Assuming the obvious definitions (see paper) we show the a decidable model that is effectively prime is also effectively atomic. This implies that two effectively prime (decidable) models are computably isomorphic. This is in contrast to…
We prove that every projective embedding of a connected scheme determined by the complete linear series of a sufficiently ample line bundle is defined by the 2-minors of a 1-generic matrix of linear forms. Extending the work of…
Let $E/\mathbb Q$ be an elliptic curve and $p \geq 3$ a prime. The modular curve $X_E^-(p)$ parametrizes elliptic curves with $p$-torsion modules anti-symplectically isomorphic to $E[p]$. We give a complete classification of when…
In previous articles, we classified the characters associated to algebraic points on Shimura curves of $\Gamma_0(p)$-type, and over number fields in a certain large class we showed that there are at most elliptic points on such a Shimura…
Let $p$ be a large prime, $\ell\geq 2$ be a positive integer, $m\geq 2$ be an integer relatively prime to $\ell$ and $P(x)\in\mathbb{F}_p[x]$ be a polynomial which is not a complete $\ell'$-th power for any $\ell'$ for which…
We prove a version of Silverman's dynamical integral point theorem for a large class of rational functions defined over global function fields.
We present several new heuristic algorithms to compute class polynomials and modular polynomials modulo a prime $p$ by revisiting the idea of working with supersingular elliptic curves. The best known algorithms to this date are based on…
Effective bounds for the finite number of surjective holomorphic maps between canonically polarized compact complex manifolds of any dimension with fixed domain are proven. Both the case of a fixed target and the case of varying targets are…
We introduce and begin the topological study of real rational plane curves, all of whose inflection points are real. The existence of such curves is a corollary of results in the real Schubert calculus, and their study has consequences for…
We present a Mordell-Weil sieve that can be used to compute points on certain bielliptic modular curves $X_0(N)$ over fixed quadratic fields. We study $X_0(N)(\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d}))$ for $N \in \{ 53,61,65,79,83,89,101,131 \}$ and $\lvert d…
Let $M$ be the moduli space of rank $2$ stable bundles with fixed determinant of degree $1$ on a smooth projective curve $C$ of genus $g\ge 2$. When $C$ is generic, we show that any elliptic curve on $M$ has degree (respect to…
Answering a question of Zureick-Brown, we determine the cubic points on the modular curves $X_0(N)$ for $N \in \{53,57,61,65,67,73\}$ as well as the quartic points on $X_0(65)$. To do so, we develop a "partially relative" symmetric Chabauty…
We study the real components of modular curves. Our main result is an abstract group-theoretic description of the real components of a modular curve defined by a congruence subgroup of level N in terms of the corresponding subgroup of…
We propose a new strong Riemannian metric on the manifold of (parametrized) embedded curves of regularity $H^s$, $s\in(3/2,2)$. We highlight its close relationship to the (generalized) tangent-point energies and employ it to show that this…
We prove fixed points results for sandpiles starting with arbitrary initial conditions. We give an effective algorithm for computing such fixed points, and we refine it in the particular case of SPM.
We study the reciprocal position of nine points in the plane, according to their collinearities. In particular, we consider the case in which the nine points are contained in an irreducible cubic curve and we give their classification. If…
We prove that every elliptic curve defined over a totally real number field of degree 4 not containing $\sqrt{5}$ is modular. To this end, we study the quartic points on four modular curves.
Let $E / \mathbb{Q}$ and $A / \mathbb{Q}$ be elliptic curves. We can construct modular points derived from $A$ via the modular parametrisation of $E$. With certain assumptions we can show that these points are of infinite order and are not…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbf{Q}$ without complex multiplication. For each prime $\ell$, there is a representation $\rho_{E,\ell}\colon \text{Gal}(\overline{\mathbf{Q}}/\mathbf{Q}) \to \text{GL}_2(\mathbf{F}_{\ell})$…
In this paper we study quadratic points on the non-split Cartan modular curves $X_{ns}(p)$, for $p = 7, 11,$ and $13$. Recently, Siksek proved that all quadratic points on $X_{ns}(7)$ arise as pullbacks of rational points on $X_{ns}^+(7)$.…
