Let d1 and d2 be discriminants of distinct quadratic imaginary orders O_d1 and O_d2 and let J(d1,d2) denote the product of differences of CM j-invariants with discriminants d1 and d2. In 1985, Gross and Zagier gave an elegant formula for…
A section K on a genus g canonical curve C is identified as the key tool to prove new results on the geometry of the singular locus Theta_s of the theta divisor. The K divisor is characterized by the condition of linear dependence of a set…
In this note, we give a new proof of Voisin's theorem on Green's conjecture for generic curves of odd genus resembling the first two sections of "Universal Secant Bundles and Syzygies of Canonical Curves" by the author, and so avoiding the…
Xue proved an equational refinement of the unitary Shimura curve case of the arithmetic Gan-Gross-Prasad conjecture via the Gross-Zagier formula for quaternionic Shimura curves. On the other hand, Rapoport, Smithling and Zhang posed a…
We study the group of automorphisms of Shimura curves $X_0(D, N)$ attached to an Eichler order of square-free level $N$ in an indefinite rational quaternion algebra of discriminant $D>1$. We prove that, when the genus $g$ of the curve is…
Let $C$ be a curve over a non-archimedean local field of characteristic zero. We formulate algebro-geometric statements that imply boundedness of functions on the moduli space of stable bundles of rank $2$ and fixed odd degree determinant…
Oort has conjectured that there do not exist Shimura curves contained generically in the Torelli locus of genus-$g$ curves when $g$ is large enough. In this paper we prove the Oort conjecture for Shimura curves of Mumford type and Shimura…
This note outlines an approach to defining $p$-adic Shimura classes and $p$-adic derived Hecke operators on the completed cohomology of modular curves from upcoming work by the author. After reviewing the modulo-$p$ constructions of Harris…
Motivic and topological zeta functions are singularity invariants, mainly associated to a function $f$ and a top differential form $\omega$ on a smooth variety. When $\omega$ is the standard form $dx_1\wedge \dots \wedge dx_n$ on affine…
The purpose of this paper is to show how the generic vanishing theorems of M. Green and the second author can be used to settle several questions and conjectures concerning the geometry of irregular complex projective varieties. First, we…
Let f be a modular form of weight k>=2 and level N, let K be a quadratic imaginary field, and assume that there is a prime p exactly dividing N. Under certain arithmetic conditions on the level and the field K, one can attach to this data a…
We give two distinct proofs of the Gross-Zagier formula in terms of sums of automorphic Green's functions realized as regularized theta lifts, including one involving arithmetic Hirzebruch-Zagier divisors on the Hilbert modular surface…
We study the modularity of the generating series of special cycles on unitary Shimura varieties over CM-fields of degree $2d$ associated with a Hermitian form in $n+1$ variables whose signature is $(n,1)$ at $e$ real places and $(n+1,0)$ at…
The main goal of this article is to give an explicit rigid analytic uniformization of the maximal toric quotient of the Jacobian of a Shimura curve over the field of rational numbers at a prime dividing exactly the level. This result can be…
Gross and Zagier proved a formula for the absolute norm N(j(\alpha_1) - j(\alpha_2)) of a difference of singular values of the modular function j. We formulate and prove the analogues of their result for a number of functions of level 2 and…
In this paper, we prove an averaged version of an algebraicity conjecture in \cite{GKZ87} concerning the values of higher Green's function at CM points. Furthermore, we give the factorization of the ideal generated by such algebraic value…
We prove an equidistribution statement for the reduction of Galois orbits of CM points on the special fiber of a Shimura curve over a totally real field, considering both the split and the ramified case. The main novelty of the ramified…
A theorem by Mumford implies that every automorphic line bundle on a pure open Shimura variety, equipped with an invariant smooth metric, can be uniquely extended as a line bundle on a toroidal compactification of the variety, in such a way…
Fix a prime number $p$ and let $E/F$ be a CM extension of number fields in which $p$ splits relatively. Let $\pi$ be an automorphic representation of a quasi-split unitary group of even rank with respect to $E/F$ such that $\pi$ is ordinary…
This paper is about the Iwasawa theory of elliptic curves over the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension $\mathbb{Q}^{\text{cyc}}$ of $\mathbb{Q}$. We discuss a deep conjecture of Greenberg that if $E/\mathbb{Q}$ is an elliptic curve with…
