We study strong approximation of the equation N_{L/k}(x) = \prod_{i=1}^n p_i(t) where L/k is a finite extension of number fields and p_i(t)'s are distinct irreducible polynomials over k. We prove this equation satisfies strong approximation…

Given a smooth projective variety $X$ over a number field $k$ and $P\in X(k)$, the first author conjectured that in a precise sense, any sequence that approximates $P$ sufficiently well must lie on a rational curve. We prove this conjecture…

We show that every smooth toric variety (and many other algebraic spaces as well) can be realized as a moduli space for smooth, projective, polarized varieties. Some of these are not quasi--projective. This contradicts a recent paper…

This paper proves that every projective toric variety is the fine moduli space for stable representations of an appropriate bound quiver. To accomplish this, we study the quiver $Q$ with relations $R$ corresponding to the finite-dimensional…

Using the tractor calculus to study smooth metric measure spaces, we adapt results of Gover and Nurowski to give sharp metric obstructions to the existence of quasi-Einstein metrics on suitably generic manifolds. We do this by introducing…

In weighted Orlicz type spaces ${\mathcal S}_{_{\scriptstyle \mathbf p,\,\mu}}$ with a variable summation exponent, the direct and inverse approximation theorems are proved in terms of best approximations of functions and moduli of…

We introduce the notion of ample body of a projective variety and use it to prove emptiness results for Terracini loci and specific identifiability results for toric and homogeneous varieties.

In this paper, we prove that: For any given finitely many distinct points $P_1,...,P_r$ and a closed subvariety $S$ of codimension $\geq 2$ in a complete toric variety over a uncountable (characteristic 0) algebraically closed field, there…

Over the function field of a complex algebraic curve, strong approximation off a non-empty finite set of places holds for the complement of a codimension $2$ closed subset in a homogeneous space under a semisimple algebraic group, and for…

In this paper we determine the canonical arithmetic volume of hypersurfaces in smooth projective toric varieties. As a consequence, we prove a generalized Hodge index theorem on hypersurfaces in smooth projective toric varieties.

Let $X$ be a complete $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial toric variety. We explicitly describe the space $H^2(X,T_X)$ and the cup product map $H^1(X,T_X)\times H^1(X,T_X)\to H^2(X,T_X)$ in combinatorial terms. Using this, we give an example of a smooth…

In this paper I verify Manin's conjecture for a class of rational projective toric varieties with a large class of heights other than the usual one that comes from the standard metric on projective space.

Approximative properties of linear summation methods of Fourier series are considered in the Orlicz type spaces ${\mathcal S}_{M}$. In particular, in terms of approximations by such methods, constructive characteristics are obtained for…

Zero-cycles are conjectured to satisfy weak approximation with Brauer-Manin obstruction for proper smooth varieties defined over number fields. Roughly speaking, we prove that the conjecture is compatible for products of rationally…
