For a homogeneous space $X$ over a number field $k$, the Brauer-Manin obstruction has been used to study strong approximation for $X$ away from a finite set $S$ of places, and known results state that $X(k)$ is dense in the omitting-$S$…
For a fixed mod $p$ automorphic Galois representation, $p$-adic automorphic Galois representations lifting it determine points in universal deformation space. In the case of modular forms and under some technical conditions, B\"{o}ckle…
Let $k$ be a field, $V$ a $k$-vector space and $X$ be a subset of $V $. A function $f:X\to k$ is weakly polynomial of degree $\leq a$, if the restriction of $f$ on any affine subspace $L\subset X$ is a polynomial of degree $\leq a$. In this…
The Alexander-Hirschowitz theorem says that a general collection of $k$ double points in ${\bf P}^n$ imposes independent conditions on homogeneous polynomials of degree $d$ with a well known list of exceptions. We generalize this theorem to…
We make quantitative improvements to recently obtained results on the structure of the image of a large difference set under certain quadratic forms and other homogeneous polynomials. Previous proofs used deep results of Benoist-Quint on…
Let f : X --> X be a dominant rational map of a projective variety defined over a number field. An important geometric-dynamical invariant of f is its (first) dynamical degree d_f= lim SpecRadius((f^n)^*)^{1/n}. For algebraic points P of X…
Nous montrons que les corps p-adiques et les corps de nombres totalement imaginaires v\'erifient la propri\'et\'e C_1^1 conjectur\'ee par Kato et Kuzumaki en 1986. Autrement dit, si k est l'un de ces corps et f(x_0, ..., x_n) est un…
We prove a quantitative version of the Polynomial Szemeredi Theorem for difference sets. This result is achieved by first establishing a higher dimensional analogue of a theorem of Sarkozy (the simplest non-trivial case of the Polynomial…
In the moduli space of degree d polynomials, the special subvarieties are those cut out by critical orbit relations, and then the special points are the post-critically finite polynomials. It was conjectured that in the moduli space of…
We show that the Zariski closure of the set of hypersurfaces of degree $M$ in ${\mathbb P}^{M}$, where $M\geq 5$, which are either not factorial or not birationally superrigid, is of codimension at least $\binom{M-3}{2}+1$ in the parameter…
We prove that the space of complex irreducible polynomials of degree $d$ in $n$ variables satisfies two forms of homological stability: first, its cohomology stabilizes as $d$ increases, and second, its compactly supported cohomology…
We develop a general theory of Cartesian and non-Cartesian polynomials on products of complex spaces $\mathbb{C}^{n_1} \times \cdots \times \mathbb{C}^{n_k}$. We prove that, for any fixed degree $d \ge 2$, a (Zariski) generic polynomial is…
By the celebrated Weierstrass Theorem the set of algebraic polynomials is dense in the space of continuous functions on a compact set in R^d. In this paper we study the following question: does the density hold if we approximate only by…
We state some generalizations of a theorem due to G. Darboux, which originally states that a polynomial vector field in the complex plane exhibits a rational first integral and has all its orbits algebraic provided that it exhibits…
Due to Narkiewicz a field $F$ has property (P) if for no polynomial $f\in F[x]$ of degree at least two there is an infinite $f$-invariant subset of $F$. We present a new example of an algebraic extension of $\mathbb{Q}$ satisfying (P). This…
Let $(K, v)$ be a Henselian valued field satisfying the following conditions, for a given prime number $p$: (i) central division $K$-algebras of (finite) $p$-primary dimensions have Schur indices equal to their exponents; (ii) the value…
For a homogeneous space X (not necessarily principal) of a connected algebraic group G (not necessarily linear) over a number field k, we prove a theorem of strong approximation for the adelic points of X in the Brauer-Manin set. Namely,…
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…
Let r > 0 be an integer. We present a sufficient condition for an abelian variety A over a number field k to have infinitely many quadratic twists of rank at least r, in terms of density properties of rational points on the Kummer variety…
Let $F$ be a quadratic form in $N \geq 2$ variables defined on a vector space $V \subseteq K^N$ over a global field $K$, and $\Z \subseteq K^N$ be a finite union of varieties defined by families of homogeneous polynomials over $K$. We show…
