We prove a $p$-converse theorem for elliptic curves $E/\mathbb{Q}$ with complex multiplication by the ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$ of an imaginary quadratic field $K$ in which $p$ is ramified. Namely, letting $r_p =…

We prove a boundedness-theorem for families of abelian varieties with real multiplication. More generally, we study curves in Hilbert modular varieties from the point of view of the Green Griffiths-Lang conjecture claiming that entire…

We prove the generalised Tate conjecture for H^3 of products of elliptic curves over finite fields, by slightly modifying an argument of M. Spiess concerning the Tate conjecture. We prove it fully if the elliptic curves run among at most 3…

The paper provides a computation of the additive structure as well as a partial description of the Chern-class module structure of the cohomology of $GL_3$ over the function ring of an elliptic curve over a finite field. The computation is…

The modularity of an elliptic curve $E/\mathbb Q$ can be expressed either as an analytic statement that the $L$-function is the Mellin transform of a modular form, or as a geometric statement that $E$ is a quotient of a modular curve…

We prove that two weakened forms of Green's conjectures for canonical curves are equivalent when the genus $g$ is odd.

We prove the $p$-parity conjecture for elliptic curves over global fields of characteristic $p > 3$. We also present partial results on the $\ell$-parity conjecture for primes $\ell \neq p$.

Since the curve $y^2 = x^6+1$ has a large automorphism group, there exist twist families arising from non-hyperelliptic directions. In this paper, we give an explicit upper bound on the average analytic rank of such a family, assuming the…

An elliptic divisibility sequence, generated by a point in the image of a rational isogeny, is shown to possess a uniformly bounded number of prime terms. This result applies over the rational numbers, assuming Lang's conjecture, and over…

Let $\mathsf{E}/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve. By the modularity theorem, it admits a surjection from a modular curve $X_0(N) \to \mathsf{E}$, and the minimal degree among such maps is called the modular degree of $\mathsf{E}$. By the…

The parity conjecture has a long and distinguished history. It gives a way of predicting the existence of points of infinite order on elliptic curves without having to construct them, and is responsible for a wide range of unexplained…

We prove Szpiro's conjecture for elliptic curves over the rationals having $j$-invariant with denominator of logarithmic size with respect to its numerator.

Elliptic curves play a natural and important role in elliptic cohomology. In earlier work with I. Kriz, thes elliptic curves were interpreted physically in two ways: as corresponding to the intersection of M2 and M5 in the context of (the…

We prove that the set of `low rank' points on sufficiently large fibre powers of families of curves are not Zariski dense. The recent work of Dimitrov-Gao-Habegger and K\"uhne (and Yuan) imply the existence of a bound which is exponential…

Given an elliptic curve $E$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, a celebrated conjecture of Goldfeld asserts that a positive proportion of its quadratic twists should have analytic rank 0 (resp. 1). We show this conjecture holds whenever $E$ has a rational…

We establish a precise correspondence between the ABC Conjecture and N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory. This is achieved by combining three ingredients: (i) Elkies' method of mapping ABC-triples to elliptic curves in his demonstration that ABC…

It is expected that Schanuel's Conjecture contains all ``reasonable" statements that can be made on the values of {\em the exponential function}. In particular it implies the Lindemann-Weierstrass Theorem and the Conjecture on algebraic…

The goal of this very short note is to give a new proof of Faber's formula for the socle intersection numbers in the tautological ring of $\mathcal{M}_g$. This new proof exhibits a new beautiful tautological relation that stems from the…

Let $Y$ be the complement of a plane quartic curve $D$ defined over a number field. Our main theorem confirms the Lang-Vojta conjecture for $Y$ when $D$ is a generic smooth quartic curve, by showing that its integral points are confined in…

We study Rubin's variant of the $p$-adic Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture for CM elliptic curves concerning certain special values of the Katz two-variable $p$-adic $L$-function that lie outside the range of $p$-adic interpolation.
