Let $n$ be a positive multiple of $4$. We establish an asymptotic formula for the number of rational points of bounded height on singular cubic hypersurfaces $S_n$ defined by $$ x^3=(y_1^2 + \cdots + y_n^2)z . $$ This result is new in two…

We develop a strategy for bounding from above the height of rational points of modular curves with values in number fields, by functions which are polynomial in the curve's level. Our main technical tools come from effective Arakelov…

We prove that for any fixed d the generating function of the projection of the set of integer points in a rational d-dimensional polytope can be computed in polynomial time. As a corollary, we deduce that various interesting sets of lattice…

We show that for any sufficiently large integer $Q$ and a real $0\leq\lambda\leq\frac34$ there exists a value $c(n,f,J)>0$ such that all strips $L(Q,\lambda)=\{(x,y):|y-f(x)|<Q^{-\lambda}, x\in J=[a,b]\}$ contain at least $c(n, f,…

We consider cubic polynomials f(z)=z^3+az+b defined over the function field C(L), with a marked point of period N and multiplier L. In the case N=1, there are infinitely many such objects, and in the case N>2, only finitely many. The case…

Let f be a degree d polynomial defined over the nonarchimedean field C_p, normalized so f is monic and f(0)=0. We say f is post-critically bounded, or PCB, if all of its critical points have bounded orbit under iteration of f. It is known…

We discuss a new method to compute the canonical height of an algebraic point on a hyperelliptic jacobian over a number field. The method does not require any geometrical models, neither $p$-adic nor complex analytic ones. In the case of…

An asymptotic formula is established for the number of rational points of bounded anticanonical height which lie on a certain Zariski open subset of an arbitrary smooth biquadratic hypersurface in sufficiently many variables. The proof uses…

The paper provides an elementary proof establishing a sharp universal bound on the $(d-1)$-Hausdorff measure of the zeros of any nontrivial multivariable polynomial $p:\mathbb{R}^d\to\mathbb{R}$ within a $d$-dimensional cube of size $r$.…

Given two rational maps $f,g: \mathbb{P}^1 \to \mathbb{P}^1$ of degree $d$ over $\mathbb{C}$, DeMarco-Krieger-Ye [DKY22] has conjectured that there should be a uniform bound $B = B(d) > 0$ such that either they have at most $B$ common…

A cubic hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^n$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ is given by the vanishing locus of a cubic form $f$ in $n+1$ variables. It is conjectured that when $n \geq 4$, such cubic hypersurfaces satisfy the Hasse principle. This is…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective hypersurface defined over $\mathbb{Q}$. We provide new bounds for rational points of bounded height on $X$. In particular, we show that if $X$ is a smooth projective hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^n$ with $n\geq…

We compute the Hausdorff dimension of the set of simultaneously $q^{-\lambda}$-well approximable points on the Veronese curve in $\mathbb{R}^n$ for $\lambda$ between $\frac{1}{n}$ and $\frac{2}{2n-1}$. For $n=3$, the same result is given…

We discuss existence of explicit search bounds for zeros of polynomials with coefficients in a number field. Our main result is a theorem about the existence of polynomial zeros of small height over the field of algebraic numbers outside of…

The study of proper rational mappings between balls in complex Euclidean spaces naturally leads to the relationship between the degree and imbedding dimension of such a mapping. The special case for monomial mappings is equivalent to the…

We investigate the following problem: what is the smallest possible distance between a cubic irrational $\xi$ and a rational number $p/q$ in terms of the height $H(\xi)$ and $q$? More precisely, we consider the set $D_{3,1}$ consisting of…

Let $f(x) = x^{2g+1} + c_1 x^{2g} + \dots + c_{2g+1} \in k[x]$ be a polynomial of nonzero discriminant, and let $J$ denote the Jacobian of the odd hyperelliptic curve $C : y^2 = f(x)$. We show that the morphism $J \to \mathbb{P}^{2^g-1}$…

A polynomial over a ring is called decomposable if it is a composition of two nonlinear polynomials. In this paper, we obtain sharp lower and upper bounds for the number of decomposable polynomials with integer coefficients of fixed degree…

A conjecture of Batyrev and Manin predicts the asymptotic behaviour of rational points of bounded height on smooth projective varieties over number fields. We prove some new cases of this conjecture for conic bundle surfaces equipped with…
