Let $S$ and $T$ be smooth projective varieties over an algebraically closed field. Suppose that $S$ is a surface admitting a decomposition of the diagonal. We show that, away from the characteristic of $k$, if an algebraic correspondence $T…

For a cuspidal automorphic representation of GL2/Q associated to a modular form, the local and global Langlands correspondences are compatible at all finite places of Q. On the p-adic Coleman-Mazur eigencurve this principle can fail (away…

For a pair of quadratic forms with rational coefficients in at least $10$ variables, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of common zeros under the assumption that the two forms determine a projective variety with exactly two…

For varieties over global fields, weak approximation in the space of adelic points can fail. For a subvariety of an abelian variety one expects this failure is always explained by a finite descent obstruction, in the sense that the rational…

We extend the infinitesimal Torelli theorem for smooth hypersurfaces to nodal hypersurfaces.

We show that if $f(u)\in \mathbb{Z}[u]$ is a monic cubic polynomial, then for all but finitely many $n\in \mathbb{Z}$ the affine cubic surface $f(u_{1})+f(u_{2})+f(u_{3})=n \subset \mathbb{A}^{3}_{\mathbb{Z}}$ has no integral Brauer-Manin…

A central question in Arithmetic geometry is to determine for which polynomials $f \in \mathbb{Z}[t]$ and which number fields $K$ the Hasse principle holds for the affine equation $f(t) = N_{K/\mathbb{Q}}(\boldsymbol{x}) \neq 0$. Whilst…

A well known conjecture asserts that a cubic fourfold $X$ whose transcendental cohomology $T_X$ can not be realized as the transcendental cohomology of a $K3$ surface is irrational. Since the geometry of cubic fourfolds is intricately…

We develop a heuristic for the density of integer points on affine cubic surfaces. Our heuristic applies to smooth surfaces defined by cubic polynomials that are log K3, but it can also be adjusted to handle singular cubic surfaces. We…

In Part I we gave a polynomial growth lower-bound for the number of nodal domains of a Hecke-Maass cuspform in a compact part of the modular surface, assuming a Lindel\"of hypothesis. That was a consequence of a topological argument and…

We give in this paper bounds for the Morse indices of a large class of simple geodesics on a surface with a generic metric. To our knowledge these bounds are the first that use only the generic hypothesis on the metric.

In this paper, we study locally strongly convex affine hypersurfaces with vanishing Weyl curvature tensor and semi-parallel cubic form relative to the Levi-Civita connection of affine metric. As the main result, we classify such…

We give an asymptotic expansion for the density of del Pezzo surfaces of degree four in a certain Birch Swinnerton-Dyer family violating the Hasse principle due to a Brauer-Manin obstruction. Under the assumption of Schinzel's hypothesis…

The goal is to verify the Hodge conjecture (and some related conjectures) for certain moduli spaces. It is shown that the (generalized) Hodge conjecture holds for the projective moduli spaces of vector bundles over an abelian or K3 surface…

We study the geometry of the moduli space of planes in a general cubic 5-fold and its deformation. We show that this moduli space is a smooth projective surface whose canonical bundle is ample. We also show that the variation of degree 1…

We show that any universal quasigeodesic cone of uniformly coarse median spaces admits a canonical coarse median structure. As an application, we recover a result of Bowditch which states that any hierarchically hyperbolic space admits a…

We introduce the polygonalisation complex of a surface, a cube complex whose vertices correspond to polygonalisations. This is a geometric model for the mapping class group and it is motivated by works of Harer, Mosher and Penner. Using…

We show that if two closed hyperbolic surfaces (not necessarily orientable or even connected) have the same Laplace spectrum, then for every length they have the same number of orientation-preserving geodesics and the same number of…

This article deals with the set of closed geodesics on complete finite type hyperbolic surfaces. For any non-negative integer $k$, we consider the set of closed geodesics that self-intersect at least $k$ times, and investigate those of…

Marden and Strebel established the Heights Theorem for integrable holomorphic quadratic differentials on parabolic Riemann surfaces. We extends the validity of the Heights Theorem to all surfaces whose fundamental group is of the first…
