We solve the convergence case of the generalized Baker-Schmidt problem for simultaneous approximation on affine subspaces, under natural diophantine type conditions. In one of our theorems, we do not require monotonicity on the…

In this paper we prove that badly approximable points on any analytic non-degenerate curve in $\mathbb{R}^n$ is an absolute winning set. This confirms a key conjecture in the area stated by Badziahin and Velani (2014) which represents a…

Fano varieties are subvarieties of the Grassmannian whose points parametrize linear subspaces contained in a given projective variety. These expository notes give an account of results on Fano varieties of complete intersections, with a…

Denote by $E_r$ the $r^{th}$ elementary symmetric polynomial in $\dim V$ variables for a vector space $V$ over an infinite field $\Bbbk$. We describe the rational points on the Fano scheme $F_{d-1}(Z(E_{\dim V-1}))$ of projective…

We establish the convergence theory of multiplicative Diophantine approximation for all non-degenerate, smooth manifolds. We also settle said convergence theory for all affine subspaces satisfying a highly generic and essentially optimal…

We characterise smooth curves in P^3 whose blow-up produces a threefold with anticanonical divisor big and nef. These are curves C of degree d and genus g lying on a smooth quartic, such that (i) $4d-30 \le g\le 14$ or $(g,d) = (19,12)$,…

In this paper we investigate Fano manifolds $X$ whose Chern characters $ch_k(X)$ satisfy some positivity conditions. Our approach is via the study of polarized minimal families of rational curves $(H_x,L_x)$ through a general point $x\in…

We prove $f$-positivity of $\mathcal{O}_X(1)$ for arbitrary dimension fibrations over curves $f\colon X\to B$ whose general fibre is a complete intersection. In the special case where the family is a global complete intersection, we prove…

The goal of this short note is to point out that every Fano manifold with a nef tangent bundle possesses an almost K{\"a}hler-Einstein metric, in a weak sense. The technique relies on a regularization theorem for closed positive (1,…

Katona's intersection theorem states that every intersecting family $\mathcal F\subseteq[n]^{(k)}$ satisfies $\vert\partial\mathcal F\vert\geq\vert\mathcal F\vert$, where $\partial\mathcal F=\{F\setminus x:x\in F\in\mathcal F\}$ is the…

In this paper, an update on the classification of smooth weak Fano threefolds with Picard number two and small anti-canonical maps is given. Geometric constructions are provided for previously open numerical cases by blowing up certain…

We study strong approximation for the intersection of two affine quadrics. As its application, we prove the fibration method for weak approximation over number fields of rank four with nonsplit fibers split by quadratic extensions.

Consider a smooth log Fano variety over the function field of a curve. Suppose that the boundary has positive normal bundle. Choose an integral model over the curve. Then integral points are Zariski dense, after removing an explicit finite…

For the class of de Branges-Rovnyak spaces $\mathcal{H}(b)$ of the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ defined by extreme points $b$ of the unit ball of $H^\infty$, we study the problem of approximation of a general function in $\mathcal{H}(b)$ by a…

Let $X$ be a K3 surface with Picard number 1 and genus $g$, such that $g\not\equiv 3 \mod 4$. In this paper, we show that $X$ is a Fano visitor, i.e., there is a smooth Fano variety $Y$ and an embedding $D^b(X)\hookrightarrow D^b(Y)$ given…

We propose a new algorithm that finds an $\varepsilon$-approximate fixed point of a smooth function from the $n$-dimensional $\ell_2$ unit ball to itself. We use the general framework of finding approximate solutions to a variational…

In the first part of this article, we give bounds on self-intersections $C^2$ of integral curves $C$ on blow-ups $Bl_nX$ of surfaces $X$ with the anti-cannonical divisor $-K_X$ effective. In the last part, we prove the weak bounded…

We prove birational superrigidity of every hypersurface of degree N in P^N with singular locus of dimension s, under the assumption that N is at least 2s+8 and it has only quadratic singularities of rank at least N-s. Combined with the…

We approximate intersection numbers $\big\langle \psi_1^{d_1}\cdots \psi_n^{d_n}\big\rangle_{g,n}$ on Deligne-Mumford's moduli space $\overline{\mathcal M}_{g,n}$ of genus $g$ stable complex curves with $n$ marked points by certain…
