In this paper, we investigate the possibility of constructing isomonodromic deformations of logarithmic connections on curves by using ramified covers. We give new examples and prove a classification result.

Let $E/k$ be a non-isotrivial elliptic curve over a global function field $k$ of characteristic $p>3$, and $G\subset \mathrm{Gal}(k^{\mathrm{sep}}/k)$ be a topologically finitely generated subgroup. We prove that if $E/k$ has analytic rank…

We give a derivation of conductivities in certain classes of graphs based on knowing certain subdeterminants of the response matrix, mainly utilizing the boundary edge and boundary spike formulas given in Curtis' and Morrow's book.

We define ket abelian schemes, ket 1-motives, and ket log 1-motives, and formulate duality theory for these objects. Then we show that tamely ramified strict 1-motives over a complete discrete valuation field can be extended to ket log…

Assuming the Hasse--Weil conjecture and the generalized Riemann hypothesis for the $L$-functions of the elliptic curve, we give an upper bound of the average analytic rank of elliptic curves over the number field with a level structure such…

Let $C$ be a curve of genus at least three defined over a number field, and let $r$ be the rank of the rational points of its Jacobian. Under mild hypotheses on $r$, recent results by Katz, Rabinoff, Zureick-Brown, and Stoll bound the…

It is shown how a selection of prominent results in singularity theory and differential geometry can be deduced from one theorem, the Rank Theorem for maps between spaces of power series.

Let $L/K$ be an extension of number fields that is ramified above $p$. We give a new obstruction to the descent to $K$ of smooth projective varieties defined over $L$. The obstruction is a matrix of $p$-adic numbers that we call ``ramified…

We examine conditions under which there exists a non-constant family of Galois branched covers of curves over an algebraically closed field $k$ of fixed degree and fixed ramification locus, under a notion of equivalence derived from…

We examine logarithmic connections with vanishing p-curvature on smooth curves by studying their kernels, describing them in terms of formal local decomposition. We then apply our results in the case of connections of rank 2 on P^1,…

We study $p$-group Galois covers $X \rightarrow \mathbb{P}^1$ with only one fully ramified point. These covers are important because of the Katz-Gabber compactification of Galois actions on complete local rings. The sequence of ramification…

For any number field $K$ and integer $0\leq r \leq 4$, we prove that there are infinitely many elliptic curves over $K$ of rank $r$. Our elliptic curves are obtained by specializing well-chosen nonisotrivial elliptic curves over the…

Let X be a smooth projective curve of genus g over a finite field F_q of characteristic p. Consider primes l different from p. We formulate some questions related to a well known counting formula of Drinfeld. Drinfeld counts rank 2,…

We compute the characteristic cycle of a rank one sheaf on a smooth surface over a perfect field of positive characteristic. We construct a canonical lifting on the cotangent bundle of Kato's logarithmic characteristic cycle using…

We consider simply connected log-Riemann surfaces with a finite number of ramification points. We prove that these surfaces are biholomorphic to C with uniformizations given by entire functions of the form F (z) = \int Q(z) e^{P(z)} dz…

For a smooth surface X over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic, we consider the ramification of an Artin-Schreier extension of X. A ramification at a point of codimension 1 of X is understood by the Swan conductor. A…

Transductions are a general formalism for expressing transformations of graphs (and more generally, of relational structures) in logic. We prove that a graph class $\mathscr{C}$ can be $\mathsf{FO}$-transduced from a class of bounded-height…

Building on recent work of the authors, we use degenerations to chains of elliptic curves to prove two cases of the Aprodu-Farkas strong maximal rank conjecture, in genus $22$ and $23$. This constitutes a major step forward in Farkas'…

In this work we develop, through a governing field, genus theory for a number field $\K$ with tame ramification in $T$ and splitting in $S$, where $T$ and $S$ are finite disjoint sets of primes of $\K$. This approach extends that initiated…

We prove estimates for the Betti numbers of constructible sheaves in characteristic p>0 depending only on their rank, stratification and wild ramification. In particular, given a smooth proper variety of dimension n over an algebraically…
