A primitive prime divisor of an element a_n of a sequence (a_1,a_2,a_3,...) is a prime P that divides a_n, but does not divide a_m for all m < n. The Zsigmondy set Z of the sequence is the set of n such that a_n has no primitive prime…

We construct a Zariski decomposition for cycle classes of arbitrary codimension. This decomposition is an analogue of well-known constructions for divisors. Examples illustrate how Zariski decompositions of cycle classes reflect the…

We use explicit blow-ups and computations of birational Fujita-Zariski decompositions to determine generic infinitesimal Newton-Okounkov bodies for box-product ample polarizations on three classes of spaces: product between a curve and the…

In this note, we study the differentiability of the arithmetic volumes along arithmetic R-divisors, and give some equality conditions for the Brunn-Minkowski inequality for arithmetic volumes over the cone of nef and big arithmetic…

We prove that any surjective self-morphism with $\delta_f > 1$ on a potentially dense smooth projective surface defined over a number field $K$ has densely many $L$-rational points for a finite extension $L/K$.

We study the restricted volume of effective divisors, its properties and the relationship with the related notion of reduced volume, defined via multiplier ideals, and with the asymptotic intersection number. We build upon the fundamental…

Let $X$ be a projective normal surface over a number field $K$. Let $H$ be the sum of four properly intersecting ample effective divisors on $X$. We show that any set of $S$-integral points in $X-H$ is not Zariski dense.

We classify birational maps of projective smooth surfaces whose non-critical periodic points are Zariski dense. In particular, we show that if the first dynamical degree is greater than one, then the periodic points are Zariski dense.

We prove that a cyclic cover of a smooth complex projective variety is Brody hyperbolic if its branch divisor is a generic small deformation of a large enough multiple of a Brody hyperbolic base-point-free ample divisor. We also show the…

We give a condition for certain divisors on the blow up of P^3 at points in general position to be ample. The result extends a theorem of G. Xu on the blow up of the projective plane.

Given a dominant rational self-map on a projective variety over a number field, we can define the arithmetic degree at a rational point. It is known that the arithmetic degree at any point is less than or equal to the first dynamical…

We prove the Zariski dense orbit conjecture in positive characteristic for endomorphisms of $\mathbb{G}_a^N$ defined over $\overline{\mathbb{F}_p}$.

We generalize certain arguments in Zariski's irregularity theorem on cyclic multiple planes.

Using currents with minimal singularities, we construct pointwise minimal multiplicities for a real pseudo-effective $(1,1)$-class $\alpha$ on a compact complex $n$-fold $X$, which are the local obstructions to the numerical effectivity of…

We study singularity of effective $\mathbb{Q}$-divisors on products of projective spaces of multidegree $(1,1...,1).$ This generalizes works of Bath, Musta{\c{t}}{\u{a}} and Walther on singularity of square-free polynomials. We also give a…

We generalize Kawamata's product formula for volumes of canonical divisors to arbitrary divisors using Okounkov bodies

There is a close relationship between the embedded topology of complex plane curves and the (group-theoretic) arithmetic of elliptic curves. In a recent paper, we studied the topology of some arrangements of curves which include a special…

In 1983 Silverman and Tate showed that the set of points in a 1-dimensional family of abelian varieties where a section of infinite order has `small height' is finite. We conjecture a generalisation to higher-dimensional families, where we…

In the moduli space of degree d polynomials, the special subvarieties are those cut out by critical orbit relations, and then the special points are the post-critically finite polynomials. It was conjectured that in the moduli space of…

We give some natural sufficient conditions for balls in a metric space to have small intersection. Roughly speaking, this happens when the metric space is (i) expanding and (ii) well-spread, and (iii) a certain random variable on the…
