We provide an alternative proof that the Chow group of $1$-cycles on a Severi--Brauer variety associated to a biquaternion division algebra is torsion-free. There are three proofs of this result in the literature, all of which are due to…

We propose a conjectural correspondence between the set of rigid indecomposable modules over the path algebras of acyclic quivers and the set of certain non-self-intersecting curves on Riemann surfaces, and prove the correspondence for the…

We compute the algebraic $K$-theory of some classes of surfaces defined over finite fields. We achieve this by first calculating the motivic cohomology groups and then studying the motivic Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence. In an…

The Frey--Mazur conjecture states that an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ is determined up to isogeny by its $p$-torsion Galois representation for $p\geq 17$. We study a geometric analog of this conjecture, and show that the map from…

In this paper we formulate some conjectures about algebraic flows on Shimura varieties. In the first part of the paper we prove the `logarithmic Ax-Lindemann theorem'. We then prove a result concerning the topological closure of the images…

Two number fields are said to be Brauer equivalent if there is an isomorphism between their Brauer groups that commutes with restriction. In this paper we prove a variety of number theoretic results about Brauer equivalent number fields…

We give a proof of Iitaka's Conjecture C_{2,1} using only elementary methods from algebraic geometry. The main point is that, given a non-isotrivial and relatively minimal family f : X \to B, where X is a surface and B is a curve, both…

The Akbari-Cameron-Khosrovshahi (ACK) conjecture, which appears to be unresolved, states that for any simple graph $G$ with at least one edge, there exists a nonzero {$\{0,1\}$}-vector in the row space of its adjacency matrix that is not a…

Katzarkov has proposed a generalization of Kontsevich's mirror symmetry conjecture, covering some varieties of general type. Seidel \cite{Se} has proved a version of this conjecture in the simplest case of the genus two curve. Basing on the…

Using metric techniques introduced by Berndtsson, we show a result on constancy of families dominated by a constant variety and, on the opposite side, a result on the strong non isotriviality of certain families of surfaces with positive…

For a quasi-projective smooth geometrically integral variety over a number field $k$, we prove that the iterated descent obstruction is equivalent to the descent obstruction. This generalizes a result of Skorobogatov, and this answers an…

The Ramanujan conjecture for modular forms of holomorphic type was proved by Deligne almost half a century ago: the proof, based on his earlier proof of Weil's conjectures, was an achievement of algebraic geometry. We give here a short…

In a recent talk of Robbert Fokkink, some conjectures related to the infinite Tribonacci word were stated by the speaker and the audience. In this note we show how to prove (or disprove) the claims easily in a "purely mechanical" fashion,…

We aim at giving a rigorous proof of the state-ments on the smoothness and the dimension of Severi varieties wherethere are gaps in the proofs in some standard literature. The method isa mixture of algebraic and analytic methods.

We give a reduction of the irregular case for the effective non-vanishing conjecture by virtue of the Fourier-Mukai transform. As a consequence, we reprove that the effective non-vanishing conjecture holds on algebraic surfaces.

First, we shall formulate and prove Theorem of Lie-Kolchin type for a cone and derive some algebro-geometric consequences. Next, inspired by a recent result of Dinh and Sibony we pose a conjecture of Tits type for a group of automorphisms…

We prove that the class of Brauer graph algebras coincides with the class of indecomposable idempotent algebras of biserial weighted surface algebras. These algebras are associated to triangulated surfaces with arbitrarily oriented…

We give a Poisson-geometric proof of the Kashiwara-Vergne conjecture for quadratic Lie algebras, based on the equivariant Moser trick.

We look at classes of semiassociative algebras, with an emphasis on those that canonically generalize associative (generalized) cyclic algebras, and at their behaviour in the semiassociative Brauer monoid defined by Blachar, Haile, Matzri,…

Recently continuous rational maps between real algebraic varieties have attracted the attention of several researchers. In this paper we continue the investigation of approximation properties of continuous rational maps with values in…
