The class number divisibility problem for number fields is one of the classical problems in algebraic number theory, which originated from Gauss' class number conjectures. The relation between the points on an elliptic curve and class…

We study and explicitly construct some families of asymptotically exact sequences of algebraic function fields. It turns out that these families have an asymptotical class number widely greater than the general Lachaud - Martin-Deschamps…

Let $X$ be a projective variety over a number field $K$ endowed with a height function associated to an ample line bundle on $X$. Given an algebraic extension $F$ of $K$ with a sufficiently big Northcott number, we can show that there are…

The number of points on a hyperelliptic curve over a field of $q$ elements may be expressed as $q+1+S$ where $S$ is a certain character sum. We study fluctuations of $S$ as the curve varies over a large family of hyperelliptic curves of…

We show that finite fields over which there is a curve of a given genus g with its Jacobian having a small exponent, are very rare. This extends a recent result of W. Duke in the case g=1. We also show when g=1 or g=2 that our bounds are…

We give examples of sequences of smooth non-isotrivial curves for every genus at least two, defined over a rational function field of positive characteristic, such that the (finite) number of rational points of the curves in the sequence…

Let $C$ be a hyperelliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$, whose Weierstrass points are defined over extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$ of degree at most three, and at least one of them is rational. Generalizing a result of R. Soleng (in the case…

In this paper we give several methods to construct curves over finite fields with many points and illustrate this with examples of the results.

Given a prime power q, for every pair of positive integers m and n with m dividing the GCD of n and q-1, we construct a modular curve over F_q that parametrizes elliptic curves over F_q along with F_q-defined points P and Q of order m and…

For a polarized complex Abelian variety A, of dimension g>1, we study the function N_A(t) counting the number of elliptic curves in A with degree bounded by t. We describe elliptic curves as solutions of Diophantine equations which, at…

We provide a theoretical study of Algebraic Geometry codes constructed from abelian surfaces defined over finite fields. We give a general bound on their minimum distance and we investigate how this estimation can be sharpened under the…

We study residually transcendental extensions of a valuation $v$ on a field $E$ to function fields of hyperelliptic curves over $E$. We show that $v$ has at most finitely many extensions to the function field of a hyperelliptic curve over…

In this article we prove some interesting results on field generated by division points of several formal groups of same height, already implicit in the treatment in appendix-A of my M.Sc thesis (Points of Small Height in Certain Nonabelian…

Following the work of Mestre, we use Weil's explicit formulas to compute explicit lower bounds on the conductors of elliptic curves and abelian varieties over number fields. Moreover, we obtain bounds for the conductor of elliptic curves…

Motivated by Xing's method [7], we show that there exist [n,k,d] linear Hermitian codes over F_{q^2} with k+d>=n-3 for all sufficiently large q. This improves the asymptotic bound of Algebraic-Geometry codes from Hermitian curves given in…

We show that transcendental curves in $\mathbb R^n$ (not necessarily compact) have few rational points of bounded height provided that the curves are well behaved with respect to algebraic sets in a certain sense and can be parametrized by…

Let $E$ be an elliptic surface over the curve $C$, defined over a number field $k$, let $P$ be a section of $E$, and let $\ell$ be a rational prime. For any non-singular fibre $E_t$, we bound the number of points $Q$ on $E_t$ of (algebraic)…

Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a projective irreducible nonsingular algebraic curve defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. This paper presents a variation of the St\"orh-Voloch theory and sets new bounds to the number of…

We prove uniform upper bounds on the number of integral points of bounded height on affine varieties. If $X$ is an irreducible affine variety of degree $d\geq 4$ in $\mathbb{A}^n$ which is not the preimage of a curve under a linear map…
