We give a geometric criterion to check the validity of the integral Tate conjecture for one-cycles on a smooth projective variety that is separably rationally connected in codimension one, and to check that the Brauer-Manin obstruction is…

Heuristics based on the Sato--Tate conjecture suggest that an abelian surface defined over a number field has infinitely many places of split reduction. We prove this result for abelian surfaces having real multiplication. Similar to…

Let X be a homogeneous space of a quasi-trivial k-group G, with geometric stabilizer H, over a number field k. We prove that under certain conditions on the character group of H, certain algebraic Brauer-Manin obstructions to the Hasse…

This article is a survey of conjectures and results on reductive algebraic groups having good reduction at a suitable set of discrete valuations of the base field. Until recently, this subject has received relatively little attention, but…

We study K3 surfaces with complex multiplication following the classical work of Shimura on CM abelian varieties. After we translate the problem in terms of the arithmetic of the CM field and its id\`{e}les, we proceed to study some abelian…

Let F be a finite field of characteristic p. We consider smooth surfaces over F(t) defined by an equation f+tg=0, where f and g are forms of degree d in 4 variables with coefficients in F, with d prime to p. We prove : For such surfaces…

We develop Azumaya geometry, which is an extension of classical affine geometry to the world of Azumaya algebras, and package the information contained in all quotient stacks $[\mathrm{rep}_n R\,/\,\mathrm{PGL}_n]$ into a presheaf…

We use techniques from both real and complex algebraic geometry to study K-theoretic and related invariants of the algebra C(X) of continuous complex-valued functions on a compact Hausdorff topological space X. For example, we prove a…

We consider filtered or graded algebras $A$ over a field $K$. Assume that there is a discrete valuation $O_v$ of $K$ with $m_v$ its maximal ideal and $k_v:=O_v/m_v$ its residue field. Let $\Lambda$ be $O_v$-order such that $\Lambda K=A$ and…

Let r > 0 be an integer. We present a sufficient condition for an abelian variety A over a number field k to have infinitely many quadratic twists of rank at least r, in terms of density properties of rational points on the Kummer variety…

This is a textbook on arithmetic geometry with special regard to unramified Brauer groups of algebraic varieties. The topics include Galois cohomology, Brauer groups, obstructions to stable rationality, arithmetic and geometry of quadrics,…

We implement a noncommutative analogue of the well-known commutative cyclic covering trick and implement it to explicitly construct a vast collection of numerically Calabi-Yau orders, noncommutative analogues of surfaces of Kodaira…

We prove that any open subset $U$ of a semi-simple simply connected quasi-split linear algebraic group $G$ with ${codim} (G\setminus U, G)\geq 2$ over a number field satisfies strong approximation by establishing a fibration of $G$ over a…

We prove a local splitting theorem for three-manifolds with mean convex boundary and scalar curvature bounded from below that contain certain locally area-minimizing free boundary surfaces. Our methods are based on those of Micallef and…

We study the slicing inequality for the surface area instead of volume. This is the question whether there exists a constant $\alpha_n$ depending (or not) on the dimension $n$ so that $$S(K)\leq\alpha_n|K|^{\frac{1}{n}}\max_{\xi\in…

For a finite subgroup $\Gamma\subset {\mathrm{SL}}(2,\mathbb{C})$, we identify fine moduli spaces of certain cornered quiver algebras, defined in earlier work, with orbifold Quot schemes for the Kleinian orbifold $[\mathbb{C}^2/\Gamma]$. We…

We study arithmetic properties of del Pezzo surfaces of degree 4 for which the Brauer group has the largest possible order using different fibrations into curves. We show that if such a surface admits a conic fibration, then it always has a…

We prove quantitative versions of Borel and Harish-Chandra's theorems on reduction theory for arithmetic groups. Firstly, we obtain polynomial bounds on the lengths of reduced integral vectors in any rational representation of a reductive…

Let H be a Hopf algebra with bijective antipode, let \alpha, \beta be two Hopf algebra automorphisms of H and M a finite dimensional (\alpha, \beta )-Yetter-Drinfeld module. We prove that End(M) endowed with certain structures becomes an…

This paper expands on a remark in the paper "Mirror Symmetry for Log Calabi-Yau Surfaces I" of the first three authors of this paper, explaining fully how various constructions of the authors apply to give the mirror to the cubic surface.…
