This article surveys some recent work of the author on Hilbert modular fourfolds X. After some preliminaries on the cohomology and special, codimension 2 cycles Z on X of Hirzebruch-Zagier type, a proof of the Tate conjecture for X over…

For the cyclic group $C_2$ we give a complete description of the derived category of perfect complexes of modules over the constant Mackey ring $\underline{\mathbb{Z}/\ell}$, for $\ell$ a prime. This is fairly simple for $\ell$ odd, but for…

We obtain a quantitative version of the classical Chevalley-Weil theorem for curves. Let $\phi : \tilde{C} \to C$ be an unramified morphism of non-singular plane projective curves defined over a number field $K$. We calculate an effective…

Let $k$ be a field finitely generated over the finite field $\mathbb F_p$ of odd characteristic $p$. For any K3 surface $X$ over $k$ we prove that the prime to $p$ component of the cokernel of the natural map $Br(k)\to Br(X)$ is finite.

An Ulrich sheaf on an embedded projective variety is a normalized arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay sheaf with the maximum possible number of independent sections. Ulrich sheaves are important in the theory of Chow forms, Boij-Soderberg theory,…

In this paper, we consider two infinite parametric families of elliptic curves defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ given by the equations $E_{a,b} : y^{2} = x^{3} - a^{2}x + b^{2}$ and $E^{\prime}_{a,b} : y^{2} = x^{3} - a^{2}x + b^{6}$, where $a,b…

Given a smooth quasi-projective complex algebraic variety $\mathcal{S}$, we prove that there are only finitely many Hodge-generic non-isotrivial families of smooth projective hypersurfaces over $\mathcal{S}$ of degree $d$ in…

Let $X$ be a hyperk\"ahler variety, and let $G$ be a group of finite order non-symplectic automorphisms of $X$. Beauville's conjectural splitting property predicts that each Chow group of $X$ should split in a finite number of pieces. The…

We prove Bloch's formula for the Chow group of 0-cycles with modulus on smooth projective varieties over finite fields. The proof relies on two new results in global ramification theory.

Given an elliptic curve $E$ over a perfect defectless henselian valued field $(F,\mathrm{val})$ with perfect residue field $\textbf{k}_F$ and valuation ring $\mathcal{O}_F$, there exists an integral separated smooth group scheme…

We introduce a notion of permutation presentations of modules over finite groups, and completely determine finite groups over which every module has a permutation presentation. To get this result, we prove that every coflasque module over a…

We study the number of elliptic curves, up to isomorphism, over a fixed quartic field $K$ having a prescribed torsion group $T$ as a subgroup. Let $T=\Z/m\Z \oplus \Z/n\Z$, where $m|n$, be a torsion group such that the modular curve…

We prove a sufficient condition for the vanishing of the modified diagonal cycle in the Chow group (with $\mathbb{Q}$-coefficients) of the triple product of a curve over $\mathbb{C}$. We exhibit infinitely many non-hyperelliptic curves,…

We prove the conjectures of Yau-Zaslow and Gottsche concerning the number curves on K3 surfaces. Specifically, let X be a K3 surface and C be a holomorphic curve in X representing a primitive homology class. We count the number of curves of…

We realize infinitely many covering groups $2.A_n$ (where $A_n$ is the alternating group) as the Galois group of everywhere unramified Galois extensions over infinitely many quadratic number fields. After several predecessor works…

Let $C_\ell/\mathbb Q$ denote the curve with affine model $y^\ell=x(x^\ell-1)$, where $\ell\geq 3$ is prime. In this paper we study the limiting distributions of the normalized $L$-polynomials of the curves by computing their Sato-Tate…

The classical Neukirch-Uchida theorem states that the absolute Galois group determines a number field up to isomorphism. We prove an analogue of this theorem for 3-manifolds in the framework of arithmetic topology. We study infinite links…

We prove the existence of curves of genus $7$ and $12$ over the field with $11^5$ elements, reaching the Hasse-Weil-Serre upper bound. These curves are quotients of modular curves and we give explicit equations. We compute the number of…

We show that every countable subgroup $G<\rm GL_+(2,\mathbb{R})$ without contracting elements is the Veech group of a tame translation surface $S$ of infinite genus, for infinitely many different topological types of $S$. Moreover, we prove…
