Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ and, for a prime $p$ of good reduction for $E$ let $\tilde{E}_p$ denote the reduction of $E$ modulo $p$. Inspired by an elliptic curve analogue of Artin's primitive root conjecture…

Let $S_{g,n}$ be a surface of genus $g $ with $n$ marked points. Let $X$ be a complete hyperbolic metric on $S_{g,n}$ with $n$ cusps. Every isotopy class $[\gamma]$ of a closed curve $\gamma \in \pi_{1}(S_{g,n})$ contains a unique closed…

In this paper we construct certain higher Chow cycles in the $K_{1}$ of the Jacobian of Fermat curves, generalising a construction of Collino. We further compute the regulator of these elements in terms of special values of hypergeometric…

We obtain the trace map image of the values of certain harmonic volumes for some quotients of Fermat curves. This provides the algorithm that the algebraic cycles called by the k-th Ceresa cycles are not algebraically equivalent to zero in…

Let $p$ be a prime number such that the modular curve $X_0(p)$ has genus at least two. We show that the only points of the reduction mod $p$ of $X_0(p)$ with image in the reduction mod $p$ of $J_0(p)$ in the cuspidal group are the two…

The notion of constant cycle curves on K3 surfaces is introduced. These are curves that do not contribute to the Chow group of the ambient K3 surface. Rational curves are the most prominent examples. We show that constant cycle curves…

Let $(X,L)$ be a polarized K3 surface of genus $g$ and $C_{en} \subset X$ be the curve of singular points of nodal elliptic curves in $|L|$. When $(X,L)$ is generic of genus two, Huybrechts observed that the curve $C_{en}$ is a constant…

Let $\mathcal{G}$ be the projective plane curve defined over $\mathbb{F}_q$ given by $$aX^nY^n-X^nZ^n-Y^nZ^n+bZ^{2n}=0,$$ where $ab\notin\{0,1\}$, and for each $s\in\{2,\ldots,n-1\}$, let $\mathcal{D}_s^{P_1,P_2}$ be the base-point-free…

We study special cycles on a Shimura variety of orthogonal type over a totally real field of degree $d$ associated with a quadratic form in $n+2$ variables whose signature is $(n,2)$ at $e$ real places and $(n+2,0)$ at the remaining $d-e$…

Let $p\geq5$ be a prime number and let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field where $p$ is unramified. Under mild technical assumptions, in this paper we prove the non-existence of non-trivial finite $\Lambda$-submodules of Pontryagin duals of…

We study the Beilinson-Bloch heights of Ceresa and Gross-Schoen cycles in families. We construct that for any $g\ge 3$, a Zariski open dense subset $\mathcal{M}_g^{\mathrm{amp}}$ of $\mathcal{M}_g$, the coarse moduli of curves of genus $g$…

We define a new algebraic invariant of a graph $G$ called the Ceresa-Zharkov class and show that it is trivial if and only if $G$ is of hyperelliptic type, equivalently, $G$ does not have as a minor the complete graph on 4 vertices or the…

The order of a constant cycle curve $C \subset X$ on a K3 surface, defined by Huybrechts, is a positive integer that measures the obstruction to decomposing the diagonal class $\Delta_C$ in the Chow group $\mathrm{CH}^2(X \times C)$. In…

Stark-Heegner points are conjectural substitutes for Heegner points when the imaginary quadratic field of the theory of complex multiplication is replaced by a real quadratic field $K$. They are constructed analytically as local points on…

Let $A$ be an abelian surface over an algebraically closed field $\overline{k}$ with an embedding $\overline{k}\hookrightarrow\mathbb{C}$. When $A$ is isogenous to a product of elliptic curves, we describe a large collection of pairwise…

A nonpolycyclic nilpotent-by-cyclic group Gamma can be expressed as the HNN extension of a finitely-generated nilpotent group N. The first main result is that quasi-isometric nilpotent-by-cyclic groups are HNN extensions of quasi-isometric…

This paper deals with a family of spatial rational curves that were introduced by Andradas, Recio and Sendra, under the name of hypercircles, as an algorithmic cornerstone tool in the context of improving the rational parametrization…

The variety of all smooth hypersurfaces of given degree and dimension has the Fermat hypersurface as a natural base point. In order to study the period map for such varieties, we first determine the integral polarized Hodge structure of the…

In this article we use a theorem of Carlson and Griffiths and compute periods of linear algebraic cycles inside the Fermat variety of even dimension $n$ and degree $d$. As an application, for examples of $n$ and $d$ we prove that the locus…
