We introduce and study semi-equational and weakly semi-equational theories, generalizing equationality in stable theories (in the sense of Srour) to the NIP context. In particular, we establish a connection to distality via one-sided strong…

This article presents three characterizations of the weak factorization systems on finitely complete categories that interpret intensional dependent type theory with Sigma-, Pi-, and Id-types. The first characterization is that the weak…

We study the number of rational points of smooth projective curves over finite fields in some relative situations in the spirit of a previous paper from an euclidean point of vue. We prove some kinds of relative Weil bounds, derived from…

In this survey we discuss the problem of the existence of rational curves on complex surfaces, both in the K\"ahler and non-K\"ahler setup. We systematically go through the Enriques--Kodaira classification of complex surfaces to highlight…

This paper studies a variational obstacle avoidance problem on complete Riemannian manifolds. That is, we minimize an action functional, among a set of admissible curves, which depends on an artificial potential function used to avoid…

One of the major results of [N. Robertson and P. D. Seymour. Graph minors. XIII. The disjoint paths problem. J. Combin. Theory Ser. B, 63(1):65--110, 1995], also known as the weak structure theorem, revealed the local structure of graphs…

Over the function field of a complex algebraic curve, strong approximation off a non-empty finite set of places holds for the complement of a codimension $2$ closed subset in a homogeneous space under a semisimple algebraic group, and for…

We study the family of rational curves on arbitrary smooth hypersurfaces of low degree using tools from analytic number theory.

We investigate existence and multiplicity of weak solutions for fourth-order problems involving the Leray-Lions type operators in variable exponent spaces and improve a result of Bonanno and Chinn\`{i} (2011). We use variational methods and…

The weak convergence of orthogonal polynomials is given under conditions on the asymptotic behaviour of the coefficients in the three-term recurrence relation. The results generalize known results and are applied to several systems of…

In the 1980's Colliot-Th\'{e}l\`{e}ne, Sansuc, Kato and S. Saito proposed conjectures related to local-to-global principles for $0$-cycles on arbitrary smooth projective varieties over a number field. We give some evidence for these…

We prove new cases of Vojta's conjectures for surfaces in the context of function fields, with truncation equal to one and providing an effective explicit description of the exceptional set. We also prove a general and explicit result…

A general type of ray class fields of global function fields is investigated. The systematic computation of their genera leads to new examples of curves over finite fields with comparatively many rational points.

For a large class of isotrivial rational elliptic surfaces (with section), we show that the set of rational points is dense for the Zariski topology, by carefully studying variations of root numbers among the fibers of these surfaces. We…

We show that points on $C^{1}$ curves which are badly approximable by rationals in a number field form a winning set in the sense of W. M. Schmidt. As a consequence, we obtain a number field version of Schmidt's conjecture.

Weak-type quasi-norms are defined using the mean oscillation or the mean of a function on dyadic cubes, providing discrete analogues and variants of the corresponding quasi-norms on the upper half-space previously considered in the…

Fine-grained complexity theory is the area of theoretical computer science that proves conditional lower bounds based on the Strong Exponential Time Hypothesis and similar conjectures. This area has been thriving in the last decade, leading…

Weak KAM theory for discount Hamilton-Jacobi equations and corresponding discount Lagrangian/Hamiltonian dynamics is developed. Then it is applied to error estimates for viscosity solutions in the vanishing discount process. The main…

We provide a mini-guide to some of the possible manifestations of weak scale supersymmetry. For each of six scenarios we provide a brief description of the theoretical underpinnings, the adjustable parameters, a qualitative description of…

We study rational points on a smooth variety X over a complete local field K with algebraically closed residue field, and models of X with tame quotient singularities. If a model of X is the quotient of a Galois action on a weak N\'eron…
