Let (X,d) be a metric space and (\Omega, d) a compact subspace of X which supports a non-atomic finite measure m. We consider `natural' classes of badly approximable subsets of \Omega. Loosely speaking, these consist of points in \Omega…
We establish a congruence formula between $p$-adic logarithms of Heegner points for two elliptic curves with the same mod $p$ Galois representation. As a first application, we use the congruence formula when $p=2$ to explicitly construct…
Given an elliptic surface over a number field, we study the collection of fibres whose Mordell-Weil rank is greater than the generic rank. Under suitable assumptions, we show that this collection is not thin. Our results apply to quadratic…
We analyze the convergence of degenerate approximations to Green's function of elliptic boundary value problems with high-contrast coefficients. It is shown that the convergence is independent of the contrast if the error is measured with…
We estimate the lattice sums arising in the context of the integer point counting in polyhedra.
There are 26 possibilities for the torsion group of elliptic curves defined over quadratic number fields. We present examples of high rank elliptic curves with given torsion group which give the current records for most of the torsion…
Inspired by the work of Lang-Trotter on the densities of primes with fixed Frobenius traces for elliptic curves defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ and by the subsequent generalization of Cojocaru-Davis-Silverberg-Stange to generic abelian varieties,…
We give some heuristics for counting elliptic curves with certain properties. In particular, we re-derive the Brumer-McGuinness heuristic for the number of curves with positive/negative discriminant up to $X$, which is an application of…
We study the problem of Diophantine approximation on lines in $\mathbb{R}^d$ under certain primality restrictions.
A famous problem posed by Diophantus was to find sets of distinct positive rational numbers such that the product of any two is one less than a rational square. Such Diophantine sets have been used to construct high rank elliptic curves.…
In this paper, we demonstrate the intimate relationships among some geometric figures and the families of elliptic curves with positive ranks. These geometric figures include \textit{\textbf{Heron triangles}}, \textit{\textbf{Brahmagupta…
For a positive proportion of primes $p$ and $q$, we prove that $\mathbb{Z}$ is Diophantine in the ring of integers of $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[3]{p},\sqrt{-q})$. This provides a new and explicit infinite family of number fields $K$ such that…
We give an asymptotic formula for the number of elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ with bounded Faltings height. Silverman has shown that the Faltings height for elliptic curves over number fields can be expressed in terms of modular…
In this short note, we give a method for computing a non-torsion point of smallest canonical height on a given elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}$ over all number fields of a fixed degree. We then describe data collected using this method, and…
The Cohen-Lenstra heuristic predicts the distribution of ideal class groups over number fields. Random matrix models provide a natural framework for explaining this heuristic, and recent results demonstrate the effectiveness of these tools.…
We present a new semidefinite Farkas lemma involving a side constraint on the rank. This lemma is then used to present a new proof of a recent characterization, by Connelly and Gortler, of dimensional rigidity of bar frameworks.
We formulate and analyze several finiteness conjectures for linear algebraic groups over higher-dimensional fields. In fact, we prove all of these conjectures for algebraic tori as well as in some other situations. This work relies in an…
We initiate the study of quadratic discrepancy for finite point sets on the Heisenberg group $\mathbb H^n$ with respect to upper Ahlfors regular probability measures. For a natural family of test sets given by left translations and…
We develop the theory of Diophantine approximation for systems of simultaneously small linear forms, which coefficients are drawn from any given analytic non-degenerate manifolds. This setup originates from a problem of Sprind\v{z}uk from…
We examine the ranks of a subfamily of curves in a previous article, which are derived from the existence of solutions to certain Pell equations. We exhibit an abundance of curves of moderately large rank, and prove under mild conditions…
