In this paper, we reformulate conjectural formulas for the arithmetic intersection numbers of special cycles on unitary Shimura varieties with minuscule parahoric level structure in terms of weighted counting of lattices containing special…
In unpublished notes Pila proposed a Modular Zilber-Pink with Derivatives (MZPD) conjecture, which is a Zilber-Pink type statement for the modular $j$-function and its derivatives. In this article we define D-special varieties, then state…
In these notes I proved the Chai-Faltings version of Eichler-Shimura congruence relation for simple GSpin Shimura varieties. This extends the results by Bueltel, Wedhorn and Koskivirta.
The Mordell-Lang conjecture describes the intersection of a finitely generated subgroup with a closed subvariety of a semiabelian variety. Equivalently, this conjecture describes the intersection of closed subvarieties with the set of…
On an orthogonal Shimura variety, one has a collection of special cycles in the Gillet-Soule arithmetic Chow group. We describe how these cycles behave under pullback to an embedded orthogonal Shimura variety of lower dimension. The bulk of…
We answer some questions related to multiplicity formulas by Rosenthal and Zelevinsky and by Lakshmibai and Weyman for points on Schubert varieties in Grassmannians. In particular, we give combinatorial interpretations in terms of…
Inspired by recent works on rings satisfying Auslander's conjecture, we study invariants, which we call Auslander bounds, and prove that they have strong relations to some homological conjectures.
We prove a conjecture of Michel--Venkatesh on joinings of distinct Linnik problems, in the setting of simultaneous quaternionic embeddings of imaginary quadratic fields having sufficiently many small split primes. This splitting condition…
These brief notes record our puzzles and findings surrounding Givental's recent conjecture which expresses higher genus Gromov-Witten invariants in terms of the genus-0 data. We limit our considerations to the case of a projective line,…
In this paper we study the Oort conjecture on Shimura subvarieties contained generically in the Torelli locus in the Siegel modular variety $\mathcal{A}_g$. Using the poly-stability of Higgs bundles on curves and the slope inequality of…
Given subvarieties $X, Y$ of a complex algebraic variety $S$ of complementary dimension, must they intersect? When $S$ is projective space, this is a consequence of the classical B\'ezout theorem, and an analogue for simple abelian…
We present new conjectures on the distribution of link patterns for fully-packed loop (FPL) configurations that are invariant, or almost invariant, under a quarter turn rotation, extending previous conjectures of Razumov and Stroganov and…
In this largely expository note, we explain some recent progress on new cycles on Shimura varieties and Rapoport-Zink spaces, (twisted) arithmetic fundamental lemma, and arithmetic analogs of relative Langlands program. We explain related…
We prove a special case of the following conjecture of Zilber-Pink generalising the Manin-Mumford conjecture : let $X$ be a curve inside an Abelian variety $A$ over $\bar{\Q}$, provided $X$ is not contained in a torsion subvariety, the…
We propose a model-theoretic structure for Shimura varieties and give necessary and sufficient conditions to obtain categoricity. We show that these conditions are directly related to important conjectures in number theory coming from…
We prove a degenerate homological Arnol'd conjecture on Lagrangian intersections beyond the case studied by A. Floer and H. Hofer via a new version of Lagrangian Ljusternik--Schnirelman theory. We introduce the notion of (Lagrangian)…
In this paper, we prove the Shafarevich conjecture for certain complete intersections of hypersurfaces in abelian varieties defined over a number field $K$ using the Lawrence-Venkatesh method. The main new inputs we need are computation of…
We prove the existence of weak integral canonical models of Shimura varieties of Hodge type in arbitrary unramified mixed characteristic $(0,p)$. As a first application we solve a conjecture of Langlands for Shimura varieties of Hodge type.…
We study intersection cohomology of character varieties for punctured Riemann surfaces with prescribed monodromies around the punctures. Relying on previous result from Mellit for semisimple monodromies we compute the intersection…
The purpose of this article is to give a new construction of the map relating the Borel-Serre and the Baily-Borel compactifications of a Shimura variety (Zucker 1983), and to provide a close analysis of its main properties.
