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 explore systems of polynomial equations where we seek complex solutions with absolute value 1. Geometrically, this amounts to understanding intersections of algebraic varieties with tori -- Cartesian powers of the unit circle. We study…

We prove Manin's conjecture concerning the distribution of rational points of bounded height, and its refinement by Peyre, for wonderful compactifications of semi-simple algebraic groups over number fields. The proof proceeds via the study…

In analogy with the Manin-Mumford conjecture for algebraic curves, one may ask how a metric graph under the Abel-Jacobi embedding intersects torsion points of its Jacobian. We show that the number of torsion points is finite for metric…

We show, under some natural conditions, that the set of abelian points on the non-anomalous subset of a closed irreducible subvariety $X$ intersected with the union of connected algebraic subgroups of codimension at least $\dim X$ in a…

Suppose $F$ is either a global field or a finitely generated extension of ${\mathbf Q}$, $A$ is an abelian variety over $F$, and $\ell$ is a prime not equal to the characteristic of $F$. Let $Z$ denote the center of the endomorphism algebra…

Consider a fibered power of an elliptic surface. We characterize its subvarieties that contain a Zariski dense set of points that are torsion points in fibers with complex multiplication. This result can be viewed as a mix of the…

We formulate the Asymptotic Length-Saturation Conjecture on the length sets of closed geodesics on hyperbolic manifolds whose fundamental groups are subarithmetic, that is, contained in an arithmetic group. We prove the first instance of…

We study covers of the multiplicative group of an algebraically closed field as quasiminimal pregeometry structures and prove that they satisfy the axioms for Zariski-like structures presented in \cite{lisuriart}, section 4. These axioms…

We classify the Rauzy-Veech groups of all connected components of all strata of the moduli space of translation surfaces in absolute homology, showing, in particular, that they are commensurable to arithmetic lattices of symplectic groups.…

In this paper we prove a special case of the Andr\'e-Oort conjecture for Kuga varieties. If $M$ is a Kuga variety fibred over a pure Shimura variety $S$ as an abelian scheme, and $(M_n)$ is a sequence of special subvarieties in $M$ which…

A framework is developed to describe the Zariski topologies on the prime and primitive spectra of a quantum algebra $A$ in terms of the (known) topologies on strata of these spaces and maps between the collections of closed sets of…

The JSJ decomposition and the Makanin-Razborov diagram were proved to be essential in studying varieties over free groups, semigroups and associative algebras. In this paper we suggest a unified conceptual approach to the applicability of…

We formulate and analyze several finiteness conjectures for linear algebraic groups over higher-dimensional fields. In fact, we prove all of these conjectures for algebraic tori as well as in some other situations. This work relies in an…

Split toric stacks over a number field $F$ are natural generalization of split toric varieties over $F$. Notable examples are weighted projective stacks. In our previous work, we defined heights on Deligne-Mumford stacks using so-called…

We prove that any smooth projective geometrically connected non-isotrivial curve of genus $g\ge 2$ over a one-dimensional function field of any characteristic has at most $16g^2+32g+124$ torsion points for any Abel-Jacobi embedding of the…

The Zariski topology on a group G is the coarsest topology such that all sets of the form $\{x \in G | 1_G \neq g_0 x^{k_0} g_1 ... g_{l-1} x^{k_{l-1}} g_l\}$ are open. Originally introduced by Bryant as the verbal topology, it serves as a…
