We prove Manin's conjecture for two del Pezzo surfaces of degree four which are split over Q and whose singularity types are respectively 3A_1 and A_1+A_2. For this, we study a certain restricted divisor function and use a result about the…
We show that the number of non-trivial rational points of height at most $B$, that lie on the cubic surface $x_1x_2x_3=x_4(x_1+x_2+x_3)^2$, has order of magnitude $B(\log B)^6$. This agrees with the Manin conjecture.
Let $k$ be a positive integer and let $X_k$ be the cubic hypersurface defined by the equation $x^3-(y_1^2+\cdots+y_{4k}^2)z=0$. In this paper, we give an asymptotic formula for the counting function of semi-integral points on $X_k$. We also…
Let $X^n$ be a nonsingular hypersurface of degree $d\geq 2$ in the projective space $\mathbb{P}^{n+1}$ defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of $q$ elements. We prove a Homma-Kim conjecture on a upper bound about the number of…
Let $X$ be a smooth cubic hypersurface of dimension $n \ge 1$ over the rationals. It is well-known that new rational points may be obtained from old ones by secant and tangent constructions. In view of the Mordell--Weil theorem for $n=1$,…
We prove that any smooth cubic surface defined over any number field satisfies the lower bound predicted by Manin's conjecture possibly after an extension of small degree.
Using recent work of the first author~\cite{Bet}, we prove a strong version of the Manin-Peyre's conjectures with a full asymptotic and a power-saving error term for the two varieties respectively in $\mathbb{P}^2 \times \mathbb{P}^2$ with…
We prove Manin's conjecture on the asymptotic behavior of the number of rational points of bounded anticanonical height for a spherical threefold with canonical singularities and two infinite families of spherical threefolds with log…
The Manin-Peyre conjecture is established for smooth spherical Fano threefolds of semisimple rank one and type N. Together with the previously solved case T and the toric cases, this covers all types of smooth spherical Fano threefolds. The…
A conjecture of Manin predicts the distribution of rational points on Fano varieties. We provide a framework for proofs of Manin's conjecture for del Pezzo surfaces over imaginary quadratic fields, using universal torsors. Some of our tools…
We prove the thin set version of Manin's conjecture for the chordal (or: determinantal) cubic fourfold, which is the secant variety of the Veronese surface. We reduce this counting problem to a result of Schmidt for quadratic points in the…
Manin's Conjecture predicts the rate of growth of rational points of a bounded height after removing those lying on an exceptional set. We study whether the exceptional set in Manin's Conjecture is a thin set.
For given non-zero integers a,b,q we investigate the density of integer solutions (x,y) to the binary cubic congruence ax^2+by^3=0 (mod q). We use this to establish the Manin conjecture for a singular del Pezzo surface of degree 2 defined…
We prove the Tate conjecture for integral degree 4 classes on a smooth cubic hypersurface X of dimension 4 over an algebraic closure of a field finitely generated over its prime subfield.
Let X be a surface whose Cox ring has a single relation satisfying moreover a kind of linearity property. Under a simple assumption, we show that the geometric Manin's conjectures hold for some degrees lying in the dual of the effective…
We prove a version of Manin's conjecture for a certain family of intrinsic quadrics, the base field being a global field of positive characteristic. We also explain how a very slight variation of the method we use allows to establish the…
In this note, we establish an asymptotic formula for the number of rational points of bounded height on the singular cubic surface $$ x_0(x_1^2 + x_2^2)=x_3^3 $$ with a power-saving error term, which verifies the Manin-Peyre conjectures for…
A strong quantitative form of Manin's conjecture is established for a certain variety in biprojective space. The singular integral in an application of the circle method involves the third power of the integral sine function, and is…
