We apply a symbolic approach of the general quadratic decomposition of polynomial sequences - presented in a previous article referenced herein - to polynomial sequences fulfilling specific orthogonal conditions towards two given…

We consider heights of horizontal irreducible divisors on an arithmetic surface with respect to some hermitian line bundle. We obtain both lower and upper bounds for these heights. The results are different and sometimes stronger that those…

We use recent results on algorithms for Markov decision problems to show that a canonical form for a generalized P-matrix can be computed, in some important cases, by a strongly polynomial algorithm.

We explicitly compute canonical liftings modulo $p^2$ in a sense of Achinger--Zdanowicz of Dwork hypersurfaces. The computation involves studying a compatibility between Hodge filtrations and a crystalline Frobenius. In particular,…

The Kawaguchi--Silverman conjecture predicts that if $f\colon X \dashrightarrow X$ is a dominant rational-self map of a projective variety over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$, and $P$ is a $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$-point of $X$ with Zariski-dense…

We develop a new tool, namely polynomial and linear algebraic methods, for studying systems of word equations. We illustrate its usefulness by giving essentially simpler proofs of several hard problems. At the same time we prove extensions…

By introducing a class of meromorphic functions with certain ramification structures on $\Bbb{CP}^1$, a new method for the determination of the Legendre representation of elliptic curves with complex multiplication is introduced. These…

Let A be a principally polarized abelian threefold over a perfect field k, not isomorphic to a product over the algebraic closure of k. There exists a canonical extension k' of k, of degree 1 or 2, such that A becomes isomorphic to a…

Polynomial algebra offers a standard approach to handle several problems in geometric modeling. A key tool is the discriminant of a univariate polynomial, or of a well-constrained system of polynomial equations, which expresses the…

We generalize the group law of curves of degree three by chords and tangents to the Jacobi variety of a hyperelliptic curve. In the case of genus 2 we accomplish the construction by a cubic parabola. We derive explicit rational formulas for…

We describe a new method of producing equations for the canonical component of representation variety of a knot group into $PSL_2(\mathbb{C})$. Unlike known methods, this one does not involve any polyhedral decomposition or triangulation of…

We construct an integral model for counting Campana points of bounded height on diagonal hypersurfaces of degree greater than one, and give an asymptotic formula for their number, generalising work by Browning and Yamagishi. The paper also…

We develop geometry-of-numbers methods to count orbits in coregular vector spaces having bounded invariants over any global field. We apply these techniques to bound the average ranks and determine average Selmer group sizes of elliptic…

In this paper we present a new method of solving certain quartic and higher degree homogeneous polynomial diophantine equations in four variables. The method can also be extended to solve simultaneous homogeneous polynomial diophantine…

In this paper we describe an algorithm for the computation of canonical forms of finite subsets of $\mathbb{Z}^d$, up to affinities over $\mathbb{Z}$. For fixed dimension $d$, this algorithm has worst-case asymptotic complexity $O(n \log^2…

We obtain new results on the geometry of Hilbert modular varieties in positive characteristic and morphisms between them. Using these results and methods of rigid geometry, we develop a theory of canonical subgroups for abelian varieties…

In this paper, we introduce Jacobi polynomial generalizations of several classical invariants in coding theory over finite fields, specifically, the higher and extended weight enumerators, and we establish explicit correspondences between…

Let n be a positive integer. We consider the Sylvester Resultant of f and g, where f is a generic polynomial of degree 2 or 3 and g is a generic polynomial of degree n. If f is a quadratic polynomial, we find the resultant's height. If f is…

We obtain a more precise version of an asymptotic formula of A. Dubickas for the number of monic Eisenstein polynomials of fixed degree $d$ and of height at most $H$, as $H\to \infty$. In particular, we give an explicit bound for the error…

Let $K/\mathbb{Q}$ be a finite extension. We prove that the minimal height of polynomials of degree $n$ of which all roots are in $K^\times$ increases exponentially in $n$. We determine the implied constant exactly for totally real $K$ and…
