We consider an orthonormal basis of eigenfunctions of the Dirichlet Laplacian for a rational polygon. The modulus squared of the eigenfunctions defines a sequence of probability measures. We prove that this sequence contains a density-one…

Two sets of conditions are presented for the compactness of a real plane algebraic curve, one sufficient and one necessary, in terms of the Newton polygon of the defining polynomial.

We study the rational approximation properties of special manifolds defined by a set of polynomials with rational coefficients. Mostly we will assume the case of all polynomials to depend on only one variable. In this case the manifold can…

We consider polynomials that are orthogonal over an analytic Jordan curve L with respect to a positive analytic weight, and show that each such polynomial of sufficiently large degree can be expanded in a series of certain integral…

The Deligne-Lusztig varieties associated to the Coxeter classes of the algebraic groups 2A2, 2B2 and 2G2 are affine algebraic curves. We produce explicit projective models of the closures of these curves. Furthermore for $d$ the Coxeter…

Let $\mathbb F_{q^2}$ be the finite field with $q^2$ elements. We provide a simple and effective method, using reciprocal polynomials, for the construction of algebraic curves over $\mathbb F_{q^2}$ with many rational points. The curves…

Given a finite Borel measure $\mu$ on R n and basic semi-algebraic sets $\Omega$\_i $\subset$ R n , i = 1,. .. , p, we provide a systematic numerical scheme to approximate as closely as desired $\mu$(\cup\_i $\Omega$\_i), when all moments…

Based on computational evidence, we formulate a number of conjectures on the distribution of rational points on curves of genus 2 over the rational numbers, in terms of the size of the coefficients of an equation of the form y^2 = f(x) >.

In this paper, we establish asymptotic formulae with optimal errors for the number of rational points that are close to a planar curve, which unify and extend the results of Beresnevich-Dickinson-Velani and Vaughan-Velani. Furthermore, we…

Two curves are affinely equivalent if there exists an affine mapping transforming one of them onto the other. Thus, detecting affine equivalence comprises, as important particular cases, similarity, congruence and symmetry detection. In…

We quantify the density of rational points in the unit sphere $S^n$, proving analogues of the classical theorems on the embedding of $\q^n$ into $\r^n$. Specifically, we prove a Dirichlet theorem stating that every point $\alpha \in S^n$ is…

The goal of this paper is to measure the non-convexity of compact and smooth connected components of real algebraic plane curves. We study these curves first in a general setting and then in an asymptotic one. In particular, we consider…

This paper analyzes the approximation properties of spaces of piece-wise tensor product polynomials over box meshes with a focus on application to IsoGeometric Analysis (IGA). The errors are measured in Lebesgue norms. Estimates of…

It is well known that an irreducible algebraic curve is rational (i.e. parametric) if and only if its genus is zero. In this paper, given a tolerance $\epsilon>0$ and an $\epsilon$-irreducible algebraic affine plane curve $\mathcal C$ of…

This short note gives a sufficient condition for having the class of polynomials dense in the space of square integrable functions with respect to a finite measure dominated by the Lebesgue measure in the real line, here denoted by $L^2$.…

In this article, we establish an analogue of the dimension growth conjecture, which is regarding the density of rational points on projective varieties, for compact submanifolds of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with non-vanishing curvature. We also…

We prove sharp $L^2$ Fourier restriction inequalities for compact, smooth surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ equipped with the affine surface measure or a power thereof. The results are valid for all smooth surfaces and the bounds are uniform for…

We solve a randomized version of the following open question: is there a strictly convex, bounded curve \gamma in the plane such that the number of rational points on \gamma, with denominator $n$, approaches infinity with $n$? Although this…

Given a minimal surface equipped with a generically finite map to an Abelian variety, we give an optimal bound on the canonical degree of a rational or an elliptic curve. As a corollary, we obtain the finiteness of rational and elliptic…

We establish the sharp estimate <<_d N^{2/d} for the number of rational points of height at most N on an irreducible projective curve of degree d. We deduce this from a result for general hypersurfaces that is sensitive to the coefficients…
