Let $p$ be a fixed odd prime. Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over a number field $F$ with good supersingular reduction at all primes above $p$. We study both the classical and plus/minus Selmer groups over the cyclotomic…
We derive, for all prime moduli p except those in a very thin set, an upper bound for the least prime primitive root (mod p) of order of magnitude a constant power of log p. The improvement over previous results, where the upper bound was…
We show that a genus $2$ curve over a number field whose jacobian has complex multiplication will usually have stable bad reduction at some prime. We prove this by computing the Faltings height of the jacobian in two different ways. First,…
We investigate a generalization of Calder\'on's problem of recovering the conductivity coefficient in a conductivity equation from boundary measurements. As a model equation we consider the p-conductivity equation with p strictly between…
We consider the question of which quadratic fields have elliptic curves with everywhere good reduction. By revisiting work of Setzer, we expand on congruence conditions that determine the real and imaginary quadratic fields with elliptic…
Ekedahl showed that the genus of a curve in characteristic $p>0$ with zero Cartier operator is bounded by $p(p-1)/2$. We show the bound $p+p(p-1)/2$ in case the rank of the Cartier operator is 1, improving a result of Re.
We prove that every irreducible component of semi-regular loci of effective line bundles in the Picard scheme of a smooth projective variety has at worst rational singularities. This generalizes Kempf's result on rational singularities of…
In 2009, W. D. Banks and I. E. Shparlinski studied the average densities of primes $p \leq x$ for which the reductions of elliptic curves of small height modulo $p$ satisfy certain arithmetic properties, namely cyclicity and divisibility of…
In this article, we study two important properties of ${\rm{sym}}^3$ transfers of the automorphic representation $\pi$ associated to a modular form. First we compute the conductor of ${\rm{sym}}^3(\pi)$. Then we detect the types of local…
We define a complete metric structure $\mathfrak{d}_q^p$ on the family $\text{PL}_q^p(\mathbb{R}^n)$ of probability measures with densities in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)$ and finite $q$-moments. We establish the existence of generalized minimizing…
We will describe an algorithm to construct an elliptic curve $E_{f_q}$ over some prime field $\mathbb{F}_p$ such that such that $|E_{f_q}(\mathbb{F}_p)| = f_q$, where $f_q$ is a probable Fibonacci prime for some prime index $q$. The…
We determine the minimal bi-degree(s) of an irreducible filling curve over $\mathbb{F}_q$ for $\mathbb{P}^1\times \mathbb{P}^1$. It is $(q+1, q+1)$ if $q\neq 2$, and they are $(4,3)$ and $(3,4)$ if $q=2$.
This note pursues the techniques of modified psi classes on the stack of stable maps (cf. [Graber-Kock-Pandharipande]) to give concise solutions to the characteristic number problem of rational curves in P^2 or P^1 x P^1 with a cusp or a…
Let $p$ be a prime. We study non-constant morphisms $f:X_0(p)_\mathbb \to Y$, where $Y/\mathbb Q$ is a curve of genus $\geq 2$. We prove that for $p<3000$ such an $f$ of degree $d>1$ must be isomorphic to the quotient map $X_0(p)\to…
We prove the $L^p (p > 3/2)$ boundedness of the directional Hilbert transform in the plane relative to measurable vector fields which are constant on suitable Lipschitz curves.
We show that if $E/\mathbb{Q}$ is an elliptic curve without complex multiplication and for which there is a prime $q$ such that the image of $\bar{\rho}_{E,q}$ is contained in the normaliser of a split Cartan subgroup of…
In this paper the family of elliptic curves over \Q given by the equation E_{p}: Y^2=(X-p)^3+X^3+(X+p)^3 where p is a prime number, is studied. It is shown that the maximal rank of the elliptic curves is at most 3 and some conditions under…
We compute the Picard group of the moduli stack of smooth curves of genus $g$ for $3\leq g\leq 5$, using methods of equivariant intersection theory. We base our proof on the computation of some relations in the integral Chow ring of certain…
For a given point P in the group of K-rational points E(K) of an elliptic curve, we consider the sequence of values (F_1(P),F_2(P),F_3(P),...) of the division polynomials of E at P. If K is a finite field, we prove that the sequence is…
Let C be a hyperelliptic curve of good reduction defined over a discrete valuation field K with algebraically closed residue field k. Assume moreover that char k \ne 2. Given d \in K^*\K^*2, we introduce an explicit description of the…
