We prove finiteness and give an explicit upper bound on the number of $S$-integral points on affine curves satisfying a certain rank-genus inequality. We achieve this by developing an analogue of the Chabauty method, embedding the curve…

Answering a question of Zureick-Brown, we determine the cubic points on the modular curves $X_0(N)$ for $N \in \{53,57,61,65,67,73\}$ as well as the quartic points on $X_0(65)$. To do so, we develop a "partially relative" symmetric Chabauty…

The Chabauty--Kim method is a method for finding rational points on curves under certain technical conditions, generalising Chabauty's proof of the Mordell conjecture for curves with Mordell--Weil rank less than their genus. We show how the…

Let $X$ be a curve of genus $g>1$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ whose Jacobian $J$ has Mordell--Weil rank $r$ and N\'eron--Severi rank $\rho$. When $r < g+ \rho - 1$, the geometric quadratic Chabauty method determines a finite set of $p$-adic points…

We outline a general algorithm for computing an explicit model over a number field of any curve of genus 2 whose (unpolarized) Jacobian is isomorphic to the product of two elliptic curves with CM by the same order in an imaginary quadratic…

We give new bounds for the number of integral points on elliptic curves. The method may be said to interpolate between approaches via diophantine techniques ([BP], [HBR]) and methods based on quasiorthogonality in the Mordell-Weil lattice…

Building on work by Chabauty from 1941, Coleman proved in 1985 an explicit bound for the number of rational points of a curve $C$ of genus $g\ge 2$ defined over a number field $F$, with Jacobian of rank at most $g-1$. Namely, in the case…

Caro and Pasten gave an explicit upper bound on the number of rational points on a hyperbolic surface that is embedded in an abelian variety of rank at most one. We show how to use their method to produce a refined bound on the number of…

Consider the smooth projective models C of curves y^2=f(x) with f(x) in Z[x] monic and separable of degree 2g+1. We prove that for g >= 3, a positive fraction of these have only one rational point, the point at infinity. We prove a lower…

We give new instances where Chabauty--Kim sets can be proved to be finite, by developing a notion of "generalised height functions" on Selmer varieties. We also explain how to compute these generalised heights in terms of iterated integrals…

We give a new construction of $p$-adic heights on varieties over number fields using $p$-adic Arakelov theory. In analogy with Zhang's construction of real-valued heights in terms of adelic metrics, these heights are given in terms of…

Given a genus $2$ curve $C$ with a rational Weierstrass point defined over a number field, we construct a family of genus $5$ curves that realize descent by maximal unramified abelian two-covers of $C$, and describe explicit models of the…

In this note is we exhibit an elementary method to construct explicitly curves over finite fields with many points. Despite its elementary character the method is very efficient and can be regarded as a partial substitute for the use of…
