In this paper, we formulate the Drinfeld module analogue of a question raised by Lang and studied by Katz on the existence of rational points on abelian varieties over number fields. Given a maximal ideal $\fl$ of $\F_q[T]$, the question…

We study the existence of rational points on modular curves of $\cal{D}$-elliptic sheaves over local fields and the structure of special fibres of these curves. We discuss some applications which include finding presentations for arithmetic…

In response to a question of B. Poonen, we exhibit for each global field k an algebraic curve over k which violates the Hasse Principle. In fact we can find such examples among Atkin-Lehner twists of certain elliptic modular curves and --…

We define the canonical submodule of a Drinfeld module of rank greater than one over the affine line over a finite field. (This extends the definition of the level 1 canonical subgroup of Hattori for rank 2 with ordinary reduction.) We give…

For an extension $K/\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ of the rational function field over a finite field, we introduce the notion of virtually $K$-rational Drinfeld modules as a function field analogue of $\mathbb{Q}$-curves. Our goal in this article is to…

We study rational points and torsion points on Drinfeld modular curves defined over rational function fields. As a consequence we derive a conjecture of Schweizer describing completely the torsion of Drinfeld modules of rank two over $\Bbb…

We show that the module of integral points on a Drinfeld module satisfies a an analogue of Dirichlet's unit theorem, despite its failure to be finitely generated. As a consequence, we obtain a construction of a canonical finitely generated…

Let $D > 546$ be the discriminant of an indefinite rational quaternion algebra. We show that there are infinitely many imaginary quadratic fields $l/\mathbb Q$ such that the twist of the Shimura curve $X^D$ by the main Atkin-Lehner…

We study a variant of the Hasse principle for finite Galois modules, allowing exceptional sets of positive density. For a Galois module whose underlying abelian group is isomorphic to $\mathbb{F}_p^{\oplus r}$ ($r \leq 2$), we show that the…

We prove that in the backward orbit of a non-preperiodic point under the action of a Drinfeld module of generic characteristic there exist at most finitely many points S-integral with respect to another nonpreperiodic point. This provides…

We investigate the Hasse principles for isotropy and isometry of quadratic forms over finitely generated field extensions with respect to various sets of discrete valuations. Over purely transcendental field extensions of fields that…

Let $L$ be a finite extension of the rational function field over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ and $E$ be a Drinfeld module defined over $L$. Given finitely many elements in $E(L)$, this paper aims to prove that linear relations among…

Let $q\geq2$ be a prime power and consider Drinfeld modules of rank 2 over $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$. We prove that there are no points with coordinates being Drinfeld singular moduli, on a family of hyperbolas $XY=\gamma$, where $\gamma$ is a…

We address some questions posed by Goss related to the modularity of Drinfeld modules of rank 1 defined over the field of rational functions in one variable with coefficients in a finite field. For each positive characteristic valued…

We give the first examples of derived equivalences between varieties defined over non-closed fields where one has a rational point and the other does not. We begin with torsors over Jacobians of curves over Q and F_q(t), and conclude with a…

We prove an analog of Siegel's theorem for integral points in the context of Drinfeld modules. The result holds for finitely generated submodules of the additive group over a function field of transcendence dimension 1.

In the arithmetic of function fields, Drinfeld modules play the role that elliptic curves play in the arithmetic of number fields. The aim of this paper is to study a non-existence problem of Drinfeld modules with constrains on torsion…

Let $\Phi $ be a Drinfeld $\mathbf{F}_{q}[T]$-module of rank 2, over a finite field $L$, a finite extension of $n$ degrees of a finite field with $q$ elements $\mathbf{F}_{q}$. Let $m$ be the extension degrees of $ L$ over the field…

We introduce differential characters of Drinfeld modules. These are function-field analogues of Buium's p-adic differential characters of elliptic curves and of Manin's differential characters of elliptic curves in differential algebra,…

Ihara's proof that the reduction of the modular curve $X_0(n)$ at a prime $p$ not dividing $n$ has many points over a quadratic extension is adapted to the drinfeld modular curves $X_0(n)$. In order to do so, some properties of drinfeld…
