Let $\mathcal{K}:=(K;+,\cdot, D, 0, 1)$ be a differentially closed field of characteristic $0$ with field of constants $C$. In the first part of the paper we explore the connection between Ax-Schanuel type theorems (predimension…

We introduce the class of \emph{Log-Noetherian} (LN) functions. These are holomorphic solutions to algebraic differential equations (in several variables) with logarithmic singularities. We prove an upper bound on the number of solutions…

We prove the Existential Closedness conjecture for the differential equation of the $j$-function and its derivatives. It states that in a differentially closed field certain equations involving the differential equation of the $j$-function…

This thesis pertains to the study of elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations on "thin" structures. The first main objective is to establish the strong and weak low-dimensional counterparts of the parabolic Neumann problem. The…

We give a new construction of noncommutative surfaces via elliptic difference operators, attaching a 1-parameter noncommutative deformation to any projective rational surface with smooth anticanonical curve. The construction agrees with one…

This is a continuation of our previous paper 1502.01744. We examine a class of non-commutative algebras A that depend on an elliptic curve and a translation automorphism of it. They may be defined in terms of the 4-dimensional Sklyanin…

Let $E$ be a modular elliptic curve over a totally real number field $F$. We prove the weak exceptional zero conjecture which links a (higher) derivative of the $p$-adic $L$-function attached to $E$ to certain $p$-adic periods attached to…

In this paper, we prove the following non-linear generalization of the classical Sylvester-Gallai theorem. Let $\mathbb{K}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$, and $\mathcal{F}=\{F_1,\cdots,F_m\} \subset…

Suppose $X$ is a smooth projective scheme of finite type over a field $K$, $\mathcal{E}$ is a locally free ${\mathcal{O}}_{X}$-bimodule of rank 2, $\mathcal{A}$ is the non-commutative symmetric algebra generated by $\mathcal{E}$ and ${\sf…

We define an axiomatic class of L-functions extending the Selberg class. We show in particular that one can recast the traditional conditions of an Euler product, analytic continuation and functional equation in terms of distributional…

Consider a function field $K$ with characteristic $p>0$. We investigate the $\Lambda$-module structure of the Mordell-Weil group of an abelian variety over $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions of $K$, generalizing results due to Lee. Next, we study…

For a fixed $j$-invariant $j_0$ of an elliptic curve without complex multiplication we bound the number of $j$-invariants $j$ that are algebraic units and such that elliptic curves corresponding to $j$ and $j_0$ are isogenous. Our bounds…

Using Godement mean on the Fourier-Stieltjes algebra of a locally compact quantum group we obtain strong separation results for quantum positive-definite functions associated to a subclass of representations, strengthening for example the…

In unpublished notes Pila proposed a Modular Zilber-Pink with Derivatives (MZPD) conjecture, which is a Zilber-Pink type statement for the modular $j$-function and its derivatives. In this article we define D-special varieties, then state…

We study Hardy classes on the disk associated to the equation $\bar\d w=\alpha\bar w$ for $\alpha\in L^r$ with $2\leq r<\infty$. The paper seems to be the first to deal with the case $r=2$. We prove an analog of the M.~Riesz theorem and a…

Given an algebraic differential equation of order greater than one, it is shown that if there is any nontrivial algebraic relation amongst any number of distinct nonalgebraic solutions, along with their derivatives, then there is already…

Let $S=S_{g,p}$ be a compact, orientable surface of genus $g$ with $p$ punctures and such that $d(S):=3g-3+p>0$. The mapping class group $\textup{Mod}_S$ acts properly discontinuously on the Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal T(S)$ of marked…

A result of Habegger shows that there are only finitely many singular moduli such that $j$ or $j-\alpha$ is an algebraic unit. The result uses Duke's Equidistribution Theorem and is thus not effective. For a fixed $j$-invariant $\alpha \in…
