For a polarized abelian variety, Z. Jiang and G. Pareschi introduce an invariant and show that the polarization is basepoint free or projectively normal if the invariant is small. Their result is generalized to higher syzygies by F. Caucci,…

We study products of irreducible theta divisors from two points of view. On the one hand, we characterize them as normal subvarieties of abelian varieties such that a desingularization has holomorphic Euler characteristic 1. On the other…

Tate's theorem (Invent. Math. 1966)implies that the Tate conjecture holds for any abelian variety over a finite field whose Q_l-algebra of Tate classes is generated by those of degree 1. We construct families of abelian varieties over…

The space of abelian functions of a principally polarized abelian variety J is studied as a module over the ring D of global holomorphic differential operators on J. We construct a D-free resolution in case the theta divisor is…

This article has a twofold purpose. First, by recent works of Kaletha and Loke-Ma, we give an explicit description of the local theta correspondence between regular supercuspidal representations in the equal rank symplectic-orthogonal case.…

We give a formula with explicit error term for the number of $K$-rational points $P$ satisfying $H(f(P)) \le X$ as $X \to \infty$, where $f$ is a nonconstant morphism between projective spaces defined over a number field $K$ and $H$ is the…

In a paper of Tate and the author, we conjectured a uniform bound for the p-adic distance of torsion points on a semiabelian variety, not lying in a subvariety, to that subvariety. We survey the progress made on that conjecture and on…

Let $A$ be a simple abelian variety of dimension $g$ over the field $\mathbb{F}_q$. The paper provides improvements on the Weil estimates for the size of $A(\mathbb{F}_q)$. For an arbitrary value of $q$ we prove $(\lfloor(\sqrt{q}-1)^2…

Assuming Vojta's conjecture, and building on recent work of the authors, we prove that, for a fixed number field $K$ and positive integer $g$, there is an integer $m_0$ such that for any $m > m_0$ there is no principally polarized abelian…

For prime powers q, let s(q) denote the probability that a randomly-chosen principally-polarized abelian surface over the finite field F_q is not simple. We show that there are positive constants B and C such that for all q, B (log…

We examine the percolation model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ by an approach involving lattice animals and their surface-area-to-volume ratio. For $\beta \in [0,2(d-1))$, let $f(\beta)$ be the asymptotic exponential rate in the number of edges of the…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety defined over a number field $K$, the number of torsion points rational over a finite extension $L$ is bounded polynomially in terms of the degree $[L:K]$. When $A$ is isogenous to a product of simple abelian…

Let f:X-->Y be a semi-stable family of complex abelian varieties over a curve Y of genus q, and smooth over the complement of s points. If F(1,0) denotes the non-flat (1,0) part of the corresponding variation of Hodge structures, the…

The primitive cohomology of the theta divisor of a principally polarized abelian variety of dimension $g$ is a Hodge structure of level $g-3$. The Hodge conjecture predicts that it is contained in the image, under the Abel-Jacobi map, of…

In this note we study the geometry of principally polarized abelian varieties (ppavs) with a vanishing theta-null (i.e. with a singular point of order two and even multiplicity lying on the theta divisor). We describe the locus within the…

We revisit the calculation of height correlations in the two-dimensional Abelian sandpile model by taking advantage of a technique developed recently by Kenyon and Wilson. The formalism requires to equip the usual graph Laplacian,…

We introduce a qualitative conjecture, in the spirit of Campana, to the effect that certain subsets of rational points on a variety over a number field, or a Deligne-Mumford stack over a ring of S-integers, cannot be Zariski dense. The…

We study a three-dimensional abelian lattice model in which the analogue of a theta term can be defined. This term is defined by introducing a neutral scalar field and its effect is to couple magnetic monopoles to the scalar field and…

We show that the classical Kuga-Satake construction gives rise, away from characteristic 2, to an open immersion from the moduli of primitively polarized K3 surfaces (of any fixed degree) to a certain regular integral model for a Shimura…

We define the height of a motive over a number field. We show that if we assume the finiteness of motives of bounded height, Tate conjecture for the $p$-adic Tate module can be proved for motives with good reduction at $p$.
