We give an example of a Teichm\"uller curve which contains, in a factor of its monodromy, a group which was not observed before. Namely, it has Zariski closure equal to the group $SO^*(6)$ in its standard representation; up to finite index,…

For $i=1,\ldots,k$, let $\mathbf{G}_i$ be a connected, simply connected, semisimple algebraic group over some local field $\kappa_i$ of characteristic zero. Let $G_i=\mathbf{G}_i(\kappa_i)$ be the $\kappa_i$-points of $\mathbf{G}_i$ and…

We extend classical density theorems of Borel and Dani--Shalom on lattices in semisimple, respectively solvable algebraic groups over local fields to approximate lattices. Our proofs are based on the observation that Zariski closures of…

We formulate and prove a generalization of Zariski-van Kampen theorem on the topological fundamental groups of smooth complex algebraic varieties. As an application, we prove a hyperplane section theorem of Lefschetz-Zariski-van Kampen type…

We prove Sarnak's spherical density conjecture for the principal congruence subgroup of SL(n, Z) of arbitrary level. Applications include a complete version of Sarnak's optimal lifting conjecture for principal congruence subgroups of SL(n,…

Zariski decompositions play an important role in the theory of algebraic surfaces. For making geometric use of the decomposition of a given divisor, one needs to pass to a multiple of the divisor in order to clear denominators. It is…

We show that, for a polarised smooth projective variety $B \hookrightarrow \mathbb{P}^n_k$ of dimension $\geq 2$ over an infinite field $k$ and an abelian variety $A$ over the function field of $B$, there exists a dense Zariski open set of…

We show that for a variety which admits a quasi-finite period map, finiteness (resp.~non-Zariski-density) of $S$-integral points implies finiteness (resp.~non-Zariski-density) of points over all $\mathbb{Z}$-finitely generated integral…

We study the completion of a group relative to a Zariski dense representation in a reductive algebraic group over a field $k$. The characteristic zero case was worked out previously by R. Hain; we extend his results to arbitrary…

We show that the semigroup Zariski topology on a group can be strictly coarser than the group Zariski topology on it, answering a question of Elliott, Jonusas, Mesyan, Mitchell, Morayne, and Peresse.

We show that any lattice in $\mathrm{SL}_3(k)$, where $k$ is a nonarchimedean local field, contains an undistorted subgroup isomorphic to the free product $\mathbb{Z}^2*\mathbb{Z}$. To our knowledge, the subgroups we construct give the…

A K3 surface over a number field has infinitely many rational points over a finite field extension. For K3 surfaces of degree 2, arising as double covers of $\mathbb{P}^2$ branched along a smooth sextic curve, we give a bound for the degree…

We prove a conjecture of Medvedev and Scanlon for endomorphisms of connected commutative linear algebraic groups $G$ defined over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{k}$ of characteristic $0$. That is, if $\Phi\colon G\longrightarrow G$…

We consider the variety of pre-Lie algebra structures on a given n-dimensional vector space. The group GL_n(K) acts on it, and we study the closure of the orbits with respect to the Zariski topology. This leads to the definition of pre-Lie…

Let $C_1,\ldots,C_e$ be noncentral conjugacy classes of the algebraic group $G=SL_n(k)$ defined over a sufficiently large field $k$, and let $\Omega:=C_1\times \ldots \times C_e$. This paper determines necessary and sufficient conditions…

Recently, Corvaja and Zannier obtained an extension of the Subspace Theorem with arbitrary homogeneous polynomials of arbitrary degreee instead of linear forms. Their result states that the set of solutions in P^n(K) (K number field) of the…

Let $k$ be an infinite field of characteristic 0, and $X$ a del Pezzo surface of degree $d$ with at least one $k$-rational point. Various methods from algebraic geometry and arithmetic statistics have shown the Zariski density of the set…

We discuss the spectral decomposition of the hypergeometric differential operators on the line $\mathrm{Re}\, z=1/2$. Such operators arise in the problem of decomposition of tensor products of unitary representations of the universal…

We show that every complete noetherian local commutative ring R with residue field k can be realized as a universal deformation ring of a continuous linear representation of a profinite group. More specifically, R is the universal…

In this article, we establish results concerning the cohomology of Zariski dense subgroups of solvable linear algebraic groups. We show that for an irreducible solvable $\mathbb{Q}$-defined linear algebraic group $\mathbf{G}$, there exists…
