Let $C$ be a smooth projective curve defined over $\Qbar$, let $\pi:\mathcal{E}\lra C$ be an elliptic surface and let $\sigma_{P_1},\sigma_{P_2},\sigma_{Q}$ be sections of $\pi$ (corresponding to points $P_1,P_2, Q$ of the generic fiber $E$…
Let $X$ be a quadratic vector field with a center whose generic orbits are algebraic curves of genus one. To each $X$ we associate an elliptic surface (a smooth complex compact surface which is a genus one fibration). We give the list of…
Let Y be a surface with only finitely many singularities all of which are cusps. A set of cusps on Y is called three-divisible, if there is a cyclic global triple cover of Y branched precisely over these cusps. The aim of this note is to…
We prove that elliptic K3 surfaces over a number field which admit a second elliptic fibration satisfy the potential Hilbert property. Equivalently, the set of their rational points is not thin after a finite extension of the base field.…
We introduce a class of iterated integrals, defined through a set of linearly independent integration kernels on elliptic curves. As a direct generalisation of multiple polylogarithms, we construct our set of integration kernels ensuring…
We use the Circle Method to derive asymptotic formulas for functions related to the number of parts of partitions in particular residue classes.
This is an expository paper which presents the holomorphic classification of rational complex surfaces from a simple and intuitive point of view, which is not found in the literature. Our approach is to compare this classification with the…
We present experimental evidence to support the widely held belief that one half of all elliptic curves have infinitely many rational points. The method used to gather this evidence is a refinement of an algorithm due to the author which is…
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…
In this paper, we propose a numerical method for verifying the positiveness of solutions to semilinear elliptic equations. We provide a sufficient condition for a solution to an elliptic equation to be positive in the domain of the…
This paper aims to develop the mathematical representation of a surface generated by elliptical arcs joining the sides of a regular polygon to a point lying vertically upward on the central axis of the polygon. The volume of the…
We prove an effective estimate with a power saving error term for the number of square-tiled surfaces in a connected component of a stratum of quadratic differentials whose vertical and horizontal foliations belong to prescribed mapping…
We prove that any smooth cubic surface defined over any number field satisfies the lower bound predicted by Manin's conjecture possibly after an extension of small degree.
We study surfaces constructed from groups of units in quaternion orders $\Lambda$ over the integers in real quadratic fields k. A short presentation of some general theory of such surfaces is given, in particular, we construct certain…
We study elliptic K3 surfaces with Mordell Weil rank 0, and which has a 2-torsion section $\sigma$ such that the translation by $\sigma$ gives a Shioda-Inose structure.
We give an elementary proof of a recent result by Fishman, Kleinbock, Merrill and Simmons about rational points on quadratic surfaces.
As a generalization of a quasi-elliptic surface, there is a quasi-hyperelliptic surface, a nonsingular projective surface which has a fibration structure whose general fiber is a quasi-hyperelliptic curve ($=$ singular hyperelliptic curve…
We derive level set version of partial uniform ellipticity for symmetric concave functions. This suggests an effective approach to investigate second order fully nonlinear equations of elliptic and parabolic type.
We prove rationality results for moduli spaces of elliptic K3 surfaces and elliptic rational surfaces with fixed monodromy groups.
It is proved that a smooth rational surface in projective four-space, which is ruled by cubics or quartics has degree at most 12. It is also proved that a smooth rational surface in projective four-space which is the image of Fn by a linear…
