We obtain a quantitative version of the classical Chevalley-Weil theorem for curves. Let $\phi : \tilde{C} \to C$ be an unramified morphism of non-singular plane projective curves defined over a number field $K$. We calculate an effective…
We give an asymptotic formula for the number of rational points of bounded height on algebraic varieties defined by systems of multihomogeneous diagonal equations. The proof uses the Hardy-Littlewood circle method and the hyperbola method…
A conjecture of Manin predicts the distribution of K-rational points on certain algebraic varieties defined over a number field K. In recent years, a method using universal torsors has been successfully applied to several hard special cases…
Let k be an imaginary quadratic number field (with class number 1). We describe a new, essentially linear-time algorithm, to list all isomorphism classes of cubic extensions L/k up to a bound X on the norm of the relative discriminant…
We use the circle method to count $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$-rational points of bounded naive height on a quadric hypersurface $X\subseteq \mathbb{P}^{n-1}$ defined over $\mathbb{F}_q$, provided that $\mathrm{char}(\mathbb{F}_q)>2$ and $n\ge 3$.…
Suppose $E$ is an elliptic curve defined over $\Q$. At the 1983 ICM the first author formulated some conjectures that propose a close relationship between the explicit class field theory construction of certain abelian extensions of…
Let $\lambda \in \mathbb{Q}\setminus \{0, -1\}$ and $l \geq 2$. Denote by $C_{l,\lambda}$ the nonsingular projective algebraic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ with affine equation given by $$y^l=(x-1)(x^2+\lambda).$$ In this paper we give a…
In Part I, the present authors introduced the notion of a quasi-Galois point, for investigating the automorphism groups of plane curves. In this second part, the number of quasi-Galois points for smooth plane curves is described. In…
We obtain an explicit formula for the number of rational cuspidal curves of a given degree on a del-Pezzo surface that pass through an appropriate number of generic points of the surface. This enumerative problem is expressed as an Euler…
We generalize the work of Dem'janenko and Silverman for the Fermat quartics, effectively determining the rational points on the curves $x^{2m}+ax^m+ay^m+y^{2m}=b$ whenever the ranks of some companion hyperelliptic Jacobians are at most one.…
We study the arithmetic (geometric) progressions in the $x$-coordinates of quadratic points on smooth projective planar curves defined over a number field $k$. Unless the curve is hyperelliptic, we prove that these progressions must be…
We consider an elliptic curve over a dyadic field with additive, potentially good reduction. We study the finite Galois extension of the dyadic field generated by the three-torsion points of the elliptic curve. As an application, we give a…
The authors have discussed the method and merit of introducing the curvilinear coordinates into numerical analysis and have shown some numerical examples. However, they used analytical functions for the mappings in the examples and didn't…
In this paper we study quadratic points on the non-split Cartan modular curves $X_{ns}(p)$, for $p = 7, 11,$ and $13$. Recently, Siksek proved that all quadratic points on $X_{ns}(7)$ arise as pullbacks of rational points on $X_{ns}^+(7)$.…
We prove that various arithmetic quotients of the unit ball in $\mathbb{C}^n$ are Mordellic, in the sense that they have only finitely many rational points over any finitely generated field extension of $\mathbb{Q}$. In the previously known…
In this paper we give a complete characterization of the intersections between the Norm-Trace curve over $\mathbb{F}_{q^3}$ and the curves of the form $y=ax^3+bx^2+cx+d$, generalizing a previous result by Bonini and Sala, providing more…
We give a conjectural formula for the characteristic number of rational cuspidal curves in the projective plane by extending the idea of Kontsevich's recursion formula (namely, pulling back the equality of two divisors in the four pointed…
By the Mordell-Weil theorem the group of Q(z)-rational points of an elliptic curve is finitely generated. It is not known whether the rank of this group can get arbitrary large as the curve varies. Mestre and Nagao have constructed examples…
These are the substantially expanded notes of the lectures of JK at the summer school "Higher-Dimensional Geometry over Finite Fields" in G\"ottingen, June 2007. The first part gives an overview of the methods. The main new result is the…
We complete the computation of all $\mathbb{Q}$-rational points on all the $64$ maximal Atkin-Lehner quotients $X_0(N)^*$ such that the quotient is hyperelliptic. To achieve this, we use a combination of various methods, namely the…
