Let $G$ be a simple, simply connected algebraic group over the field of complex numbers. We give a necessary and a sufficient condition for a Schubert variety $X(\tau)$ for which all the higher cohomologies $H^{i}(X(\tau), E)$ vanish for…
We study a new type of normal form at a critical point of an analytic Hamiltonian. Under a Bruno condition on the frequency, we prove a convergence statement to the normal form. Using this result, we prove the Herman invariant tori…
Let F be a finite field of characteristic p. We consider smooth surfaces over F(t) defined by an equation f+tg=0, where f and g are forms of degree d in 4 variables with coefficients in F, with d prime to p. We prove : For such surfaces…
We revisit the abstract framework underlying the fibration method for producing rational points on the total space of fibrations over the projective line. By fine-tuning its dependence on external arithmetic conjectures, we render the…
We study local-global principles for two notions of semi-integral points, termed Campana points and Darmon points. In particular, we develop a semi-integral version of the Brauer-Manin obstruction interpolating between Manin's classical…
We first prove Bosch-L\"utkebohmert-Raynaud's conjectures on existence of global N\'eron models of not necessarily semi-abelian algebraic groups in the perfect residue fields case. We then give a counterexample to the existence in the…
Inspired by a paper of Salberger we give a new proof of Manin's conjecture for toric varieties over imaginary quadratic number fields by means of universal torsor parameterizations and elementary lattice point counting.
We show that a finite-dimensional tame division algebra D over a Henselian field F has a maximal subfield Galois over F if and only if its residue division algebra has a maximal subfield Galois over the residue field of F. This generalizes…
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…
A conjecture of Manin predicts the distribution of K-rational points on certain algebraic varieties defined over a number field K. In recent years, a method using universal torsors has been successfully applied to several hard special cases…
Consider the algebraic dynamics on a torus T=G_m^n given by a matrix M in GL_n(Z). Assume that the characteristic polynomial of M is prime to all polynomials X^m-1. We show that any finite equivariant map from another algebraic dynamics…
If F is a global function field of characteristic p>3, we employ Tate's theory of analytic uniformization to give an alternative proof of a theorem of Igusa describing the image of the natural Galois representation on torsion points of…
The Beilinson--Bloch conjecture is a generalization of the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture, which relates the ranks of Chow groups of smooth projective varieties over global fields to the order of vanishing of $L$-functions. We prove…
Given a finite category T, we consider the functor category [T,A], where A can in particular be any quasi-abelian category. Examples of quasi-abelian categories are given by any abelian category but also by non-exact additive categories as…
We construct motivic invariants of a subvariety of an algebraic torus from its tropicalization and initial degenerations. More specifically, we introduce an invariant of a compactification of such a variety called the "tropical motivic…
Let K be a complete discretely valued field with residue field k. If char(K) = 0, char(k) = 2 and the 2-rank of k is d, we prove that there exists an integer N depending on d such that the u-invariant of any function field in one variable…
An integer may be represented by a quadratic form over each ring of p-adic integers and over the reals without being represented by this quadratic form over the integers. More generally, such failure of a local-global principle may occur…
Serre famously showed that almost all plane conics over $\mathbb{Q}$ have no rational point. We investigate versions of this over global function fields, focusing on a specific family of conics over $\mathbb{F}_2(t)$ which illustrates new…
Over complex numbers, the Fourier-Mukai partners of abelian varieties are well-understood. A celebrated result is Orlov's derived Torelli theorem. In this note, we study the FM-partners of abelian varieties in positive characteristic. We…
We give a systematic method of providing numerical evidence for higher order Stark-type conjectures such as (in chronological order) Stark's conjecture over $\mathbb{Q}$, Rubin's conjecture, Popescu's conjecture, and a conjecture due to…
