Tate's theorem (Invent. Math. 1966)implies that the Tate conjecture holds for any abelian variety over a finite field whose Q_l-algebra of Tate classes is generated by those of degree 1. We construct families of abelian varieties over…

In this paper we prove some generalizations of the classical Hasse-Davenport product relation for certain arithmetic factors defined on p-adic fields, among them one finds the epsilon-factors appearing in Tate's thesis. We then show that…

Let $G = \mathrm{SCl}_n(q)$ be a quasisimple classical group with $n$ large, and let $x_1, \dots, x_k \in G$ random, where $k \geq q^C$. We show that the diameter of the resulting Cayley graph is bounded by $q^2 n^{O(1)}$ with probability…

Given a smooth geometrically connected curve $C$ over a field $k$ and a smooth commutative group scheme $G$ of finite type over the function field $K$ of $C$ we study the Tate--Shafarevich groups given by elements of $H^1(K,G)$ locally…

We study value semigroups associated to germs of maps $\mathbb{C} \rightarrow \mathbb{C}^3$ with fixed ramification profiles in a distinguished point. We then apply our analysis to deduce that Severi varieties of unicuspidal rational…

Tate's algorithm tells us that for an elliptic curve $E$ over a local field $K$ of residue characteristic $\geq 5$, $E/K$ has potentially good reduction if and only if $\text{ord}(j_E)\geq 0$. It also tells us that when $E/K$ is semistable…

Every complex plane curve C determines a subscheme S of the $P^8$ of 3x3 matrices, whose projective normal cone (PNC) captures subtle invariants of C. In "Limits of PGL(3)-translates of plane curves, I" we obtain a set-theoretic description…

Assuming natural variational realization conjectures, we give uniform bounds for the obstruction to the integral Tate conjecture in 1-dimensional families of algebraic varieties over an infinite finitely generated field.

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field with $q$ elements. For $a,b,c,d,e,f \in \mathbb{F}_q^{\times}$, denote by $C_{a,b,c,d,e,f}$ the family of algebraic curves over $\mathbb{F}_q$ given by the affine equation \begin{align*}…

In this paper, we study $C^{\zeta}$-calculus on generalized Cantor sets, which have self-similar properties and fractional dimensions that exceed their topological dimensions. Functions with fractal support are not differentiable or…

We study the Mumford--Tate conjecture for hyperk\"{a}hler varieties. We show that the full conjecture holds for all varieties deformation equivalent to either an Hilbert scheme of points on a K3 surface or to O'Grady's ten dimensional…

We study the Picard rank of smooth toric Fano varieties possessing families of minimal rational curves of given degree. We discuss variants of a conjecture of Chen-Fu-Hwang and prove a version of their statement that recovers the original…

We classify the pairs $(C,G)$ where $C$ is a seminormal curve over an arbitrary field $k$ and $G$ is a smooth connected algebraic group acting faithfully on $C$ with a dense orbit, and we determine the equivariant Picard group of $C$. We…

We formulate necessary and sufficient conditions for an arbitrary discrete probability distribution to factor according to an undirected graphical model, or a log-linear model, or other more general exponential models. This result…

Using an explicit family of plane quartic curves, we prove the existence of a genus 3 curve over any finite field of characteristic 3 whose number of rational points stays within a fixed distance from the Hasse-Weil-Serre upper bound. We…

A collection C of subgroups of a finite group G can give rise to three different standard formulas for the cohomology of G in terms of either: the subgroups in C; or their centralizers; or their normalizers. We give a short but systematic…

We provide a positive answer to Zariski's conjecture for families of singular surfaces in $\mathbb C^3,$ under the condition that the family has a smooth normalisation. As a corollary of the result, we obtain a surprising characterization…

We produce first examples of p-local height three TAF homology theories. The corresponding one-dimensional formal groups arise as split summands of the formal groups of certain abelian three-folds, the Shimura variety of which can be…

Given a finite field k of characteristic at least 5, we show that the Tate conjecture holds for K3 surfaces defined over the algebraic closure of k if and only if there are only finitely many K3 surfaces over each finite extension of k.

This paper concerns the Algebraic Sato--Tate and Sato--Tate conjectures, based on Serre's original motivic formulation, with an eye towards explicit computations of Sato--Tate groups. We build on the algebraic framework for the Sato--Tate…
