We establish Sturm bounds for degree g Siegel modular forms modulo a prime p, which are vital for explicit computations. Our inductive proof exploits Fourier-Jacobi expansions of Siegel modular forms and properties of specializations of…

In this article we prove an analogue of a theorem of Lachaud, Ritzenthaler, and Zykin, which allows us to connect invariants of binary oc-tics to Siegel modular forms of genus 3. We use this connection to show that certain modular…

We study the finiteness of low degree points on certain modular curves and their Atkin--Lehner quotients, and, as an application, prove the modularity of elliptic curves over all but finitely many totally real fields of degree $5$. On the…

If $E$ is a minimal elliptic curve defined over $\ZZ$, we obtain a bound $C$, depending only on the global Tamagawa number of $E$, such that for any point $P\in E(\QQ)$, $nP$ is integral for at most one value of $n>C$. As a corollary, we…

We study isolated points on the modular curves $X_{H}$, for $H$ a subgroup of $\operatorname{GL}_{2}(\mathbb{Z}/n \mathbb{Z})$ for some $n \geq 1$. In particular, we prove a single-sink theorem for such isolated points, which traces the…

We study the arithmetic of Galois-invariant sets of points on algebraic curves with controlled reduction behavior. Let $C$ be a smooth projective curve with a smooth proper model $\mathcal{C}$ over $\mathcal{O}_{K,S}$. We define $\Omega_n$…

In this paper, we give an explicit bound for the height of integral points on $X_0(p)$ by using a very explicit version of the Chevalley-Weil principle. We improve the bound given by Sha in \cite{sha2014bounding1}.

We show that every continuous simple curve with $\sigma$-finite length has a tangent at positively many points. We also apply this result to functions with finite lower scaled oscillation; and study the validity of the results in higher…

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…

We show that the module of integral points on a Drinfeld module satisfies a an analogue of Dirichlet's unit theorem, despite its failure to be finitely generated. As a consequence, we obtain a construction of a canonical finitely generated…

We bound the j-invariant of S-integral points on arbitrary modular curves over arbitrary fields, in terms of the congruence group defining the curve, assuming a certain Runge condition is satisfied by our objects. We then apply our bounds…

We prove that there are finitely many perfect powers in elliptic divisibility sequences generated by a non-integral point on elliptic curves of the from $y^2=x(x^2+b)$, where $b$ is any positive integer. We achieve this by using the…

We prove an arithmetic Riemann-Roch theorem for pointed stable curves. We derive consequences for the Selberg zeta function of an open modular curve $Y_{1}(p)$ (resp. $Y_{0}(p)$), for a prime number $p\geq 11$ (resp. congruent to 11 modulo…

We establish an effective version of Siegel's lower bounds for class numbers of imaginary quadratic fields in certain cures in $Y(1)^n$. Our proof goes through the G-functions method of Yves Andr\'e.

This work is motivated by two central questions in the birational geometry of moduli spaces of curves -- Fulton's conjecture and the effective cone of $\bar M_g$. We study the algebro-geometric aspect of Teichmuller curves parameterizing…

We consider the structure of rational points on elliptic curves in Weierstrass form. Let x(P)=A_P/B_P^2 denote the $x$-coordinate of the rational point P then we consider when B_P can be a prime power. Using Faltings' Theorem we show that…

Given a parametrisation of an elliptic curve over Q by a Shimura curve, we show that the images of almost all Heegner points are of infinite order. For parametrisations of elliptic curves by modular curves this was proven earlier by Nekovar…

We describe an algorithm to compute the number of points over finite fields on a broad class of modular curves: we consider quotients $X_H/W$ for $H$ a subgroup of $\GL_2(\mathbb Z/n\mathbb Z)$ such that for each prime $p$ dividing $n$, the…

A result of Habegger shows that there are only finitely many singular moduli such that $j$ or $j-\alpha$ is an algebraic unit. The result uses Duke's Equidistribution Theorem and is thus not effective. For a fixed $j$-invariant $\alpha \in…
