voloch theorem about S-integral points on elliptic curves as follows: let K/F denote a global function field over a finite field F of characteristic p>3, let S denote a finite set of places of K and let E/K denote a…

In this paper, we describe the construction of superelliptic curves with a rational point of prescribed order on their jacobians. The construction is based on Hensel's Lemma and produces for a given integer $N$ a superelliptic curve of…

Relative index theorems, which deal with what happens with the index of elliptic operators when cutting and pasting, are abundant in the literature. It is desirable to obtain similar theorems for other stable homotopy invariants, not the…

We bound the j -invariant of integral points on a modular curve in terms of the congruence group defining the curve. We apply this to prove that the modular curve Xsplit (p3) has no non-trivial rational point if p is a sufficiently large…

For a prime number p, we characterize the groups that may arise as torsion subgroups of an elliptic curve with complex multiplication defined over a number field of degree 2p. In particular, our work shows that a classification in the…

Given an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic zero, we study the incidence relation between points and irreducible projective curves, or more precisely the poset of irreducible proper subvarieties of $\mathbb P^2(K)$. Answering…

Let E be an elliptic curve defined over Q. We study the relationship between the torsion subgroup E(Q)_tors and the torsion subgroup E(K)_tors, where K is a cubic number field. In particular, We study the number of cubic number fields K…

Extending Gross's result, we prove that a certain factorizaton of measures holds for all $p$ and any finite even Dirichlet character $\chi$ of any conductor, rather than only for split $p$ and $\chi$ with conductor a power of $p$. Using…

We give a new definition of a $p$-adic $L$-function for a mixed signature character of a real quadratic field and for a nontrivial ray class character of an imaginary quadratic field. We then state a $p$-adic Stark conjecture for this…

We show that the hyperplane conjecture holds for the classes of $k$-intersection bodies with arbitrary measures in place of volume.

Let $X$ be a cubic surface over a global field $k$. We prove that a Brauer-Manin obstruction to the existence of $k$-points on $X$ will persist over every extension $L/k$ with degree relatively prime to $3$. In other words, a cubic surface…

We prove in particular that for any sufficiently large prime $p$ there is $1\le a<p$ such that all partial quotients of $a/p$ are bounded by $O(\log p/\log \log p)$. For composite denominators a similar result is obtained. This improves the…

We prove that a strengthened form of the local Langlands conjecture is valid throughout the principal series of any connected split reductive $p$-adic group. The method of proof is to establish the presence of a very simple geometric…

The unrestricted T-system is a family of relations in the Grothendieck ring of the category of the finite-dimensional modules of the Yangian or the quantum affine algebra associated with a complex simple Lie algebra. The unrestricted…

For an imaginary quadratic field $k$ of class number $>1$, we prove that there are only finitely many isomorphism classes of rational indefinite quaternion division algebras $B$ such that the associated Shimura curve $M^B$ has $k$-rational…

We connect the sixth power moment of Kloosterman sums to elliptic curves. This yields an elementary proof that $K_u$ with $p\nmid u$ are $O(p^{2/3})$.

Let $[K:\mathbb{Q}]=p$ be a prime number and let $E/K$ be an elliptic curve with $j(E) \in \mathbb{Q}$. We determine the all possibilities for $E(K)_{tors}$. We obtain these results by studying Galois representations of $E$ and of it's…

We show the existence of group-theoretic sections of certain geometrically pro-nilpotent by abelian arithmetic fundamental groups of hyperbolic curves over p-adic local fields which are non-geometric, i.e., which do not arise from rational…

Let $k$ be a field of positive characteristic $p$. Question: Does every twisted form of $\mu_p$ over $k$ occur as subgroup scheme of an elliptic curve over $k$? We show that this is true for most finite fields, for local fields and for…
