We show that if f: X --> Y is a finite, separable morphism of smooth curves defined over a finite field F_q, where q is larger than an explicit constant depending only on the degree of f and the genus of X, then f maps X(F_q) surjectively…
We give upper bounds on the numbers of various classes of polynomials reducible over the integers and over integers modulo a prime and on the number of matrices in SL(n), GL(n) and Sp(2n) with reducible characteristic polynomials, and on…
We introduce the notion of a good map between topological spaces: a continuous map $f:X \to Y$ is *good* if for every non-empty irreducible locally closed subset $U \subseteq X$, there exists a non-empty open subset $W \subseteq Y$ such…
Let $K$ be a $C_1$-field of any characteristic and $X$ a projective variety over $K$. In this article we prove that for a finite Galois extension $L$ of $K$, a simple sheaf with covering datum on $X \times_K L$ descends to a simple sheaf on…
For any elements b,c of a number field K, let G(b,c) denote the backwards orbit of b under the map f_c: C-->C given by f_c(x)=x^2+c. We prove an upper bound on the number of elements of G(b,c) whose degree over K is at most some constant B.…
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero and ${\bar k}$ an algebraic closure of $k$. For a geometrically integral variety $X$ over $k$, we write ${\bar k}(X)$ for the function field of ${\bar X}=X\times_k{\bar k}$. If $X$ has a smooth…
Let $k$ be a nonperfect separably closed field. Let $G$ be a (possibly non-connected) reductive group defined over $k$. We study rationality problems for Serre's notion of complete reducibility of subgroups of $G$. In our previous work, we…
Let K be a number field and A an abelian variety over K. We are interested in the following conjecture of Morita: if the Mumford-Tate group of A does not contain unipotent Q-rational points then A has potentially good reduction at any…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective geometrically irreducible curve over a perfect field $k$ of positive characteristic $p$. Suppose $G$ is a finite group acting faithfully on $X$ such that $G$ has non-trivial cyclic Sylow $p$-subgroups. We show…
Let $k$ be a finitely generated field of characteristic $p>0$ and $X$ a smooth and proper scheme over $k$. Recent works of Cadoret, Hui and Tamagawa show that, if $X$ satisfies the $\ell$-adic Tate conjecture for divisors for every prime…
Let $D \le 2000$ be a positive discriminant such that $F = \mathbf{Q}(\sqrt{D})$ has narrow class one, and $A/F$ an abelian surface of ${\rm GL}_2$-type with everywhere good reduction. Assuming that $A$ is modular, we show that $A$ is…
In this paper, we prove the holomorphic convexity of the covering of a complex projective {normal} variety $X$, which corresponds to the intersection of kernels of reductive representations $\rho:\pi_1(X)\to {\rm GL}_{N}(\mathbb{C})$,…
Let $\mathcal{O}_K$ be a Henselian discrete valuation domain with field of fractions $K$. Assume that $\mathcal{O}_K$ has algebraically closed residue field $k$. Let $E/K$ be an elliptic curve with additive reduction. The semi-stable…
Given a prime $p$, a number field $\K$ and a finite set of places $S$ of $\K$, let $\K_S$ be the maximal pro-$p$ extension of $\K$ unramified outside $S$. Using the Golod-Shafarevich criterion one can often show that $\K_S/\K$ is infinite.…
Let $K$ be a field of characteristic zero, let $G$ be a connected linear $K$-algebraic group, and let $H$ be a connected closed subgroup of $G$. Let $X_c$ be a smooth compactification of $X=G/H$, and let $Y\overset{}{\longrightarrow}X_c$ be…
Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field endowed with a complete non-archimedean norm with valuation ring $R$. Let $f\colon Y\to X$ be a map of $K$-affinoid varieties. In this paper we study the analytic structure of the image $f(Y)\subset…
There is a graph reduction system so that every optimal 1-planar graph can be reduced to an irreducible extended wheel graph, provided the reductions are applied such that the given graph class is preserved. A graph is optimal 1-planar if…
New and old results on closed polynomials, i.e., such polynomials f in K[x_1,...,x_n] that the subalgebra K[f] is integrally closed in K[x_1,...,x_n], are collected. Using some properties of closed polynomials we prove the following…
We prove a local-global principle for the embedding problems of global fields with restricted ramification. By this local-global principle, for a global field $k$, we use only the local information to give a presentation of the maximal…
Let $K=k(C)$ be the function field of a smooth projective curve $C$ over an infinite field $k$, let $X$ be a projective variety over $k$. We prove two results. First, we show with some conditions that a $K$-morphism $\phi: X_K \to X_K$ of…
