The Grothendieck--Katz $p$-curvature conjecture predicts that an arithmetic differential equation whose reduction modulo $p$ has vanishing $p$-curvatures for {\em almost all} $p,$ has finite monodromy. It is known that it suffices to prove…

In this article we prove that linear differential equations with only algebraic solutions have zero $m$-curvature modulo $p^k$ for all except a finite number of primes $p$ and all $k,m\in\mathbb N$ with ${\rm ord}_pm!\geq k$. This provides…

Grothendieck's conjecture on p-curvatures predicts that an arithmetic differential equation has a full set of algebraic solutions if and only if its reduction in positive characteristic has a full set of rational solutions for almost all…

We investigate an analogue of the Grothendieck $p$-curvature conjecture, where the vanishing of the $p$-curvature is replaced by the stronger condition, that the module with connection mod $p$ underlies a $\mathcal{D}_X$-module structure.…

We develop an effective version of Kronecker's Theorem on the splitting of polynomials, based on asymptotic arguments proposed by the Chudnovsky brothers, coming from Hermite-Pad\'e approximation. In conjunction with Honda's proof of the…

Let $X\to S$ be a smooth projective morphism. Katz proved the Grothendieck-Katz $p$-curvature conjecture for the Gauss-Manin connection on the $i$-th cohomology of $X/S$: if its $p$-curvature vanishes mod $p$ for infinitely many $p$, then…

Originally conjectured unpublished by Grothendieck, then formulated precisely by Katz, the $p$-curvature conjecture is a local-global principle for algebraic differential equations. It is at present open, though various cases are known.…

In the present paper, we give a q-analogue of the Grothendieck conjecture on p-curvatures for q-difference equations defined over the field of rational function K(x), where K is a finite extension of a field of rational functions k(q), with…

In this short note, we prove the equivalence of Grothendieck-Katz $p$-curvature Conjecture with Conjecture F in Ekedahl-Shepherd-Barron-Taylor. More precisely, we show that Conjecture F implies the $p$-curvature conjecture, and that the…

A p-typical cover of a connected scheme on which p=0 is a finite etale cover whose monodromy group (i.e., the Galois group of its normal closure) is a p-group. The geometry of such covers exhibits some unexpectedly pleasant behaviors;…

The monodromy conjecture is a mysterious open problem in singularity theory. Its original version relates arithmetic and topological/geometric properties of a multivariate polynomial $f$ over the integers, more precisely, poles of the…

Using Margulis's results on lattices in semisimple Lie groups, we prove the Grothendieck-Katz $p$-Curvature Conjecture for certain locally symmetric varieties, including the moduli space of abelian varieties ${\cal A}_g$ when $g > 1.$

We give a proof of the Gromov compactness theorem using the language of stable curves (i.e. cusp-curve of Gromov, or stable maps of Kontsevich and Manin) in general setting: An almost complex structure on a target manifold is only…

We prove that the small quantum t-connection on a closed monotone symplectic manifold is of exponential type and has quasi-unipotent regularized monodromies at t=0. This answers a conjecture of Katzarkov-Kontsevich-Pantev and…

One proves the Crew-Tsuzuki "p-adic local monodromy conjecture" (for local fields of characteristic p>0).

In this paper we formulate and prove a combinatorial version of the section conjecture for finite groups acting on finite graphs. We apply this result to the study of rational points and show that finite descent is the only obstruction to…

The Tate conjecture has two parts: i) Tate classes are linear combination of algebraic classes, ii) semisimplicity of Galois representations (for smooth projective varieties). B. Moonen proved that i) implies ii) in characteristic 0, using…

The monodromy conjecture is an umbrella term for several conjectured relationships between poles of zeta functions, monodromy eigenvalues and roots of Bernstein-Sato polynomials in arithmetic geometry and singularity theory. Even the…

We investigate certain finiteness questions that arise naturally when studying approximations modulo prime powers of p-adic Galois representations coming from modular forms. We link these finiteness statements with a question by K. Buzzard…

A log generic hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^n$ with respect to a birational modification of $\mathbb{P}^n$ is by definition the image of a generic element of a high power of an ample linear series on the modification. A log very-generic…
