A conjecture of Manin predicts the distribution of K-rational points on certain algebraic varieties defined over a number field K. In recent years, a method using universal torsors has been successfully applied to several hard special cases…

Manin's conjecture predicts the asymptotic behavior of the number of rational points of bounded height on algebraic varieties. For toric varieties, it was proved by Batyrev and Tschinkel via height zeta functions and an application of the…

We construct families of curves which provide counterexamples for a uniform boundedness question. These families generalize those studied previously by several authors. We show, in detail, what fails in the argument of Caporaso, Harris,…

In this paper we investigate a family of algebraic stacks, the so-called stacky curves, in the context of the general theory of heights on algebraic stacks due to Ellenberg, Satriano, and Zureick-Brown. We first give an elementary…

Using the circle method, we count integer points on complete intersections in biprojective space in boxes of different side length, provided the number of variables is large enough depending on the degree of the defining equations and…

We prove an estimate on the number of rational points on the Grassmannian variety of bounded twisted height, refining the classical results of Schmidt ([12]) and Thunder ([20]) over the rational field: most importantly, our formula counts…

In this note we give exact formulas (and asymptotics) for the number of rational points of bounded height on weighted projective stacks over global function fields.

A weighted projective stack is a stacky quotient $\mathscr P(\mathbf a)=(\mathbf A^n-\{0\})/\mathbb G_m$, where the action of $\mathbb G_m$ is with weights $\mathbf a\in\mathbb Z^n_{>0}$. Examples are: the compactified moduli stack of…

An important problem in analytic and geometric combinatorics is estimating the number of lattice points in a compact convex set in a Euclidean space. Such estimates have numerous applications throughout mathematics. In this note, we exhibit…

A conjecture of Malle predicts the quantity of number fields with bounded discriminant of given Galois group. We present a lower bound matching this in the case of quartic fields with Galois group $A_4$.

This is the second paper in a series on enumerative invariants counting self-dual objects in self-dual categories, and is a sequal to (arXiv:2302.00038). Ordinary enumerative invariants in abelian categories can be seen as invariants for…

In this note we give a counter example to a conjecture of Malle which predicts the asymptotic behaviour of the counting functions for field extensions with given Galois group and bounded discriminant.

We describe the relations among the $\ell$-torsion conjecture, a conjecture of Malle giving an upper bound for the number of extensions, and the discriminant multiplicity conjecture. We prove that the latter two conjectures are equivalent…

We construct small models of number fields and deduce a better bound for the number of number fields of given degree and bounded discriminant.

Motivated by the work of Chudnovsky and the Eisenbud-Mazur Conjecture on evolutions, Harbourne and Huneke give a series of conjectures that relate symbolic and regular powers of ideals of fat points in $\mathbb P^n$. The conjectures involve…

We remark that the combination of the works of Ben-Bassat-Brav-Bussi-Joyce and Alper-Hall-Rydh imply the conjectured local description of the moduli stacks of semi-Schur objects in the derived category of coherent sheaves on projective…

Using the ring space of sheared Witt vectors, we define certain ring stacks. We suggest several models for the ring stacks. Motivation: there is a conjectural description of the stack of n-truncated Barsotti-Tate groups and its Shimurian…

This note discusses some intriguing connections between height bounds on complex K-semistable Fano varieties X and Peyre's conjectural formula for the density of rational points on X. Relations to an upper bound for the smallest rational…

We explore the possibility of extending Mardare et al. quantitative algebras to the structures which naturally emerge from Combinatory Logic and the lambda-calculus. First of all, we show that the framework is indeed applicable to those…

Let $n$ be a positive multiple of $4$. We establish an asymptotic formula for the number of rational points of bounded height on singular cubic hypersurfaces $S_n$ defined by $$ x^3=(y_1^2 + \cdots + y_n^2)z . $$ This result is new in two…
