The goal of this survey is to describe some recent results concerning the L 2 extension of holomorphic sections or cohomology classes with values in vector bundles satisfying weak semi-positivity properties. The results presented here are…
We sharpen to nearly optimal the known asymptotic and explicit bounds for the number of $\mathbb{F}_q$-rational points on a geometrically irreducible hypersurface over a (large) finite field. The proof involves a Bertini-type probabilistic…
We show that for $k>1$ the number of genus $k$ minimal Lagrangians with area at most $A$ in a product of hyperbolic surfaces grows on the order of $A^{6(k-1)}$, with an explicit leading constant given in terms of the Mirzakhani function. We…
Assuming Lang's conjectured lower bound on the heights of non-torsion points on an elliptic curve, we show that there exists an absolute constant C such that for any elliptic curve E/Q and non-torsion point P in E(Q), there is at most one…
We prove that the holomorphic solutions of Picard-Fuchs differential equations associated with one-parameter families of abelian varieties with real multiplication admit power series expansions with $S$-integral coefficients at a maximal…
Pach showed that every $d+1$ sets of points $Q_1,\dotsc,Q_{d+1} \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ contain linearly-sized subsets $P_i\subset Q_i$ such that all the transversal simplices that they span intersect. We show, by means of an example, that a…
Let $K$ be a number field and $A/K$ be an abelian variety of dimension $g$. Assuming that the image $G_{\ell^\infty}$ of the natural Galois representation attached to the Tate module $T_\ell(A)$ is $\operatorname{GSp}_{2g}(\mathbb{Z}_\ell)$…
Przytycki has shown that the size $\mathcal{N}_{k}(S)$ of a maximal collection of simple closed curves that pairwise intersect at most $k$ times on a topological surface $S$ grows at most as a polynomial in $|\chi(S)|$ of degree…
Let $\mathcal C\subset(0,1]$ be a set satisfying the descending chain condition. We show that any accumulation point of volumes of log canonical surfaces $(X, B)$ with coefficients in $\mathcal C$ can be realized as the volume of a log…
We study the boundary behavior of the Kobayashi-Royden metric and the Kobayashi hyperbolicity of domains in Riemannian manifolds. As an application, we prove a Fatou type theorem on the existence, almost everywhere, of non tangential limits…
Conditionally on the Tate--Shafarevich and Bloch--Kato Conjectures, we give an explicit upper bound on the size of the $p$-adic Chabauty--Kim locus, and hence on the number of rational points, of a smooth projective curve $X/\mathbb{Q}$ of…
Using ideas from the geometry of compression, we improve on the current upper and lower bounds of the Heilbronn triangle problem. In particular, let $\Delta(s)$ denote the minimal area of the triangle induced by $s$ points on a unit disk.…
This paper contains two parts toward studying abelian varieties from the classification point of view. In a series of papers, the current authors and T.-C. Yang obtain explicit formulas for the numbers of superspecial abelian surfaces over…
Fix a number field $k$ and a rational prime $\ell$. We consider abelian varieties whose $\ell$-power torsion generates a pro-$\ell$ extension of $k(\mu_{\ell^\infty})$ which is unramified away from $\ell$. It is a necessary, but not…
From the generalized Riemann hypothesis for motivic L-functions, we derive an effective version of the Sato-Tate conjecture for an abelian variety A defined over a number field k with connected Sato-Tate group. By effective we mean that we…
Let $(M,g)$ be a smooth, compact Riemannian manifold and $\{\phi_h\}$ an $L^2$-normalized sequence of Laplace eigenfunctions, $-h^2\Delta_g\phi_h=\phi_h$. Given a smooth submanifold $H \subset M$ of codimension $k\geq 1$, we find conditions…
Let Mod(S) denote the mapping class group of a compact, orientable surface S. We prove that finitely generated subgroups of Mod(S) which are not virtually abelian have uniform exponential growth with minimal growth rate bounded below by a…
In this article we study the differences of two consecutive eigenvalues $\lambda_{i}-\lambda_{i-1}$ up to $i=2g-2$ for the Laplacian on hyperbolic surfaces of genus $g$, and show that the supremum of such spectral gaps over the moduli space…
We construct infinitely many abelian surfaces A defined over the rational numbers such that, for a prime ell <= 7, the ell-torsion subgroup of A is not isomorphic as a Galois module to the ell-torsion subgroup of its dual. We do this by…
The pointwise maximum of two independent and identically distributed isotropic fractional Brownian fields (with Hurst parameter $H<1/2$) is observed in a family of points in the unit square $\mathbf{C}=(-1/2,1/2]^{2}$. We assume that these…
