We test numerically the refined Manin's conjecture about the asymptotics of points of bounded height on Fano varieties for some diagonal cubic surfaces.
We introduce the split torsor method to count rational points of bounded height on Fano varieties. As an application, we prove Manin's conjecture for all nonsplit quartic del Pezzo surfaces of type $\mathbf A_3+\mathbf A_1$ over arbitrary…
A conjecture of Manin predicts the asymptotic distribution of rational points of bounded height on Fano varieties. In this paper we use conic bundles to obtain correct lower bounds or a wide class of surfaces over number fields for which…
We investigate in a statistical fashion the smallest height of a rational point on a Fano hypersurface defined over the field of rational numbers. Along the way, we establish an average version of Manin's conjecture about the number of…
In our previous work we conjectured - inspired by an algebro-geometric result of Fujita - that the height of an arithmetic Fano variety X of relative dimension $n$ is maximal when X is the projective space $\mathbb{P}^n_{\mathbb{Z}}$ over…
We establish an asymptotic formula for the number of $\mathcal{M}$-points of bounded height on split toric varieties, for the height induced by any big and nef divisor class. This formula establishes new cases of the extension of Manin's…
Motivated by the study of Fano type varieties we define a new class of log pairs that we call asymptotically log Fano varieties and strongly asymptotically log Fano varieties. We study their properties in dimension two under an additional…
We prove Manin's conjecture for split smooth quintic del Pezzo surfaces over arbitrary number fields with respect to fairly general anticanonical height functions. After passing to universal torsors, we first show that we may restrict the…
A conjecture of Manin predicts the distribution of rational points on Fano varieties. We provide a framework for proofs of Manin's conjecture for del Pezzo surfaces over imaginary quadratic fields, using universal torsors. Some of our tools…
We formulate a conjecture on the number of integral points of bounded height on log Fano varieties in analogy with Manin's conjecture on the number of rational points of bounded height on Fano varieties. We also give a prediction for the…
We show that Fano lattice polygons define a class of balanced quivers with interesting properties. The combinatorics of these quivers is related to singularities of the underlying toric Fano surface. This allows us to show that every Fano…
Manin's conjecture predicts the distribution of rational points on Fano varieties. Using explicit parameterizations of rational points by integral points on universal torsors and lattice-point-counting techniques, it was proved for several…
We complete the study of points of bounded height on irreducible non-normal cubic surfaces by doing the point count on the cubic surface $W$ given by $t_0^2 t_2 = t_1^2 t_3$ over any number field. We show that the order of growth agrees…
We consider the problem of counting the number of rational points on the family of Kummer surfaces associated with two non-isogenous elliptic curves. For this two-parameter family we prove Manin's unity, using the presentation of the Kummer…
An asymptotic formula is established for the number of rational points of bounded height on a non-singular quartic del Pezzo surface with a conic bundle structure.
We initiate a general quantitative study of sets of $\mathcal{M}$-points, which are special subsets of rational points, generalizing Campana points, Darmon points, and squarefree solutions of Diophantine equations. We propose an asymptotic…
We study Fano varieties endowed with a faithful action of a symmetric group, as well as analogous results for Calabi--Yau varieties, and log terminal singularities. We show the existence of a constant $m(n)$, so that every symmetric group…
We study rational points on the elliptic surface given by the equation: $$y^2 = x^3 + AxQ(u,v)^2 + BQ(u,v)^3,$$ where $A,B\in \mathbb{Z}$ satisfy that $4A^3-27B^2\neq 0$ and $Q(u,v)$ is a positive-definite quadratic form. We prove…
We give an asymptotic formula for the number of weak Campana points of bounded height on a family of orbifolds associated to norm forms for Galois extensions of number fields. From this formula we derive an asymptotic for the number of…
In this note, we establish an asymptotic formula for the number of rational points of bounded height on the singular cubic surface $$ x_0(x_1^2 + x_2^2)=x_3^3 $$ with a power-saving error term, which verifies the Manin-Peyre conjectures for…
