We study the S-integral points on the complement of a union of hyperplanes in projective space, where S is a finite set of places of a number field k. In the classical case where S consists of the set of archimedean places of k, we…
Let $X$ be a very general hypersurface of degree $d$ in the projective $(n+1)$-space with $n \ge 3$, and $f: X \to Y$ a non-birational surjective morphism to a normal projective variety $Y$. We first prove that $Y$ is a klt Fano variety if…
An asymptotic formula is established for the number of rational points of bounded anticanonical height which lie on a certain Zariski dense subset of the biprojective hypersurface $x_1y_1^2+\dots+x_4y_4^2=0$ in…
Let ${\mathcal O}$ be the ring of $S$-integers in a number field $K$. For $A\in\rm{SL}_{2}(\mathcal{O})$ and $k\geq 1$, we define matrix-factorization varieties $V_k(A)$ over ${\mathcal O}$ which parametrize factoring $A$ into a product of…
Recently, Lehmann, Sengupta, and Tanimoto proposed a conjectural construction of the exceptional set in Manin's Conjecture, which we call the geometric exceptional set. We construct a del Pezzo surface of degree $1$ whose geometric…
Let $Y$ be a smooth hypersurface in a projective irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifold $X$ of dimension $2n$. The characteristic foliation $F$ is the kernel of the symplectic form restricted to $Y$. Assume that $X$ is equipped with a…
We prove a conjecture of Medvedev and Scanlon in the case of regular morphisms of semiabelian varieties. That is, if $G$ is a semiabelian variety defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $0$, and $\varphi\colon G\to…
It is proved that a smooth rational surface in projective four-space, which is ruled by cubics or quartics has degree at most 12. It is also proved that a smooth rational surface in projective four-space which is the image of Fn by a linear…
Let f : X --> X be a dominant rational map of a projective variety defined over a global field, let d_f be the dynamical degree of f, and let h_X be a Weil height on X relative to an ample divisor. We prove that h_X(f^n(P)) << (d_f + e)^n…
In this paper we prove the following theorem. Let $f:\mathbb{A}^2\rightarrow \mathbb{A}^2$ be a dominate polynomial endomorphisms defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $0$. If there are no nonconstant rational…
Conjecturally, the Galois representations that are attached to essentially selfdual regular algebraic cuspidal automorphic representations are Zariski-dense in a polarized Galois deformation ring. We prove new results in this direction in…
We prove several rigidity results on multiplier spectrum and length spectrum. For example, we show that for every non-exceptional rational map $f:\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{C})\to\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{C})$ of degree $d\geq2$, the…
We construct higher-dimensional Calabi-Yau varieties defined over a given number field with Zariski dense sets of rational points. We give two elementary constructions in arbitrary dimensions as well as another construction in dimension…
We give a counterexample to the following conjecture: the set of isolated periodic points of an automorphism of degree at least two on an affine space is a set of bounded height. As a positive result, we prove that any cohomologically…
Let $X$ be a $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial klt projective variety admitting an int-amplified endomorphism $f$, i.e., the modulus of any eigenvalue of $f^*|_{\text{NS}(X)}$ is greater than $1$. We prove Kawaguchi-Silverman conjecture for $f$ and…
We give an upper bound for the number of rational points of height at most $B$, lying on a surface defined by a quadratic form $Q$. The bound shows an explicit dependence on $Q$. It is optimal with respect to $B$, and is also optimal for…
Let $f(x)=x^5+ax^3+bx^2+cx \in \Z[x]$ and consider the hypersurface of degree five given by the equation \cal{V}_{f}: f(p)+f(q)=f(r)+f(s). Under the assumption $b\neq 0$ we show that there exists $\Q$-unirational elliptic surface contained…
For a dominant rational self-map on a smooth projective variety defined over a number field, Shu Kawaguchi and Joseph H. Silverman conjectured that the dynamical degree is equal to the arithmetic degree at a rational point whose forward…

Let $f:X\to X$ be a non-isomorphic (i.e., $\text{deg } f>1$) surjective endomorphism of a smooth projective threefold $X$. We prove that any birational minimal model program becomes $f$-equivariant after iteration, provided that $f$ is…
