We describe an algorithm for listing all elements of bounded height in a given number field.

For a given conic bundle X over a curve C defined over F_q, we count irreducible branch covers of C in X of degree d and height e>>1. As a special case, we get the number of algebraic numbers of degree d and height e over the function field…

We consider the question of when points in tropical affine space uniquely determine a tropical hypersurface. We introduce a notion of multiplicity of points so that this question may be meaningful even if some of the points coincide. We…

We extend our previous work on hypergeometric point count formulas by proving that we can express the number of points on families of Dwork hypersurfaces $$X_{\lambda}^d: \hspace{.1in} x_1^d+x_2^d+\ldots+x_d^d=d\lambda x_1x_2\cdots x_d$$…

We prove an upper bound for the number of rational points of bounded height on irreducible affine hypersurfaces. More precisely, given an irreducible polynomial $f \in \mathbb{Z}[X_1, \dots, X_n]$, we prove an upper bound on the number of…

In this paper, we give an overview of the various general methods in computing the zeta function of an algebraic variety defined over a finite field, with an emphasis on computing the reduction modulo $p^m$ of the zeta function of a…

We construct small models of number fields and deduce a better bound for the number of number fields of given degree and bounded discriminant.

Let $X$ be an algebraic variety, defined over the rationals. This paper gives upper bounds for the number of rational points on $X$, with height at most $B$, for the case in which $X$ is a curve or a surface. In the latter case one excludes…

An important problem in analytic and geometric combinatorics is estimating the number of lattice points in a compact convex set in a Euclidean space. Such estimates have numerous applications throughout mathematics. In this note, we exhibit…

We find sharp upper bounds on the order of the automorphism group of a hypersurface in complex projective space in every dimension and degree. In each case, we prove that the hypersurface realizing the upper bound is unique up to…

In this paper we derive an upper bound for the degree of the strict invariant algebraic curve of a polynomial system in the complex project plane under generic condition. The results are obtained through the algebraic multiplicities of the…

For any algebraic variety $V$ defined over a number field $k$, and ample height function $H$ on $V$, one can define the counting function $N_V(B) = #{P\in V(k) \mid H(P)\leq B}$. In this paper, we calculate the counting function for Kummer…

We express the number of points on the Dwork hypersurface $$X_{\lambda}^d: x_1^d+x_2^d+\cdots +x_d^d=d\lambda x_1x_2\cdots x_d$$ over a finite field of order $q \not \equiv 1 \pmod{d}$ in terms of McCarthy's $p$-adic hypergeometric function…

We introduce an upper semi-continuous function that stratifies the highest multiplicity locus of a hypersurface in arbitrary characteristic (over a perfect field). The blow-up along the maximum stratum defined by this function leads to a…

This article reports on an approach to point counting on algebraic varieties over finite fields that is based on a detailed investigation of the $2$-adic orthogonal group. Combining the new approach with a $p$-adic method, we count the…

Let $F(x_1,...,x_n)$ be a form of degree $d\geq 2$, which produces a geometrically irreducible hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^{n-1}$. This paper is concerned with the number of rational points on F=0 which have height at most $B$. Whenever…

We address the problem of the maximal finite number of real points of a real algebraic curve (of a given degree and, sometimes, genus) in the projective plane. We improve the known upper and lower bounds and construct close to optimal…

We construct an integral model for counting Campana points of bounded height on diagonal hypersurfaces of degree greater than one, and give an asymptotic formula for their number, generalising work by Browning and Yamagishi. The paper also…

We consider the question of determining the maximum number of $\mathbb{F}_q$-rational points that can lie on a hypersurface of a given degree in a weighted projective space over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, or in other words, the…

We give a new differential proof of our result on the maximal rank of generic unions of points of multiplicity two in projective space in degrees greater than five. This simplifies somewhat our proof of the Waring conjecture.
