In this paper, we consider a problem of counting rational points near self-similar sets. Let $n\geq 1$ be an integer. We shall show that for some self-similar measures on $\mathbb{R}^n$, the set of rational points $\mathbb{Q}^n$ is…
We study symbolic powers of bi-homogeneous ideals of points in the Cartesian product of two projective lines and extend to this setting results on the effect of points fattening obtained by Bocci, Chiantini and Dumnicki, Szemberg,…
We investigate Demailly's Conjecture for a general set of sufficiently many points. Demailly's Conjecture generalizes Chudnovsky's Conjecture in providing a lower bound for the Waldschmidt constant of a set of points in projective spaces.…
The symbolic powers $I^{(n)}$ of a radical ideal $I$ in a polynomial ring consist of the functions that vanish up to order $n$ in the variety defined by $I$. These do not necessarily coincide with the ordinary algebraic powers $I^n$, but it…
Recent work of Ein-Lazarsfeld-Smith and Hochster-Huneke raised the problem of which symbolic powers of an ideal are contained in a given ordinary power of the ideal. Bocci-Harbourne developed methods to address this problem, which involve…
The main purpose of the note is to show that Yoshinaga's arrangement of $18$ lines having $48$ triple and $9$ double intersection points leads to a new (short) series of non-containment examples for $I^{(3)} \subset I^{2}$, the question…
We introduce and study rational symbolic powers of ideals in Noetherian rings. We give membership criteria for rational symbolic powers and discuss settings where they agree with integer symbolic powers. We investigate the binomial…
We introduce and explore the Uniform Izumi-Rees Property in Noetherian rings with applications to multiplicity theory and containment relationships among symbolic powers of ideals. As an application, we prove that if $R$ is a normal domain…
Symbolic powers of ideals have attracted interest in commutative algebra and algebraic geometry for many years, with a notable recent focus on containment relations between symbolic powers and ordinary powers. Several invariants have been…
Let $L$ be a simply-connected simple connected algebraic group over a number field $F$, and $H$ be a semisimple absolutely maximal connected $F$-subgroup of $L$. Under a cohomological condition, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number…
Refining an argument of the second author, we improve the known bounds for the number of rational points near a submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^d$ of intermediate dimension under a natural curvature condition. Furthermore, in the codimension $2$…
We study sets of triple points of B\"{o}r\"{o}czky's arrangements of lines in the context of the containment problem proposed by Harbourne and Huneke. We show that in the class of those arrangements, the smallest counterexample to the…
Given a nontrivial homogeneous ideal $I\subseteq k[x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_d]$, a problem of great recent interest has been the comparison of the $r$th ordinary power of $I$ and the $m$th symbolic power $I^{(m)}$. This comparison has been…
Let $n \ge 2$ be an integer and consider the defining ideal of the Fermat configuration of points in $\mathbb{P}^2$: $I_n=(x(y^n-z^n),y(z^n-x^n),z(x^n-y^n)) \subset R=\mathbb{C}[x,y,z]$. In this paper, we compute explicitly the least degree…
We consider the structure of rational points on elliptic curves in Weierstrass form. Let x(P)=A_P/B_P^2 denote the $x$-coordinate of the rational point P then we consider when B_P can be a prime power. Using Faltings' Theorem we show that…
Let $\mathscr{M}$ be a compact submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^{M}$. In this article we establish an asymptotic formula for the number of rational points within a given distance to $\mathscr{M}$ and with bounded denominators under the assumption…
In a recent paper, Schenck and Seceleanu showed that in three variables, any ideal generated by powers of linear forms has the Weak Lefschetz Property (WLP). This result contrasts with examples, in our previous work, of ideals in four…
Given $\eta=\begin{pmatrix} a&b\\c&d \end{pmatrix}\in \text{GL}_2(\mathbb{Q})$, we consider the number of rational points on the genus one curve \[H_\eta:y^2=(a(1-x^2)+b(2x))^2+(c(1-x^2)+d(2x))^2.\] We prove that the set of $\eta$ for which…
Over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$, Harbourne conjectured that $$I^{(N (r-1)+1)} \subseteq I^r$$ for all $r>0$ and all homogeneous ideals $I$ in $S = \mathbb{F} [\mathbb{P}^N] = \mathbb{F} [x_0, \ldots, x_N]$. The conjecture has been…
In this paper, the containment problem for the defining ideal of a special type of zero dimensional subschemes of $\mathbb{P}^2$, so called quasi star configurations, is investigated. Some sharp bounds for the resurgence of these types of…
