A method of solving the eikonal equation, in either flat or curved space-times, with arbitrary Cauchy data, is extended to the case of data given on a characteristic surface. We find a beautiful relationship between the Cauchy and…

Let K be an algebraically closed field which is complete with respect to a nontrivial, non-Archimedean valuation and let \Lambda be its value group. Given a smooth, proper, connected K-curve X and a skeleton \Gamma of the Berkovich…

We describe the Riemann-Roch strategy which consists of adapting in characteristic zero Weil's proof, of RH in positive characteristic, following the ideas of Mattuck, Tate and Grothendieck. As a new step in this strategy we implement the…

Contraction analysis establishes exponential incremental convergence of a nonlinear system by solving a linear matrix inequality for a contraction metric, and has become a standard resource for solving problems in nonlinear control and…

We give applications of integral canonical models of orthogonal Shimura varieties and the Kuga-Satake morphism to the arithmetic of K3 surfaces over finite fields. We prove every K3 surface of finite height over a finite field admits a…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be proper birational varieties, say with only rational double points over a perfect field $k$ of positive characteristic. If $X$ lifts to $W_n(k)$, is it true that $Y$ has the same lifting property? This is true for smooth…

Let (G,X) be a Shimura datum and K a neat open compact subgroup of $G(\mathbb{A}_f)$. Under mild hypothesis on (G,X), the canonical construction associates a variation of Hodge structure on $\textrm{Sh}_K(G,X)(\mathbb{C})$ to a…

In the famous paper of Deligne and Mumford, they proved that a proper hyperbolic curve over a discrete valuation field has stable reduction if and only if the Jacobian variety of the curve has stable reduction in the case where the residue…

Given $\mathbb P^4_k$, with $k$ algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$, and $X\subset \mathbb P^4_k$ integral surface of degree $d$, let $Y=X\cap H$ be the general hyperplane section of $X$. We suppose that $h^0\mathscr…

In tropical geometry, given a curve in a toric variety, one defines a corresponding graph embedded in Euclidean space. We study the problem of reversing this process for curves of genus zero and one. Our methods focus on describing curves…

Tate's algorithm tells us that for an elliptic curve $E$ over a local field $K$ of residue characteristic $\geq 5$, $E/K$ has potentially good reduction if and only if $\text{ord}(j_E)\geq 0$. It also tells us that when $E/K$ is semistable…

We prove a decomposition formula for the dimensional reduction of an extended topological field theory that arises as an orbifold of an equivariant topological field theory. Our decomposition formula can be expressed in terms of a…

In this paper, we define tropical analogues of real Hurwitz numbers, i.e. numbers of covers of surfaces with compatible involutions satisfying prescribed ramification properties. We prove a correspondence theorem stating the equality of the…

Let $\omega$ be a relative differential on aithmetic surface $X$. We construct a family of rational functions $G_x$ on $X\otimes\Bbb{C}$, which can approximate local antiderivatives of $\omega$ over an open set on $X\otimes\Bbb{C}$. From…

A key tool in the study of algebraic surfaces and their moduli is Brieskorn's simultaneous resolution for families of algebraic surfaces with simple (du Val or ADE) singularities. In this paper we show that a similar statement holds for…

Suppose that $f:X\to C$ is a general Jacobian elliptic surface over the complex numbers. Then the primitive cohomology $H^{1,1}_{prim}(X)$ has, up to a sign, a natural orthonormal basis $(\eta_i)_{i\in [1, N]}$ given by certain meromorphic…

We express the reduction types of Picard curves in terms of tropical invariants associated to binary quintics. We also give a general framework for tropical invariants associated to group actions on arbitrary varieties. The problem of…

In this text, we merge ideas around the tropical hyperfield with the theory of ordered blueprints to give a new formulation of tropical scheme theory. The key insight is that a nonarchimedean absolute value can be considered as a morphism…

A smooth scheme X over a field k of positive characteristic is said to be strongly liftable, if X and all prime divisors on X can be lifted simultaneously over W_2(k). In this paper, first we prove that smooth toric varieties are strongly…
