We prove function field versions of the Zilber-Pink conjectures for varieties supporting a variation of Hodge structures. A form of these results for Shimura varieties in the context of unlikely intersections is the following. Let $S$ be a…
These are expanded notes of the mini-courses on Pila's work that Yuri Bilu gave in Basel in April 2011, Yaroslavl in August 2011 and Chennai in February 2012. The topics covered include the Bombieri-Pila theorem, its extensions and…
We remark that Tate's algorithm to determine the minimal model of an elliptic curve can be stated in a way that characterises Kodaira types from the minimum of v(a_i)/i. As an application, we deduce the behaviour of Kodaira types in tame…
We prove under some assumptions that the Tate conjecture holds for products of Fermat varieties of different degrees.
We introduce and discuss a variant of Schanuel conjecture in the framework of the Carlitz exponential function over Tate algebras and allied functions. Another purpose of the present paper is to widen the horizons of possible investigations…
We prove the Shafarevich conjecture for very irregular varieties of dimension less than half the dimension of their Albanese variety, subject to some mild numerical conditions. Our proof relies on the Lawrence-Venkatesh method as in the…
In a recent talk of Robbert Fokkink, some conjectures related to the infinite Tribonacci word were stated by the speaker and the audience. In this note we show how to prove (or disprove) the claims easily in a "purely mechanical" fashion,…
We give a simplified proof of an optimal version of the Ohsawa-Takegoshi $L^2$-extension theorem. We follow the variational proof by Berndtsson-Lempert and use the method in the paper of McNeal-Varolin. As an application, we give an optimal…
We prove a Freiman--Ruzsa-type theorem with polynomial bounds in arbitrary abelian groups with bounded torsion, thereby proving (in full generality) a conjecture of Marton. Specifically, let $G$ be an abelian group of torsion $m$ (meaning…
Most of the assertions in the theory of well ordered sets are quite simple. However, one of its central statements, Zermelo's theorem, stands out of this rule, for its well-known proofs are rather complicated. The aim of the current paper…
In this paper we prove Shapiro's 1958 Conjecture on exponential polynomials, assuming Schanuel's Conjecture.
The main goal of this paper is to generalize Serre-Tate theory of "ordinary" local moduli to Shimura varieties of PEL type. To this end we develop a generalized notion of ordinariness, we prove a number of basic results about this, and we…
In this article, we prove that a version of Tate conjectures for certain Deligne-Lusztig varieties implies the Kudla-Rapoport conjecture for unitary Shimura varieties with maximal parahoric level at unramified primes. Furthermore, we prove…
We present an elementary method for proving enumeration formulas which are polynomials in certain parameters if others are fixed and factorize into distinct linear factors over Z. Roughly speaking the idea is to prove such formulas by…
Let R be an o-minimal field with a proper convex subring V. We axiomatize the class of all structures (R,V) such that k_ind, the corresponding residue field with structure induced from R via the residue map, is o-minimal. More precisely, in…
In this paper we show variant of the spectral theorem using an algebraic Jordan-Schwinger map. The advantage of this approach is that we don't have restriction of normality on the class of operators we consider. On the other side, we have…
The purpose of [1] was as follows. ?We consider special sets of continuants which occur in applications. For these sets we solve the problem of finding maximal and minimal continuants. There are several methods for finding extremum such as…
We prove a theorem which implies a quantum (multiplicative) analogue of the Horn conjecture, and also of the saturation conjecture. We obtain transversality statements for quantum schubert calculus in any characteristic and also determine…
The aim of this survey paper is threefold: (a) to discuss the status of the Morrison-Kawamata cone conjecture, (b) to report on recent developments towards the Abundance Conjecture, and (c) to discuss the nef line bundle version of the…
In this very short note, we give a counterexample to a recent conjecture of Gilmer which would have implied the union-closed conjecture.
