In this paper, we proved two results regarding the arithmetics of separably $\mathbb{A}^1$-connected varieties of rank one. First we proved over a large field, there is an $\mathbb{A}^1$-curve through any rational point of the boundary, if…

We prove new results on the distribution of rational points on ramified covers of abelian varieties over finitely generated fields $k$ of characteristic zero. For example, given a ramified cover $\pi : X \to A$, where $A$ is an abelian…

Let $X$ be a scheme over a field $K$ and let $M_X$ be the intersection of all subfields $L$ of $\bar K$ such that $X$ has a $L$-valued point. In this note we prove that for a variety $X$ over a field $K$ finitely generated over its prime…

This is a review of results obtained by the author concerning the relation between conformally invariant random loops and conformal field theory. This review also attempts to provide a physical context in which to interpret these results by…

In this short note, we will gives several remarks on rational points of varieties whose cotangent bundles are generated by global sections. For example, we will show that if the sheaf of differentials of a projective variety X over a number…

In this paper we study the number of rational points on curves in an ensemble of abelian covers of the projective line: Let $\ell$ be a prime, $q$ a prime power and consider the ensemble $\mathcal{H}_{g,\ell}$ of $\ell$-cyclic covers of…

This is a small note on Manin's 1966 article on rational surfaces over perfect fields, the conjecture he formulates there, and later developments. This text is by no means exhaustive and reflects the author's understanding and interest.…

Let A_K be an abelian variety over a discrete valuation field K. Let A be the Neron model of A_K over the ring of integers O_K of K and A_k its special fibre. We study the set of rational points of the group of components \phi_A of A_k. In…

We obtain an improvement and broad generalisation of a result of N. Ailon and Z. Rudnick (2004) on common zeros of shifted powers of polynomials. Our approach is based on reducing this question to a more general question of counting…

We study the multi-height distribution of rational points of smooth, projective and split toric varieties over $\mathbf{Q}$ using the lift of the number of points to universal torsors.

This article is written with the hope to draw attention to a method that uses integral transforms to find exact values for a large class of convergent series (and, in particular, series of rational terms). We apply the method to some series…

We study for rationally connected varieties $X$ the group of degree 2 integral homology classes on $X$ modulo those which are algebraic. We show that the Tate conjecture for divisor classes on surfaces defined over finite fields implies…

Adopting the approach of [7] we study rational function carrying invariant line fields on the Julia set. In particular, we show that under certain weak conditions all possible measurable invariant line fields of a rational function on its…

In this paper, we study multiplicative dependence of values of polynomials or rational functions over a number field. As an application, we obtain new results on multiplicative dependence in the orbits of a univariate polynomial dynamical…

We study rationality problems for smooth complete intersections of two quadrics. We focus on the three-dimensional case, with a view toward understanding the invariants governing the rationality of a geometrically rational threefold over a…

The present text surveys some relevant situations and results where basic Module Theory interacts with computational aspects of operator algebras. We tried to keep a balance between constructive and algebraic aspects.

In this series of three papers we start to investigate the rational Chow ring of the stack consisting of nodal curves of genus 0, in particular we determine completely the rational Chow ring of the substack consisting of curves with at most…

This article is an overview of the vanishing cycles method in number theory over function fields. We first explain how this works in detail in a toy example, and then give three examples which are relevant to current research. The focus…

In this paper we use an elementary approach by using numerical semigroups (specifically, those with two generators) to give a formula for the number of integral points inside a right-angled triangle with rational vertices. This is the basic…

The paper contains five examples of using cyclic bases of zero-curvature representations in studies of weak and strong Lax pairs, hierarchies of evolution systems, and recursion operators.
