Various methods have been used to construct rational points and rational curves on rationally connected algebraic varieties. We survey recent advances in two of them, the descent and the fibration method, in a number-theoretical context…

Massive theories of abelian p-forms are quantized in a generalized path-representation that leads to a description of the phase space in terms of a pair of dual non-local operators analogous to the Wilson Loop and the 't Hooft disorder…

The Bounded Height Conjecture of Bombieri, Masser, and Zannier states that for any sufficiently generic algebraic subvariety of a semiabelian $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$-variety $G$ there is an upper bound on the Weil height of the points…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety of dimension $n\geq 2$ and $G\cong\mathbf{Z}^{n-1}$ a free abelian group of automorphisms of $X$ over $\overline{\mathbf{Q}}$. Suppose that $G$ is of positive entropy. We construct a canonical height…

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 study paving matroids, their realization spaces, and their closures, along with matroid varieties and circuit varieties. Within this context, we introduce three distinct methods for generating polynomials within the associated ideals of…

The rational points of a smooth curve $X$ over a number field $k$ map to the set of augmentations of the associated motivic algebra. An expectation, related to Kim's conjecture, is that for $X$ hyperbolic, the set of augmentations which…

We give an explicit construction of the p-adic de Rham comparison isomorphism for 1-motives. In particular, we prove that our construction recovers the classical de Rham comparison isomorphism and is functorial with respect to morphisms of…

In this paper, we will give a uniform upper bound of the number of rational points of bounded height in non-singular curves by applying the global determinant method.

Bombieri and Zannier established lower and upper bounds for the limit infimum of the Weil height in fields of totally p-adic numbers and generalizations thereof. In this paper, we use potential theoretic techniques to generalize the upper…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety over the function field $K$ of a compact Riemann surface $B$. Fix a model $f \colon \mathcal{A} \to B$ of $A/K$ and an effective horizontal divisor $\mathcal{D} \subset \mathcal{A}$. We study $(S,…

We study the behavior of canonical height functions $\widehat{h}_f$, associated to rational maps $f$, on totally $p$-adic fields. In particular, we prove that there is a gap between zero and the next smallest value of $\widehat{h}_f$ on the…

We discuss canonical local heights on abelian varieties over non-archimedean fields from the point of view of Berkovich analytic spaces. Our main result is a refinement of N\'eron's classical result relating canonical local heights with…

We introduce the p-adic analogue of Arakelov intersection theory on arithmetic surfaces. The intersection pairing in an extension of the p-adic height pairing for divisors of degree 0 in the form described by Coleman and Gross. It also uses…

Assuming the K\"unneth type standard conjecture, we propose a way to describe objects of mixed motives explicitly. We study their formal properties, and we associate mixed motives to schemes smooth and separated over a field. This serves as…

Consider a cohomologically hyperbolic birational self-map defined over the algebraic numbers, for example, a birational self-map in dimension two with the first dynamical degree greater than one, or in dimension three with the first and the…

Following our work in \cite{papas2022height}, we extend the height bounds established by Y. Andr\'e in his seminal research monograph \cite{andre1989g} for $1$-parameter families of abelian varieties defined over number fields. In our…

We give the first explicit examples beyond the Chabauty-Coleman method where Kim's nonabelian Chabauty program determines the set of rational points of a curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ or a quadratic number field. We accomplish this by…

We prove a formula, which, given a principally polarized abelian variety $(A,\lambda)$ over the field of algebraic numbers, relates the stable Faltings height of $A$ with the N\'eron--Tate height of a symmetric theta divisor on $A$. Our…

We consider hypersurfaces in $(\mathbb{P}^1)^n$ that contain a generic sequence of small dynamical height with respect to a split map and project onto $n-1$ coordinates. We show that these hypersurfaces satisfy strong coincidence relations…
