We show that the Davenport-Stothers inequality from characteristic 0 fails in any characteristic p>3. The proof uses elliptic surfaces over the projective line and inseparable base change. We then present adjusted inequalities. These follow…

In the paper published in Phys. Lett. A245} (1998) 31, Barros and Romero demonstrated that, in the weak-field approximation, solutions to the Brans-Dicke equations are related to the solutions of General Relativity for the same matter…

We address Nash problem for surface singularities using wedges. We give a refinement of the characterisation of A. Reguera of the image of the Nash map in terms of wedges. Our improvement consists in a characterisation of the bijectivity of…

We study local approximation properties in hierarchical spline spaces through a twofold approach. First, we design and analyze a robust adaptive refinement algorithm to construct locally graded meshes. Second, we establish rigorous…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective algebraic variety over a number field $k$ and $P$ in $X(k)$. In 2007, the second author conjectured that, in a precise sense, if rational points on $X$ are dense enough, then the best rational approximations…

We study Brauer-Manin obstructions to the Hasse principle and to weak approximation with special regard to effectivity questions.

We give elementary proof of stronger versions of several recent results on intrinsic Diophantine approximation on rational quadric hypersurfaces $X\subset \mathbb{P}^n(\mathbb{R})$. The main tool is a refinement of the simplex lemma, which…

We verify part of a conjecture of Campana predicting that rational points on the weakly-special non-special simply-connected smooth projective threefolds constructed by Bogomolov-Tschinkel are not dense. To prove our result, we establish…

We determine the odd order torsion subgroup of the Brauer group of diagonal quartic surfaces over the field of rational numbers. We show that a non-constant Brauer element of odd order always obstructs weak approximation but never the Hasse…

A weakly complete space is a complex space admitting a (smooth) plurisubharmonic exhaustion function. In this paper, we classify those weakly complete complex surfaces for which such exhaustion function can be chosen real analytic: they can…

We identify all the weak sequential limits of smooth maps in $W^{1,2}(M,N)$. In particular, this implies a necessary and sufficient topological condition for smooth maps to be weakly sequentially dense in $W^{1,2}(M,N)$.

Suppose M be the projective limit of weak symplectic Banach manifolds \{(M_i,\phi_{ij})\}_{i,j\in\mathbb N}, where M_i are modeled over reflexive Banach space and \sigma is compatible with the inverse system(defined in the article). We…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective split horospherical variety over a number field $k$ and $x\in X(k)$. Contingent on Vojta's conjecture, we construct a curve $C$ through $x$ such that (in a precise sense) rational points on $C$ approximate $x$…

In this Thesis we study surfaces of general type with maximal Albanese dimension for which the quantity $K_X^2-4\chi(\mathcal{O}_X)-4(q-2)$ vanishes or is "small", that is surfaces close to the Severi lines. Over the complex numbers, it is…

The existence of a positive entire weak solution to a singular quasi-linear elliptic system with convection terms is established, chiefly through perturbation techniques, fixed point arguments, and a priori estimates. Some regularity…

In this short note we give a characterization of smooth projective varieties of Picard number one that are separably uniruled but not separably rationally connected. We also give a sufficient condition involving the torsion order and the…

In these notes, we study nonlinear embeddings between Banach spaces which are also weakly sequentially continuous. In particular, our main result implies that if a Banach space $X$ coarsely (resp. uniformly) embeds into a Banach space $Y$…

In this paper, we study the weighted $n$-dimensional badly approximable points on manifolds. Given a $C^n$ differentiable non-degenerate submanifold $\mathcal{U} \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, we will show that any countable intersection of the…

Let $k$ be a number field and let $\pi \colon X \rightarrow\mathbb{P}_k^1$ be a smooth conic bundle. We show that if $X/k$ has four geometric singular fibers and either $X(\mathbb{A}_k)\neq \emptyset$ or $X/k$ has non-trivial Brauer group,…

Starting from an Enriques surface over $\mathbb{Q}(t)$ considered by Lafon, we give the first examples of smooth projective weakly special threefolds which fibre over the projective line in Enriques surfaces (resp. K3 surfaces) with nowhere…
