Asymptotics are given for the number of rational points in the domain of a morphism of weighted projective stacks whose images have bounded height and satisfy a (possibly infinite) set of local conditions. As a consequence we obtain results…

Currently, the best upper bounds on the number of rational points on an absolutely irreducible, smooth, projective algebraic curve of genus g defined over a finite field F_q come either from Serre's refinement of the Weil bound if the genus…

We consider all genus 2 curves over Q given by an equation y^2 = f(x) with f a squarefree polynomial of degree 5 or 6, with integral coefficients of absolute value at most 3. For each of these roughly 200000 isomorphism classes of curves,…

This paper is concerned with the density of rational points of bounded height lying on a variety defined by an integral quadratic form Q. In the case of four variables, we give an estimate that does not depend on the coefficients of Q. For…

In this paper, we prove an explicit upper bound on the number of rational points on a smooth projective curve of genus at least two over a number field. This gives explicit constants in the uniform Mordell conjecture proposed by Mazur and…

For any number field k, upper bounds are established for the number of k-rational points of bounded height on non-singular del Pezzo surfaces defined over k, which are equipped with suitable conic bundle structures over k.

An asymptotic formula is established for the number of rational points of bounded anticanonical height which lie on a certain Zariski open subset of an arbitrary smooth biquadratic hypersurface in sufficiently many variables. The proof uses…

We extend an earlier result by Dan Abramovich, showing that a conjecture of S. Lang's implies the existence of a uniform bound on the number of $K$-rational points over all smooth curves of genus $g$ defined over $K$, where $K$ is any…

We consider the structure of rational points on elliptic curves in Weierstrass form. Let x(P)=A_P/B_P^2 denote the $x$-coordinate of the rational point P then we consider when B_P can be a prime power. Using Faltings' Theorem we show that…

Bounding the number of rational points of height at most $H$ on irreducible algebraic plane curves of degree $d$ has been an intense topic of investigation since the work by Bombieri and Pila. In this paper we establish optimal dependence…

We show that transcendental curves in $\mathbb R^n$ (not necessarily compact) have few rational points of bounded height provided that the curves are well behaved with respect to algebraic sets in a certain sense and can be parametrized by…
