We apply Christ's method of refinements to the $\ell^p$-improving problem for discrete averages $\mathcal{A}_N$ along polynomial curves in $\mathbb{Z}^d$. Combined with certain elementary estimates for the number of solutions to certain…

We establish the $L^p(\mathbb{R}^3)$ boundedness of the helical maximal function for the sharp range $p>3$. Our results improve the previous known bounds for $p>4$. The key ingredient is a new microlocal smoothing estimate for averages…

Let $M$ be the maximal operator associated to a smooth curve in $\mathbb R^3$ which has nonvanishing curvature and torsion. We prove that $M$ is bounded on $L^p$ if and only if $p>3$.

We study $L^p$-Sobolev improving for averaging operators $A_{\gamma}$ given by convolution with a compactly supported smooth density $\mu_{\gamma}$ on a non-degenerate curve. In particular, in 4 dimensions we show that $A_{\gamma}$ maps…

We study the \Q_p-unipotent Albanese map for curves over local fields with residue characteristic different from p and show that it has finite image. As a corollary, we deduce a simple `pi_1'-proof of Siegel's theorem for rank 1 elliptic…

In this paper we give local conditions to the existence of Abel maps for nodal curves that are limits of Abel maps for smooth curves. We use this result to construct Abel maps for any degree for nodal curves with two components.

We establish $L^p-L^q$ estimates for averaging operators associated to mixed homogeneous polynomial hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$. These are described in terms of the mixed homogeneity and the order of vanishing of the polynomial…

We consider a general class of sharp $L^p$ Hardy inequalities in $\R^N$ involving distance from a surface of general codimension $1\leq k\leq N$. We show that we can succesively improve them by adding to the right hand side a lower order…

We prove upper bounds on the $L^p$ norms of eigenfunctions of the discrete Laplacian on regular graphs. We then apply these ideas to study the $L^p$ norms of joint eigenfunctions of the Laplacian and an averaging operator over a finite…

In this paper, optimal $L^p-L^q$ estimates are obtained for operators which average functions over polynomial submanifolds, generalizing the $k$-plane transform. An important advance over previous work is that full $L^p-L^q$ estimates are…

Given an elliptic curve $E$ and a positive integer $N$, we consider the problem of counting the number of primes $p$ for which the reduction of $E$ modulo $p$ possesses exactly $N$ points over $\mathbb F_p$. On average (over a family of…

We investigate geometric properties of surfaces given by certain formulae. In particular, we calculate the singular curvature and the limiting normal curvature of such surfaces along the set of singular points consisting of singular points…

We give bounds for exponential sums over curves defined over Galois rings. We first define summation subsets as the images of lifts of points from affine opens of the reduced curve, and we give bounds for the degrees of their coordinate…

We extend the map Exp for elliptic curves in short Weierstrass form over $ \mathbb{C} $ to Edwards curves over local fields. Subsequently, we compute the map Exp for Edwards curves over the local field $ \mathbb{Q}_{p} $ of $ p $-adic…

We initiate the theory of $\ell^p$-improving inequalities for arithmetic averages over hypersurfaces and their maximal functions. In particular, we prove $\ell^p$-improving estimates for the discrete spherical averages and some of their…

I prove new subcritical bounds for the $\ell^p$-improving problem along restricted subsets of a degenerate curve. The key input is a new paucity estimate for associated inhomogeneous equations which is proven using an elimination method due…

We prove that convolution with affine arclength measure on the curve parametrized by $h(t) := (t,t^2,...,t^n)$ is a bounded operator from $L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)$ to $L^q(\mathbb{R}^n)$ for the full conjectured range of exponents, improving on a…

In a previous work of the authors, a result to algorithmically compute the topology types of the level curves of an algebraic surface, is given. From this result, here we derive applications based on level curves to determine some…

We study the elliptic maximal functions defined by averages over ellipses and rotated ellipses which are multi-parametric variants of the circular maximal function. We prove that those maximal functions are bounded on $L^p$ for some $p\neq…

We prove $q$-variation estimates, $q>2$, on $\ell^{p}$ spaces for averages along primes (with $1<p<\infty$) and polynomials (with $\big| \frac1p - \frac12 \big| < \frac{1}{2(d+1)}$, where $d$ is the degree of the polynomial). This improves…
