In this article we develop a new method for relating Mahler measures of three-variable polynomials that define elliptic modular surfaces to L-values of modular forms. Using an idea of Deninger, we express the Mahler measure as a Deligne…
Given two CM elliptic curves over a number field and a natural number $m$, we establish a polynomial lower bound (in terms of $m$) for the number of rational primes $p$ such that the reductions of these elliptic curves modulo a prime above…
We prove that all elliptic curves defined over totally real cubic fields are modular. This builds on previous work of Freitas, Le Hung and Siksek, who proved modularity of elliptic curves over real quadratic fields, as well as recent…
In our recent work with Mat Rogers on resolving some Boyd's conjectures on two-variate Mahler measures, a new analytical machinery was introduced to write the values $L(E,2)$ of $L$-series of elliptic curves as periods in the sense of…
We study the Mahler measure of the three-variable Laurent polynomial x + 1/x + y + 1/y + z + 1/z - k where k is a parameter. The zeros of this polynomial define (after desingularization) a family of K3-surfaces. In favorable cases, the…
Let $h(x,y)$ be a non-degenerate binary cubic form with integral coefficients, and let $S$ be an arbitrary finite set of prime numbers. By a classical theorem of Mahler, there are only finitely many pairs of relatively prime integers $x,y$…
The hyper-Mahler measures $m_k( 1+x_1+x_2),k\in\mathbb Z_{>1}$ and $m_k( 1+x_1+x_2+x_3),k\in\mathbb Z_{>1}$ are evaluated in closed form via Goncharov-Deligne periods, namely $\mathbb Q$-linear combinations of multiple polylogarithms at…
I compute explicitly the regulator map on $K_4(X)$ for an arbitrary curve $X$ over a number field. Using this and Beilinson's theorem about regulators for modular curves ([B2]) I prove a formula expressing the value of the $L$-function…
In recent years, Rogers and Zudilin developed a method to write $L$-values attached to elliptic curves as periods. In order to apply this method to a broader collection of $L$-values, we study Eisenstein series and determine their Fourier…
We establish a functional identity for Mahler measures of the two-parametric family $P_{a,c}(x,y)=a(x+1/x)+y+1/y+c$. Our result extends an identity proven in a paper of Lal\'{i}n, Zudilin and Samart. As a by-product, we obtain evaluations…
Consider an elliptic curve defined over an imaginary quadratic field $K$ with good reduction at the primes above $p\geq 5$ and has complex multiplication by the full ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$ of $K$. In this paper, we construct…
In this paper, we give an explicit description of the de Rham and p-adic polylogarithms for elliptic curves using the Kronecker theta function. We prove in particular that when the elliptic curve has complex multiplication and good…
Using explicit constructions of the Weierstrass mock modular form, we offer a closed formula for generating the values of shifted convolution $L$-values for certain elliptic curves that can be computed to arbitrary precision. These…
We express the Mahler measure of an exact polynomial in arbitrarily many variables in terms of Deligne-Beilinson cohomology. We then focus on the relationship between the Mahler measure of four-variable exact polynomials and the special…
In this article, we study the Mahler measures of more than 500 families of reciprocal polynomials defining genus 2 and genus 3 curves. We numerically find relations between the Mahler measures of these polynomials with special values of…
Split-CM points are points of the moduli space h_2/Sp_4(Z) corresponding to products $E \times E'$ of elliptic curves with the same complex multiplication. We prove that the number of split-CM points in a given class of h_2/Sp_4(Z) is…
It is well-known that every elliptic curve over the rationals admits a parametrization by means of modular functions. In this short note, we show that only finitely many elliptic curves over $\mathbf{Q}$ can be parametrized by modular…
We consider the Mahler measure of the polynomial 1+x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4, which is the first case not yet evaluated explicitly. A conjecture due to F. Rodriguez-Villegas represents this Mahler measure as a special value at the point 4 of the…
We express the logarithmic Mahler measure of two families of polynomials defining K3 hypersurfaces of generic Picard number 19 in terms of Eisenstein-Kronecker series. For some singular K3 surfaces (i.e of Picard number 20) we write this…
The specializations of the motivic elliptic polylog are called motivic Eisenstein classes. For applications to special values of L-Functions, it is important to compute the realizations of these classes. In this paper, we prove that the…
