The Shafarevich conjecture for a class of varieties over a number field posits the finitude of those with good reduction outside a finite set of primes. In the case of hypersurfaces in the torus $\mathbb{G}_m^n$, a natural class to consider…

The purpose of this article is two-fold: We first give a more elementary proof of a recent theorem of Korkmaz, Monden, and the author, which states that the commutator length of the n-th power of a Dehn twist along a boundary parallel curve…

Let C be a curve of genus at least 2 imbedded in a product of elliptic curves. We give an explicit upper bound for the points in the intersection of C with the union of all algebraic subgroups of a certain codimension. As a corollary we…

We establish the Hodge conjecture for some subvarieties of a class of toric varieties. First we study quasi-smooth intersections in a projective simplicial toric variety, which is a suitable notion to generalize smooth complete intersection…

We consider two mixed curve $C,C'\subset {\Bbb C}^2$ which are defined by mixed functions of two variables $\bf z=(z_1,z_2)$. We have shown in \cite{MC}, that they have canonical orientations. If $C$ and $C'$ are smooth and intersect…

We consider the functional given by the product of the first Dirichlet eigenvalue and the torsional rigidity of planar domains normalized by the area. This scale invariant functional was studied by P\'olya and Szeg\H{o} in 1951 who showed…

We obtain new invariants of topological link concordance and homology cobordism of 3-manifolds from Hirzebruch-type intersection form defects of towers of iterated p-covers. Our invariants can extract geometric information from an arbitrary…

Let E be an elliptic curve over Q with complex multiplication by the ring of integers of an imaginary quadratic field K. In 1991, by studying a certain special value of the Katz two-variable p-adic L-function lying outside the range of…

We prove several cases of Zimmer's conjecture for actions of higher-rank cocompact lattices on low dimensional manifolds. For example, if $\Gamma$ is a cocompact lattice in $\mathrm{Sl}(n, \mathbb R)$, $M$ is a compact manifold, and…

A classical theorem by K. Ribet asserts that an abelian variety defined over the maximal cyclotomic extension $K$ of a number field has only finitely many torsion points. We show that this statement can be viewed as a particular case of a…

A theorem of Kushnirenko and Bernstein shows that the number of isolated roots of a system of polynomials in a torus is bounded above by the mixed volume of the Newton polytopes of the given polynomials, and this upper bound is generically…

A conjecture of Marton, widely known as the polynomial Freiman-Ruzsa conjecture, was recently proved by Gowers, Green, Manners and Tao for any bounded-torsion Abelian group $G$. In this paper we show a few simple modifications that improve…

Two conjectures are presented. The first, Conjecture 1, is that the pushforward of a geometric distribution on the integers under $n$ Collatz iterates, modulo $2^p$, is usefully close to uniform distribution on the integers modulo $2^p$, if…

Schinzel's Hypothesis (H) was used by Colliot-Th\'el\`ene and Sansuc, and later by Serre, Swinnerton-Dyer and others, to prove that the Brauer-Manin obstruction controls the Hasse principle and weak approximation on pencils of conics and…

In this paper, we confirm a conjecture of Laborde-Zubieta on the enumeration of corners in tree-like tableaux. Our proof is based on Aval, Boussicault and Nadeau's bijection between tree-like tableaux and permutation tableaux, and Corteel…

Inspired by a method of La Bret\`eche relying on some unique factorisation, we generalize work of Blomer, Br\"udern, and Salberger to prove Manin's conjecture in its strong form conjectured by Peyre for some infinite family of varieties of…

We formulate a tropical analogue of Grothendieck's section conjecture: that for every stable graph G of genus g>2, and every field k, the generic curve with reduction type G over k satisfies the section conjecture. We prove many cases of…

In a recent work, Keusch proved the so-called 1-2-3 Conjecture, raised by Karo\'nski, {\L}uczak, and Thomason in 2004: for every connected graph different from $K_2$, we can assign labels~$1,2,3$ to the edges so that no two adjacent…

Using the celebrated Morris Constant Term Identity, we deduce a recent conjecture of Chan, Robbins, and Yuen (math.CO/9810154), that asserts that the volume of a certain $n(n-1)/2$-dimensional polytope is given by the product of the first…

We prove some cases of the Zilber-Pink conjecture on unlikely intersections in Shimura varieties. Firstly, we prove that the Zilber-Pink conjecture holds for intersections between a curve and the union of the Hecke translates of a fixed…
