Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field and $p$ be an odd prime number. Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve with good ordinary reduction at $p$. We study the Iwasawa theory of $E$ over the anticyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of $K$…

Batyrev and Tschinkel's example is a Fermat cubic surface bundle $X$ which is a Fano $5$-fold. It is the first example for which Manin's conjecture can never hold for a proper closed exceptional set. Recently, Lehmann, Sengupta, and…

We prove a $p$-adic analogue of the Andr\'{e}-Oort conjecture for subvarieties of the universal abelian varieties containing a dense set of special points. Let $g$ and $n$ be integers with $n \geq 3$ and $p$ a prime number not dividing $n$.…

We study the Jacobian conjecture for Keller maps $f:X_0:=\mathbf{A}^n\rightarrow Y_0:=\mathbf{A}^n$ in characteristic $0$ and attempt to prove it. We are quite aware of the fact that many people have tried to prove the Jacobian conjecture…

The Oort conjecture (now a theorem of Obus-Wewers and Pop) states that if k is an algebraically closed field of characteristic p, then any cyclic branched cover of smooth projective k-curves lifts to characteristic zero. This is equivalent…

We prove that a polynomial map is invertible if and only if some associated differential ring homomorphism is bijective. To this end, we use a theorem of Crespo and Hajto linking the invertibility of polynomial maps with Picard-Vessiot…

Let $F$ be a totally real number field, $p$ a rational prime, and $\chi$ a finite order totally odd abelian character of Gal$(\bar{F}/F)$ such that $\chi(\mathfrak{p})=1$ for some $\mathfrak{p}|p$. Motivated by a conjecture of Stark, Gross…

Motivated by the pseudogap state of the cuprates, we introduce the concept of an "exceptional" van Hove singularity that appears when strong electron-electron interaction splits an otherwise simply connected Fermi surface into multiply…

We employ the formalism of vanishing cycles and perverse sheaves to introduce and study the vanishing cohomology of complex projective hypersurfaces. As a consequence, we give upper bounds for the Betti numbers of projective hypersurfaces,…

Let $A$ be a modular abelian surface over $Q$ which either has trivial geometric endomorphism ring, or arises as the restriction of scalars of an elliptic curve over an imaginary quadratic field which is modular and is not a $Q$-curve. In…

We prove Clifford theoretic results on the representations of finite groups which only hold in characteristic $2$. Let $G$ be a finite group, let $N$ be a normal subgroup of $G$ and let $\varphi$ be an irreducible $2$-Brauer character of…

The goal of this paper is to explain how basic properties of perverse sheaves sometimes translate via Riemann-Hilbert correspondences (in both characteristic $0$ and characteristic $p$) to highly non-trivial properties of singularities,…

Let $k$ be algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, let $G$ be a commutative algebraic group over $k$ such that the linear part of $G$ is isomorphic to $\mathbb{G}_a$, and let $X$ be a closed subvariety of $G$. We show that the…

Jacobian conjectures (that nonsingular implies invertible) for rational everywhere defined maps of real n-space to itself are considered, with no requirement for a constant Jacobian determinant or a rational inverse. The associated…

Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve, let $p>2$ be a prime of good reduction for $E$, and assume that $E$ admits a rational $p$-isogeny with kernel $\mathbb{F}_p(\phi)$. In this paper we prove the cyclotomic Iwasawa main conjecture for…

In this paper, we prove the Iwasawa main conjecture for elliptic curves at an odd supersingular prime p. Some consequences are the p-parts of the leading term formulas in the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjectures for analytic rank 0 or 1.

We study ample divisors X with only rational singularities on abelian varieties that decompose into a sum of two lower dimensional subvarieties, X=V+W. For instance, we prove an optimal lower bound on the degree of the corresponding…

Towards the Lang--Vojta conjecture, we prove results on finiteness and Zariski degeneracy of $S$-integral points of varieties over number fields $k$, including many cases with geometrically irreducible boundary divisors. Our approach builds…

We prove the semisimplicity conjecture for A-motives over finitely generated fields K. This conjecture states that the rational Tate modules V_p(M) of a semisimple A-motive M are semisimple as representations of the absolute Galois group of…

The Torelli theorem establishes that the Jacobian of a smooth projective curve, together with the polarization provided by the theta divisor, fully characterizes the curve. In the case of nodal curves, there exists a concept known as fine…
