We give a method for finding rational equations of genus 2 curves whose jacobians are abelian varieties $A_f$ attached by Shimura to normalized newforms $f \in S_2( \Gamma_0(N))$. We present all the curves corresponding to principally…
Given a number field $K$ and a polynomial $f(z) \in K[z]$ of degree at least 2, one can construct a finite directed graph $G(f,K)$ whose vertices are the $K$-rational preperiodic points for $f$, with an edge $\alpha \to \beta$ if and only…
Let X be a non-singular projective hypersurface of degree 4, which is defined over the rational numbers. Assume that X has dimension 39 or more, and that X contains a real point and p-adic points for every prime p. Then X is shown to…
The main result of this text is a generalization of Perrin-Riou's p-adic Gross-Zagier formula to the case of Shimura curves over totally real fields. Let $F$ be a totally real field. Let $f$ be a Hilbert modular form over $F$ of parallel…
Let $X$ be a variety over $\mathbb Q$. We introduce a geometric non-degenerate criterion for $X$ using moduli spaces $M$ over $\mathbb Q$ of abelian varieties. If $X$ is non-degenerate, then we construct via $M$ an open dense moduli space…
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 $n\ge 3$.…
In this article one extends the classical theory of (intermediate) Jacobians to the "noncommutative world". Concretely, one constructs a Q-linear additive Jacobian functor J(-) from the category of noncommutative Chow motives to the…
We study the arithmetic of the twist of the Fermat quartic defined by $X^4 + Y^4 + Z^4 = 0$ which has no $\mathbb{Q}$-rational point. We calculate the Mordell--Weil group of the Jacobian variety explicilty. We show that the degree $0$ part…
Let $G$ be a finite group and, for a given complex character $\chi$ of $G$, let ${\mathbb{Q}}(\chi)$ denote the field extension of ${\mathbb{Q}}$ obtained by adjoining all the values $\chi(g)$, for $g\in G$. The group $G$ is called…
The number of rational points in toric data are given for two-parameter Calabi-Yau $n$-folds as toric hypersurfaces over finite fields $\mathbb F_p$ . We find that the fundamental period is equal to the number of rational points of the…
We study the intersection of two particular Fermat hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{P}^3$ over a finite field. Using the Kani-Rosen decomposition we study arithmetic properties of this curve in terms of its quotients. Explicit computation of the…
We develop a strategy for bounding from above the height of rational points of modular curves with values in number fields, by functions which are polynomial in the curve's level. Our main technical tools come from effective Arakelov…
We study the problem of efficiently constructing a curve C of genus 2 over a finite field F for which either the curve C itself or its Jacobian has a prescribed number N of F-rational points. In the case of the Jacobian, we show that any…
A central problem in arithmetic geometry is to construct non-torsion rational points on elliptic curves. We study a canonical quadratic point $\xi_C \in {\rm Jac}(C)$ attached to a smooth non-hyperelliptic curve of genus 4 and use it to…
For a fixed odd prime p and a representation \rho of the absolute Galois group of Q into the projective group PGL(2,p), we provide the twisted modular curves whose rational points supply the quadratic Q-curves of degree N prime to p that…
For commutators of the form [b,T] where T is any Calderon--Zygmund operator and b is any BMO function we derive weighted quadratic type estimates in term of the A1 constant of the weight both in the Lp context or of LlogL type at the…
An arithmetic method of proving the irrationality of smooth projective 3-folds is described, using reduction modulo $p$. It is illustrated by an application to a cubic threefold, for which the hypothesis that its intermediate Jacobian is…
Let $x=(x_1,\ldots,x_n)\in {\rm \bf C}^n$ be a vector of complex variables, denote by $A=(a_{jk})$ a square matrix of size $n\geq 2,$ and let $\varphi\in\mathcal{O}(\Omega)$ be an analytic function defined in a nonempty domain…
We present a practical, unconditional algorithm for determining the $S$-integral points on any elliptic moduli problem $\mathcal{Y}/\mathbb{Z}[1/S]$ -- that is, on any geometrically connected curve carrying a non-isotrivial elliptic…
Let $p$ be a prime number and let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve of conductor $p^2$ and odd analytic rank. We prove that the positions of its special points arising from non-split Cartan curves and imaginary quadratic fields where $p$…
