We consider all genus 2 curves over Q given by an equation y^2 = f(x) with f a squarefree polynomial of degree 5 or 6, with integral coefficients of absolute value at most 3. For each of these roughly 200000 isomorphism classes of curves,…
In this paper we present several finite families of congruences between cusp forms and Eisenstein series of higher weights at powers of prime ideals. We formulate a conjecture which describes properties of the prime ideals and their…
In this article we prove the explicit Mordell Conjecture for large families of curves. In addition, we introduce a method, of easy application, to compute all rational points on curves of quite general shape and increasing genus. The method…
Self-rational maps of generic algebraic K3 surfaces are conjectured to be trivial. We relate this conjecture to a conjecture concerning the irreducibility of the universal Severi varieties parametrizing nodal curves of given genus and…
A recent result of Eisenbud-Schreyer and Boij-S\"oderberg proves that the Betti diagram of any graded module decomposes as a positive rational linear combination of pure diagrams. When does this numerical decomposition correspond to an…
We discuss the minimal free resolution of an irreducible projective subscheme X. If X is also reduced, we focus on the case when its degree equals two plus the codimension. The set of all possible graded Betti numbers is described if the…
We prove the following statement, predicted by Clemens' conjecture: A generic quintic threefold contains only finitely many smooth rational curves of degree 12.
In this article bipartite planar graphs St_r are investigated, r the number of their plane regions. Bounds for the graded Betti numbers and the projective dimension of the quotient ring associated to such graphs are discussed. We prove that…
We prove that the incidence scheme of rational curves of degree 11 on quintic threefolds is irreducible. This implies a strong form of the Clemens conjecture in degree 11. Namely, on a general quintic threefold $F$ in $\mathbb{P}^4$, there…
In this thesis we investigate certain types of monomial ideals of polynomial rings over fields. We are interested in minimal free resolutions of these ideals (or equivalently the quotients of the polynomial ring by the ideals) considered as…
We study the existence of Artin-Schreier curves with large $ a$-number. We also give bounds on the $a$-number of trigonal curves of genus $5$ in small characteristic.
We prove Conjecture 4.16 of the paper [EL21] of Elagin and Lunts; namely, that a smooth projective curve of genus at least 1 over a field has diagonal dimension 2.
A well-known conjecture of Gross and Zagier states that the values of the higher automorphic Green's function at pairs of points with complex multiplication in the upper half-plane are proportional to the logarithm of an algebraic number.…
We give a general conjecture concerning the existence of Eisenstein congruences between weight $k\geq 3$ newforms of square-free level $NM$ and weight $k$ new Eisenstein series of square-free level $N$. Our conjecture allows the forms to…
For prime degree hypersurfaces of dimension at least 3, Mori asked if every smooth proper limit is still a hypersurface. Interestingly in dimensions 1 and 2, this is not the case. For example, Griffin constructed explicit families of…
We consider families of smooth projective curves of genus 2 with a single point removed and study their integral points. We show that in many such families there is a dense set of fibres for which the integral points can be effectively…
We prove the filling area conjecture in the hyperelliptic case. In particular, we establish the conjecture for all genus 1 fillings of the circle, extending P. Pu's result in genus 0. We translate the problem into a question about closed…
In 2000, Galbraith and McKee heuristically derived a formula that estimates the probability that a randomly chosen elliptic curve over a fixed finite prime field has a prime number of rational points. We show how their heuristics can be…
We classify families of free rational curves on all smooth Fano threefolds over the complex numbers. In particular, we prove the family of very free rational curves representing any fixed numerical curve class is either irreducible or…
The well-known 1-2-3 Conjecture asserts that the edges of every graph without an isolated edge can be weighted with $1$, $2$ and $3$ so that adjacent vertices receive distinct weighted degrees. This is open in general. We prove that every…
