The Equidistribution Conjecture is proved for general semiabelian varieties over number fields. Previously, this conjecture was only known in the special case of almost split semiabelian varieties through work of Chambert-Loir. The general…

We consider the least singular value of a large random matrix with real or complex i.i.d. Gaussian entries shifted by a constant $z\in\mathbb{C}$. We prove an optimal lower tail estimate on this singular value in the critical regime where…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety over ${\bf C}$ of dimension $n$ and $\pi\colon {\bf C}^n \rightarrow A$ be the complex uniformisation. Let $X$ be an unbounded subset of ${\bf C}^n$ definable in a suitable o-minimal structure. We give a…

In this work we consider an Abelian O(3) sigma model coupled nonminimally with a gauge field governed by a Maxwell and Chern-Simons terms. Bogomol'nyi equations are constructed for a specific form of the potential and generic nonminimal…

In two earlier articles, we proved that, if the Hodge conjecture is true for ALL CM abelian varieties over the complex numbers, then both the Tate conjecture and the standard conjectures are true for abelian varieties over finite fields.…

This paper contains results concerning a conjecture made by Lang and Silverman predicting a lower bound for the canonical height on abelian varieties of dimension 2 over number fields. The method used here is a local height decomposition.…

We study orbits for rational equivalence of zero-cycles on very general abelian varieties by adapting a method of Voisin to powers of abelian varieties. We deduce that, for $k$ at least $3$, a very general abelian variety of dimension at…

We study a characteristic subgroup of finitely generated groups, consisting of elements with uniform upper bound for word-lengths. For a group $G$, we denote this subgroup by $G_{bound}$. We give sufficient criteria for triviality and…

Let $A$ and $B$ be abelian varieties defined over the function field $k(S)$ of a smooth algebraic variety $S/k.$ We establish criteria, in terms of restriction maps to subvarieties of $S,$ for existence of various important classes of…

We study the minimal dilatation of pseudo-Anosov pure surface braids and provide upper and lower bounds as a function of genus and the number of punctures. For a fixed number of punctures, these bounds tend to infinity as the genus does. We…

Let A be an abelian variety defined over a number field K, and consider the canonical height function attached to a symmetric ample line bundle L on A. We prove that there is a positive lower bound C (depending on A, K, and L) for the…

We prove some sharp regularity results for solutions of classical first order hyperbolic initial boundary value problems. Our two main improvements on the existing litterature are weaker regularity assumptions for the boundary data and…

We study base field extensions of ordinary abelian varieties defined over finite fields using the module theoretic description introduced by Deligne. As applications we give algorithms to determine the minimal field of definition of such a…

Let $K$ be a number field and $A/K$ be an abelian variety of dimension $g$. Assuming that the image $G_{\ell^\infty}$ of the natural Galois representation attached to the Tate module $T_\ell(A)$ is $\operatorname{GSp}_{2g}(\mathbb{Z}_\ell)$…

The classical Mordell-Weil theorem implies that an abelian variety $A$ over a number field $K$ has only finitely many $K$-rational torsion points. This finitude of torsion still holds even over the cyclotomic extension $K^{\rm…

We prove the discreteness of algebraic points (with respect to the Neron-Tate height) on a curve of genus greater than one embedded in his jacobian. This result was conjectured by Bogomolov. We also prove the positivity of the self…

We use results on Dyck words and lattice paths to derive a formula for the exact number of binary words of a given length with a given minimal abelian border length, tightening a bound on that number from Christodoulakis et al. (Discrete…

Given a reduced abelian $p$-group, we give an upper bound on the Scott complexity of the group in terms of its Ulm invariants. For limit ordinals, we show that this upper bound is tight. This gives an explicit sequence of such groups with…

We establish a criterion that ensures a bounded almost complex curve in a bounded almost complex 4-manifold minimizes genus amongst all smooth surfaces that share its homology class and the transverse link on its boundary. An immediate…

The aim of this paper is to extend our old results about Galois action on the torsion points of abelian varieties to the case of (finitely generated) fields of characteristic 2.
