Non-separable $D-$dimensional partial differential Schr\"{o}dinger equations are considered at $D=2$ and $D=3$, with the even-parity local potentials $V(x,y,\ldots)$ which are polynomials of degree four (cusp catastrophe resembling case)…

In projective dimension growth results, one bounds the number of rational points of height at most $H$ on an irreducible hypersurface in $\mathbb P^n$ of degree $d>3$ by $C(n)d^2 H^{n-1}(\log H)^{M(n)}$, where the quadratic dependence in…

We consider the set of points in projective $n$-space that generate an extension of degree $e$ over given number field $k$, and deduce an asymptotic formula for the number of such points of absolute height at most $X$, as $X$ tends to…

We show that the problem of finding the measure supported on a compact subset K of the complex plane such that the variance of the least squares predictor by polynomials of degree at most n at a point exterior to K is a minimum, is…

Let $D$ be a non-empty effective divisor on $\mathbb{P}^1$. We show that when ordered by height, any set of $(D,S)$-integral points on $\mathbb{P}^1$ of bounded degree has relative density zero. We then apply this to arithmetic dynamics:…

We prove tight upper bounds on the logarithmic derivative of the independence and matching polynomials of d-regular graphs. For independent sets, this theorem is a strengthening of the results of Kahn, Galvin and Tetali, and Zhao showing…

I provide a systematic construction of points, defined over finite radical extensions, on any Legendre curve over any field of characteristic not equal two. This includes as special case Douglas Ulmer's construction of rational points over…

We develop a method to construct elusive functions using techniques of commutative algebra and algebraic geometry. The key notions of this method are elusive subsets and evaluation mappings. We also develop the effective elimination theory…

Let $f$ be a polynomial over a global field $K$. For each $\alpha$ in $K$ and $N$ in $\mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}$ denote by $K_N(f,\alpha)$ the arboreal field $K(f^{-N}(\alpha))$ and by $D_N(f,\alpha)$ its degree over $K$. It is conjectured that…

Let f : X --> X be a dominant rational map of a projective variety defined over a global field, let d_f be the dynamical degree of f, and let h_X be a Weil height on X relative to an ample divisor. We prove that h_X(f^n(P)) << (d_f + e)^n…

For a faithful linear representation $V$ of a finite group $G$ in coprime characteristic, we show that if the field Noether number $\beta_{\mathrm{field}}$ is the minimum $d$ such that the invariant polynomials of degree $\leq d$ generate…

Given an extension of number fields $E \subset F$ and a projective variety $X$ over $F$, we compare the problem of counting the number of rational points of bounded height on $X$ with that of its Weil restriction over $E$. In particular, we…

Let $v$ be a finite place of a number field $K$ and write $K^{nr,v}$ for the maximal field extension of $K$ in which $v$ is unramified. The purpose of this paper is split up into two parts. The first one generalizes a theorem of Pottmeyer:…

Let $X$ be a projective variety and let $E$ be a reduced divisor. We study the asymptotic growth of the dimension of the space of global sections of powers of a divisor $D$ on $X\backslash E$. We show that it is always bounded by a…

Let $K$ be a function field of characteristic $p\geq0$ or a number field over which the $abc$ conjecture holds, and let $\phi(x)=x^d+c \in K[x]$ be a unicritical polynomial of degree $d\geq2$ with $d \not\equiv 0,1\pmod{p}$. We completely…

Let $X$ be an abelian variety over an algebraically closed field $\mathbf{k}$ and $f$ a quasi-unipotent automorphism of $X$. When $\mathbf{k}$ is the field of complex numbers, Lin, Oguiso, and D.-Q. Zhang provide an explicit formula for the…

Given a finite set of points $S\subset\mathbb{R}^d$, a $k$-set of $S$ is a subset $A \subset S$ of size $k$ which can be strictly separated from $S \setminus A $ by a hyperplane. Similarly, a $k$-facet of a point set $S$ in general position…

Asgarli, Ghioca, and Reichstein proved that if $K$ is a field with $|K|>2$, then for any positive integers $d$ and $n$, and separable field extension $L/K$ with degree $m=\binom{n+d}{d}$, there exists a point $P\in \mathbb{P}^n(L)$ which…

Let $\Sigma(f)$ be critical points of a polynomial $f \in \mathbb{K}[x,y]$ in the plane $\mathbb{K}^2$, where $\mathbb{K}$ is $\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$. Our goal is to study the critical point map $\mathfrak{S}_d$, by sending polynomials…
