Recently, Lehmann, Sengupta, and Tanimoto proposed a conjectural construction of the exceptional set in Manin's Conjecture, which we call the geometric exceptional set. We construct a del Pezzo surface of degree $1$ whose geometric…
In this survey paper we study Manin's Conjecture from a geometric perspective. The focus of the paper is the recent conjectural description of the exceptional set in Manin's Conjecture due to Lehmann-Sengupta-Tanimoto. After giving an…
We conjecture that the exceptional set in Manin's Conjecture has an explicit geometric description. Our proposal includes the rational point contributions from any generically finite map with larger geometric invariants. We prove that this…
Manin's Conjecture predicts the rate of growth of rational points of a bounded height after removing those lying on an exceptional set. We study whether the exceptional set in Manin's Conjecture is a thin set.
Geometric Manin's conjecture for complex Fano varieties describes the structure of the moduli space of curves. We propose a version of this conjecture in characteristic $p$ and describe its connection to the Batyrev--Manin--Peyre--Tschinkel…
This is a report of the author's talk at Kinosaki Algebraic Geometry Symposium 2018. We discuss some recent progress on the geometry of thin exceptional sets in Manin's Conjecture.
The Manin-Peyre conjecture is established for smooth spherical Fano threefolds of semisimple rank one and type N. Together with the previously solved case T and the toric cases, this covers all types of smooth spherical Fano threefolds. The…
In 1991 Campana and Peternell proposed, as a natural algebro-geometric extension of Mori's characterization of the projective space, the problem of classifying the complex projective Fano manifolds whose tangent bundle is nef, conjecturing…
The Manin conjecture is established for Ch\^atelet surfaces over Q arising as minimal proper smooth models of the surface Y^2+Z^2=f(X) where f is a totally reducible polynomial of degree 3 without repeated roots. These surfaces do not…
Let $X$ be a projective Fano manifold of Picard number one, different from the projective space. There is a folklore conjecture that any non-constant endomorphism of $X$ is an isomorphism. In the first half of this article, we will prove…
King's conjecture states that on every smooth complete toric variety $X$ there exists a strongly exceptional collection which generates the bounded derived category of $X$ and which consists of line bundles. We give a counterexample to this…
We prove a conjecture of Lehmann-Tanimoto about the behaviour of the Fujita invariant (or $a$-constant appearing in Manin's conjecture) under pull-back to generically finite covers. As a consequence we obtain results about geometric…
Let $B$ be a smooth projective curve and let $\pi: \mathcal{X} \to B$ be a smooth integral model of a geometrically integral Fano variety over $K(B)$. Geometric Manin's Conjecture predicts the structure of the irreducible components $M…
For a toric Fano manifold $X$ denote by $Crit(X) \subset (\mathbb{C}^{\ast})^n$ the solution scheme of the Landau-Ginzburg system of equations of $X$. Examples of toric Fano manifolds with $rk(Pic(X)) \leq 3$ which admit full strongly…
The author introduces a conjecture about Makar-Limanov invariants of affine unique factorization domains over a field of characteristic zero. Then the author finds that the conjecture does not always hold when $\mathbbm{k}$ is not…
Bernardi and Tirabassi show the existence of full strong exceptional collections consisting of line bundles on smooth toric Fano $3$-folds under assuming Bondal's conjecture, which states that the Frobenius push-forward of the structure…
A conjecture of Batyrev and Manin relates arithmetic properties of varieties with ample anticanonical class to geometric invariants; in particular, counting functions defined by metrized ample line bundles and the corresponding asymptotics…
In this short note we discuss the exceptional locus for the Lang-Vojta's conjecture in the case of the complement of two completely reducible hyperplane sections in a cubic surface. Using elementary methods, we show that generically the…
A new notion of thickness for subsets of $B[0,1]\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ called affine thickness is defined; this notion of thickness is a generalisation of Falconer-Yavicoli thickness and is adapted to be used in the study of certain sets…
The Tannakian formalism allows to attach to any subvariety of an abelian variety an algebraic group in a natural way. The arising groups are closely related to moduli questions such as the Schottky problem, but their geometric…
