A new $(1,1)$-dimensional super vector bundle which exists on any super Riemann surface is described. Cross-sections of this bundle provide a new class of fields on a super Riemann surface which closely resemble holomorphic functions on a…

We report on progress in the qualitative study of rational points on rationally connected varieties over number fields, also examining integral points, zero-cycles, and non-rationally connected varieties. One of the main objectives is to…

We discuss criteria for the nonexistence, existence and computation of invariant algebraic surfaces for three-dimensional complex polynomial vector fields, thus transferring a classical problem of Poincar\'e from dimension two to dimension…

In this paper, we consider real and complex algebras as well as algebras over general fields. In Section 2, we revisit and prove several results on (quadratic) algebras over general fields. As an example, we demonstrate that a quadratic…

In this note we show that any basic abelian variety with additional structures over an arbitrary algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$ is isogenous to another one defined over a finite field. We also show that the category of…

M. Amer and A. Brumer have shown that, for two homogeneous quadratic polynomials f and g in at least 3 variables over a field k of characteristic different from 2, the locus f=g=0 has non-trivial solution over k if and only if, for a…

We describe the Griffiths group of the product of a curve $C$ and a surface $S$ as a quotient of the Albanese kernel of $S$ over the function field of $C$. When $C$ is a hyperplane section of $S$ varying in a Lefschetz pencil, we prove the…

In this paper we prove a finiteness result concerning the Chow group of zero-cycles for varieties over $p$-adic local fields. In this final version, there are several corrections concerning mathematical symbols and reference to related…

Scale-free percolation is a percolation model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ which can be used to model real-world networks. We prove bounds for the graph distance in the regime where vertices have infinite degrees. We fully characterize transience vs.…

B. Poonen recently produced smooth threefolds over a number field which do not have a rational point but have no Brauer-Manin obstruction even after descent to a finite 'etale cover. In this note I show that the varieties he produces have…

We study unirationality of a Del Pezzo surface of degree two over a given (non algebraically closed) field, under the assumption that it admits at least one rational double point over an algebraic closure of the base field. As corollaries…

In this paper we present a unified proof of the fact that the category of modules over a ring and the category of near-vector spaces in the sense of J. Andr\'e, over an appropriate scalar system (a 'scalar group'), are both abelian…

In this short note we extend some results obtained in \cite{Gazaki2015}. First, we prove that for an abelian variety $A$ with good ordinary reduction over a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with $p$ an odd prime, the Albanese kernel of…

Consider an external product of a higher cycle and a usual cycle which is algebraically equivalent to zero. Assume there exists an algebraically closed subfield k such that the higher cycle and its ambient variety are defined over k, but…

We prove that the the kernel of the reciprocity map for a product of curves over a $p$-adic field with split semi-stable reduction is divisible. We also consider the $K_1$ of a product of curves over a number field.

Several researchers have recently established that for every Turing degree $\boldsymbol{c}$, the real closed field of all $\boldsymbol{c}$-computable real numbers has spectrum $\{\boldsymbol{d}~:~\boldsymbol{d}'\geq\boldsymbol{c}"\}$. We…

For a proper subfield $K$ of $\QQ$ we show the existence of an algebraic number $\alpha$ such that no power $\alpha^n$, $n\geq 1$, lies in $K$. As an application it is shown that these numbers, multiplied by convenient Gaussian numbers, can…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic different from 2. Let $G$ be a simply connected or adjoint semisimple algebraic $k$-group which does not contain a simple factor of type $E_8$ and such that every exceptional simple factor of type other…

In the past the first named author has studied to what extent the integral trace can characterize a number field beyond what the discriminant does. The cases of cyclic number fields and non-totally real fields are more or less settled,…

This note is about an old conjecture of Voisin, which concerns zero--cycles on the self-product of surfaces of geometric genus one. We prove this conjecture for surfaces with $p_g=1$ and $q=2$.
