We prove several new results of Ax-Lindemann type for semiabelian varieties over the algebraic closure K of C(t), making heavy use of the Galois theory of logarithmic differential equations. Using related techniques, we also give a…
The aim of this paper is to prove a theorem of Ax-Lindemann type for complex semi-abelian varieties as an application of a big Picard theorem proved by the author in 1981, and then apply it to prove a theorem of classical Manin-Mumford…
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…
This expository paper gives an account of the Pila-Wilkie counting theorem and some of its extensions and generalizations. We use semialgebraic cell decomposition to simplify part of the original proof. We also include complete treatments…
We show that the strategy of point counting in o-minimal structures can be applied to various problems on unlikely intersections that go beyond the conjectures of Manin-Mumford and Andr\'e-Oort. We verify the so-called Zilber-Pink…
We prove in this paper the Ax-Lindemann-Weierstrass theorem for all mixed Shimura varieties and discuss the lower bounds for Galois orbits of special points of mixed Shimura varieties. In particular we reprove a result of Silverberg in a…
We extend to the case of semi-abelian varieties the statements of various variants of the conjecture alla Bogomolov about the non-density of small points of small height in abelian varieties. Inspired by recent work of Ullmo, Zhang and…
In this paper we formulate some conjectures about algebraic flows on Shimura varieties. In the first part of the paper we prove the `logarithmic Ax-Lindemann theorem'. We then prove a result concerning the topological closure of the images…
We prove the Ax-Lindemann-Weierstrass theorem with derivatives for the uniformizing functions of genus zero Fuchsian groups of the first kind. Our proof relies on differential Galois theory, monodromy of linear differential equations, the…
We prove an equidistribution result for small subvarieties of an abelian variety which generalizes the Szpiro-Ullmo-Zhang theorem on equidistribution of small points.
We explain how the Riemann-Roch theorem for divisors on an abelian variety $A$ is related to the reduced norms of the Wedderburn components of $\operatorname{End}^0(A)$ the $\mathbb{Q}$-endomorphism algebra of $A$. We then describe…
This paper centers around proving variants of the Ax-Lindemann-Weierstrass (ALW) theorem for analytic functions which satisfy Schwarzian differential equations. In previous work, the authors proved the ALW theorem for the uniformizers of…
The hyperbolic Ax-Lindemann-Weierstrass conjecture is a functional algebraic independence statement for the uniformizing map of an arithmetic variety. In this paper we provide a proof of this conjecture, generalizing previous work of…
We present a new completely effective proof of the Lindemann-Weierstrass theorem based on algebraic independence methods. Although it is slightly weaker than the best known estimate due to A. Sert, it improves the best estimate due to M.…
We show that the order three algebraic differential equation over ${\mathbb Q}$ satisfied by the analytic $j$-function defines a non-$\aleph_0$-categorical strongly minimal set with trivial forking geometry relative to the theory of…
By implementing jet differential techniques in non-archimedean geometry, we obtain a big Picard type extension theorem, which generalizes a previous result of Cherry and Ru. As applications, we establish two hyperbolicity-related results.…
We recover results by Ullmo-Yafaev and Peterzil-Starchenko on the closure of the image of an algebraic variety in a compact complex torus. Our approach uses directed closed currents and allows us to extend the result for dimension 1 flows…
We solve a case of the Abelian Exponential-Algebraic Closedness Conjecture, a conjecture due to Bays and Kirby, building on work of Zilber, which predicts sufficient conditions for systems of equations involving algebraic operations and the…
We prove the Ax-Lindemann theorem for the coarse moduli space $\mathcal{A}_{g}$ of principally polarized abelian varieties of dimension $g\ge 1$, and affirm the Andr\'e-Oort conjecture unconditionally for $\mathcal{A}_{g}$ for $g\le 6$.
We show that a minimal ideal of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra is either simple or abelian.
