Manin's conjecture for the asymptotic behavior of the number of rational points of bounded height on del Pezzo surfaces can be approached through universal torsors. We prove several auxiliary results for the estimation of the number of…

Quadric hypersurfaces are well-known to satisfy the Hasse principle. However, this is no longer true in the case of the Hasse principle for integral points, where counter-examples are known to exist in dimension 1 and 2. This work explores…

Given a set of endomorphisms on $\mathbb{P}^N$, we establish an upper bound on the number of points of bounded height in the associated monoid orbits. Moreover, we give a more refined estimate with an associated lower bound when the monoid…

We give an upper bound for the number of rational points of height at most $B$, lying on a surface defined by a quadratic form $Q$. The bound shows an explicit dependence on $Q$. It is optimal with respect to $B$, and is also optimal for…

Motivated by integral point sets in the Euclidean plane, we consider integral point sets in affine planes over finite fields. An integral point set is a set of points in the affine plane $\mathbb{F}_q^2$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$,…

This is a brief survey of recent works by Neil Trudinger and myself on the Bernstein problem and Plateau problem for affine maximal hypersurfaces.

Let $k$ be a finite field extension of the function field $\bfF_p(T)$ and $\bar{k}$ its algebraic closure. We count points in projective space $\Bbb P ^{n-1}(\bar{k})$ with given height and of fixed degree $d$ over the field $k$. If…

We estimate the maximal number of integral points which can be on a convex arc in the plane with given length, minimal radius of curvature and initial slope.

In this note, we use estimates given in the recent preprint [Her11b]to deduce a formula for the F-pure threshold of a binomial hypersurface over a field of prime characteristic. These formulas are given in terms of the associated splitting…

It is well-known that the Hasse principle holds for quadric hypersurfaces. The Hasse principle fails for integral points on smooth quadric hypersurfaces of dimension 2 but the failure can be completely explained by the Brauer-Manin…

In the paper we obtain the asymtotic number of integral quadratic polynomials with bounded heights and discriminants as the upper bound of heights tends to infinity.

We give an a priori bound on the (n-7)-dimensional measure of the singular set for an area-minimizing n-dimensional hypersurface, in terms of the geometry of its boundary.

We establish sharp lower and upper bounds for the number of integral points near dilations of a space curve with nowhere vanishing torsion.

In this note, we derive a formula for the F-pure threshold of diagonal hypersurfaces over a perfect field of prime characteristic. We also calculate the associated test ideal at the F-pure threshold, and give formulas for higher jumping…

In this paper, we give a uniform upper bound on the rational points of bounded height provided by conics in a cubic surface. For this target, we give a generalized version of the global determinant method of Salberger by Arakelov geometry.

We establish estimates for the number of solutions of certain affine congruences. These estimates are then used to prove Manin's conjecture for a cubic surface split over Q and whose singularity type is D_4. This improves on a result of…

Let $X^n$ be a hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^{n+1}$ with $n\geq 1$ defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of $q$ elements. In this note, we classify, up to projective equivalence, hypersurfaces $X^n$ as above which reach two elementary…

We compute some numerical invariants of the lines on hyperplane sections of a smooth cubic threefold over complex numbers. We also prove that for any smooth hypersurface $X\subset \mathbb P^{n+1}$ of degree $d$ over an algebraically closed…

We give an elementary proof that, for a closed manifold with an integral-integral affine structure, its total volume and number of integral points coincide. The proof uses rational Ehrhart theory and elementary Fourier analysis to estimate…

Conditional on Fourier restriction estimates for elliptic hypersurfaces, we prove optimal restriction estimates for polynomial hypersurfaces of revolution for which the defining polynomial has non-negative coefficients. In particular, we…
