We give an ADHM description of the Quot scheme of points ${\rm Quot}_{\mathbb{C}^{n}}(c,r),$ of length $c$ and rank $r$ on affine spaces $\mathbb{C}^{n}$ which naturally extends both Baranovsky's representation of the punctual Quot scheme…
We give explicit formulas for the number of points on reductions of elliptic curves with complex multiplication by any imaginary quadratic field. We also find models for CM $\mathbf{Q}$-curves in certain cases. This generalizes earlier…
In this notes, we will give some remarks on the results in Rational points of universal curves by Hain. In particular, we consider the universal curves $\mathcal{M}_{g,n+1}\to \mathcal{M}_{g,n}$ and the sections of their algebraic…
The purpose of this note is to provide some applications of Faltings' recent proof of S. Lang's conjecture to smooth plane curves. Let $C$ be a smooth plane curve defined by an equation of degree $d$ with integral coefficients. We show that…
Aim of this paper is to show that it makes sense to write the continuity equation on a metric measure space $(X,d,m)$ and that absolutely continuous curves $\mu_t$ w.r.t. the distance $W_2$ can be completely characterized as solutions of…
In this paper, we study bounds for the number of rational points on twists C' of a fixed curve C over a number field K, under the condition that the group of K-rational points on the Jacobian J' of C' has rank smaller than the genus of C'.…
We prove a uniform version of a finiteness conjecture due to Rasmussen and Tamagawa in the case of CM abelian varieties. This extends recent results concerning CM elliptic curves to CM abelian varieties of arbitrary dimension.
This is an extended version of an invited lecture I gave at the Journees Arithmetiques in St. Etienne in July 2009. We discuss the state of the art regarding the problem of finding the set of rational points on a (smooth projective)…
We consider bounded 2-metric spaces satisfying an additional axiom, and show that a contractive mapping has either a fixed point or a fixed line.
We show that for any two convex curves $C_1$ and $C_2$ in $\mathbb R^d$ parametrized by $[0,1]$ with opposite orientations, there exists a hyperplane $H$ with the following property: For any $t\in [0,1]$ the points $C_1(t)$ and $C_2(t)$ are…
We prove that the group $\mathrm{QI}^{+}(\mathbb{R})$ of orientation-preserving quasi-isometries of the real line is a left-orderable, non-simple group, which cannot act effectively on the real line $\mathbb{R}.$
In this article, we prove the existence of common fixed points for a pair of maps on a $q$-spherically complete $T_0$-ultra-quasi-metric space. The present article is a generalization, in the assymmetric setting of the paper of Rao et…
It has recently been observed that, in contrast to the classical case, holomorphic structures on line bundles over the quantum projective line are not uniquely determined by degree. We formulate a fixed-point-theoretic framework for the…
Let C be an algebraic curve defined over a number field K, of positive genus and without K-rational points. We conjecture that there exists some extension field L over which C violates the Hasse principle, i.e., has points everywhere…
There are two classical theorems related to algebraic values of the j-invariant: Schneider's theorem and the St\'ephanois theorem. Schneider's theorem for the j-invariant states that the transcendence degree $\operatorname{trdeg}…
In this paper, first some results of [5] are extended for subadditive separating maps between C(X;E) and C(Y;E), such that E is a unital Banach algebra. Then we give some conditions under which a strongly subadditive map has a unique fixed…
We construct an irreducible rational curve of degree 10 in $CP^2$ which has 12 triple points and a union of three rational quartics with 19 triple points. This gives counter-examples to a conjecture by Dimca, Harbourne, and Sticlaru. We…
It is proved that the Continuum Hypothesis implies that any sequence of rapid P-points of length $<{\mathfrak c}^{+}$ which is increasing with respect to the Rudin-Keisler ordering is bounded above by a rapid P-point. This is an improvement…
There are two invariants associated to any line arrangement: the freeness defect $\nu(C)$ and an upper bound for it, denoted by $\nu'(C)$, coming from a recent result by Uli Walther. We show that $\nu'(C)$ is combinatorially determined, at…
Let $C$ be a smooth projective absolutely irreducible curve of genus $g \geq 2$ over a number field $K$ of degree $d$, and denote its Jacobian by $J$. Denote the Mordell--Weil rank of $J(K)$ by $r$. We give an explicit and practical…
