Let $\pi:(X,L)\rightarrow \mathbb D^*$ be the Fermat family of cubic curves in $\mathbb P^2$. For each $k\geq 1$, we construct a valuatively independent basis for $H^0(X,L^k)$. The construction uses a canonical cost function determined by a…

This is a survey on motivic zeta functions associated to abelian varieties and Calabi-Yau varieties over a discretely valued field. We explain how they are related to Denef and Loeser's motivic zeta function associated to a complex…

We propose a conceptual framework that leads to an abstract characterization for the exact solvability of Calabi-Yau varieties in terms of abelian varieties with complex multiplication. The abelian manifolds are derived from the cohomology…
