We discuss the Euclidean limit of hyperbolic SU(2)-monopoles, framed at infinity, from the point of view of pluricomplex geometry. More generally, we discuss the geometry of hypercomplex manifolds arising as limits of pluricomplex…

Combining $2$-descent techniques with Riemann-Roch and B\'ezout's theorems, we give an upper bound on the number of rational points of bounded height on elliptic and hyperelliptic curves over function fields of characteristic $\neq 2$. We…

In this paper we classify curves of genus two over a perfect field k of characteristic two. We find rational models of curves with a given arithmetic structure for the ramification divisor and we give necessary and sufficient conditions for…

We derive a priori second order estimates for solutions of a class of fully nonlinear elliptic equations on Riemannian manifolds under some very general structure conditions. We treat both equations on closed manifolds, and the Dirichlet…

Classical modular curves are of deep interest in arithmetic geometry. In this survey we show how the work of Fumiyuki Momose is involved in order to list the classical modular curves which satisfy that the set of quadratic points over…

Let $C_1, \dots, C_n$ denote the $1/n-$neighborhood of $n$ great circles on $\mathbb{S}^2$. We are interested in how much these areas have to overlap and prove the sharp bounds $$ \sum_{i, j = 1 \atop i \neq j}^{n}{|C_i \cap C_j|^s}…

We give explicit numerical estimates for the generalized Chebyshev functions. Explicit results of this kind are useful for estimating of computational complexity of algorithms which generates special primes. Such primes are needed to…

We revisit a recent bound of I. Shparlinski and T. P. Zhang on bilinear forms with Kloosterman sums, and prove an extension for correlation sums of Kloosterman sums against Fourier coefficients of modular forms. We use these bounds to…

This paper goes beyond Katz-Sarnak theory on the distribution of curves over finite fields according to their number of rational points, theoretically, experimentally and conjecturally. In particular, we give a formula for the limits of the…

Let $K$ be a discretely valued Henselian field. Creutz and Viray show that the degree set of a curve $C$ over a $p$-adic field can miss infinitely many multiples of the index of $C$, a phenomenon that cannot occur over finitely generated…

Consider the smooth projective models C of curves y^2=f(x) with f(x) in Z[x] monic and separable of degree 2g+1. We prove that for g >= 3, a positive fraction of these have only one rational point, the point at infinity. We prove a lower…

We present seven theorems on the structure of prime order torsion points on CM elliptic curves defined over number fields. The first three results refine bounds of Silverberg and Prasad-Yogananda by taking into account the class number of…

A formula of Kuznetsov allows one to interpret a smooth sum of Kloosterman sums as a sum over the spectrum of $GL(2)$ automorphic forms. In this paper, we construct a similar formula for the first hyper-Kloosterman sums using $GL(3)$…

Under ABC, Silverman showed that there are infinitely many non-Wieferich primes with respect to any (non-trivial) base $a$. Recently Srinivas and Subramani proved an analogous result over number fields with trivial class group. In the first…

For the hyperelliptic curve C_p with equation y^2=x(x-2p)(x-p)(x+p)(x+2p) with p a prime number, we discuss bounds for the rank of its Jacobian over Q, find many cases having 2-torsion in the associated Shafarevich-Tate group, and we…

We investigate exponential sums over singular binary quartic forms, proving an explicit formula for the finite field Fourier transform of this set. Our formula shares much in common with analogous formulas proved previously for other vector…

We complete the solution of the relative class number one problem for function fields of curves over finite fields. Using work from two earlier papers, this reduces to finding all function fields of genus 6 or 7 over $\mathbb{F}_2$ with one…

Let $p \geq 5$ be a prime and for $a, b \in \mathbb{F}_{p}$, let $E_{a,b}$ denote the elliptic curve over $\mathbb{F}_{p}$ with equation $y^2=x^3+a\,x + b$. As usual define the trace of Frobenius $a_{p,\,a,\,b}$ by \begin{equation*}…

Let M_2 be the moduli space that classifies genus 2 curves. If a curve C is defined over a field k, the corresponding moduli point P=[C] is defined over k. Mestre solved the converse problem for curves with Aut(C) isomorphic to C_2. Given a…
