We initiate a systematic quantitative study of subsets of rational points that are integral with respect to a weighted boundary divisor on Fano orbifolds. We call the points in these sets Campana points. Earlier work of Campana and…

Manin's conjecture predicts the asymptotic behavior of the number of rational points of bounded height on algebraic varieties. For toric varieties, it was proved by Batyrev and Tschinkel via height zeta functions and an application of the…

This work is motivated by problems on simultaneous Diophantine approximation on manifolds, namely, establishing Khintchine and Jarnik type theorems for submanifolds of R^n. These problems have attracted a lot of interest since Kleinbock and…

In 1991 Campana and Peternell proposed, as a natural algebro-geometric extension of Mori's characterization of the projective space, the problem of classifying the complex projective Fano manifolds whose tangent bundle is nef, conjecturing…

Inspired by a method of La Bret\`eche relying on some unique factorisation, we generalize work of Blomer, Br\"udern, and Salberger to prove Manin's conjecture in its strong form conjectured by Peyre for some infinite family of varieties of…

We prove Zhang's Dynamical Manin-Mumford Conjecture and Dynamical Bogomolov Conjecture for dominant endomorphisms of (P^1)^n. We use the equidistribution theorem for points of small height with respect to an algebraic dynamical system,…

A well-known conjecture of Orlov asks whether the existence of a full exceptional collection implies rationality of the underlying variety. We prove this conjecture for arithmetic toric varieties over general fields. We also investigate a…

The author introduces a conjecture about Makar-Limanov invariants of affine unique factorization domains over a field of characteristic zero. Then the author finds that the conjecture does not always hold when $\mathbbm{k}$ is not…

We formulate a generalization of Vojta's conjecture in terms of log pairs and variants of multiplier ideals. In this generalization, a variety is allowed to have singularities. It turns out that the generalized conjecture for a log pair is…

Let S Q denote x 3 = Q(y 1 ,. .. , y m)z where Q is a primitive positive definite quadratic form in m variables with integer coefficients. This S Q ranges over a class of singular cubic hypersurfaces as Q varies. For S Q we prove (i)…

We prove an asymptotic formula conjectured by Manin for the number of $K$-rational points of bounded height with respect to the anticanonical line bundle for arbitrary smooth projective toric varieties over a number field $K$.

This note discusses some intriguing connections between height bounds on complex K-semistable Fano varieties X and Peyre's conjectural formula for the density of rational points on X. Relations to an upper bound for the smallest rational…

The main goal of this paper is to prove the following two conjectures for genus up to two: 1. Witten's conjecture on the relations between higher spin curves and Gelfand--Dickey hierarchy. 2. Virasoro conjecture for target manifolds with…

We introduce some invariants of Fano varieties and propose a Mukai-type conjecture which characterizes the product of projective spaces. Moreover, we prove that the Ambro--Kawamata effective non-vanishing conjecture implies the Mukai-type…

Let X be a Fano variety of dimension n, pseudoindex i_X and Picard number \rho_X. A generalization of a conjecture of Mukai says that \rho_X(i_X-1)\le n. We prove that the conjecture holds if: a) X has pseudoindex i_X \ge \frac{n+3}{3} and…

Batyrev and Tschinkel's example is a Fermat cubic surface bundle $X$ which is a Fano $5$-fold. It is the first example for which Manin's conjecture can never hold for a proper closed exceptional set. Recently, Lehmann, Sengupta, and…

We establish a near dichotomy between randomness and structure for the point counts of arbitrary projective cubic threefolds over finite fields. Certain "special" subvarieties, not unlike those in the Manin conjectures, dominate. We also…

Some class of sums which naturally include the sums of powers of integers is considered. A number of conjectures concerning a representation of these sums is made.

The Manin conjecture is established for Ch\^atelet surfaces over Q arising as minimal proper smooth models of the surface Y^2+Z^2=f(X) where f is a totally reducible polynomial of degree 3 without repeated roots. These surfaces do not…

We prove Manin's conjecture concerning the distribution of rational points of bounded height, and its refinement by Peyre, for wonderful compactifications of semi-simple algebraic groups over number fields. The proof proceeds via the study…
