We formulate a tropical analogue of Grothendieck's section conjecture: that for every stable graph G of genus g>2, and every field k, the generic curve with reduction type G over k satisfies the section conjecture. We prove many cases of…

For any quadratic extension $L/K$ of number fields, we prove that there are infinitely many elliptic curves $E$ over $K$ so that the abelian groups $E(K)$ and $E(L)$ both have rank $1$. In particular, there are infinitely many elliptic…

In this note, we explore the notion of hyperbolicity of topologically finitely generated profinite groups. Some applications to diophantine geometry are suggested and we try to reformulate certain problems in diophantine geometry in terms…

We study a finite sequence of graphs, beginning with the curve graph and ending with a graph quasi-isometric to a tree. There is a Lipschitz map from one graph in the sequence to the next. This sequence was first introduced by Hamenst\"adt.…

Given a family of products of elliptic curves over a rational curve defined over a number field $K$, and assuming that there exists no isogeny between the pair of elliptic curves in the generic fiber, we establish an upper bound for the…

The aim of this paper is to study certain family of elliptic curves $\{\mathscr{X}_H\}_H$ defined over a number field $F$ arising from hyperplane sections of some cubic surface $\mathscr{X}/F$ associated to a cyclic cubic extension $K/F$.…

We give an algebraic and a geometric criterion for the existence of $G$-connections on $\mathbb{P}^{1}$ with prescribed irregular type with equal slope at $\infty$ (isoclinic) and with regular singularity of prescribed residue at $0$. The…

This is a translation of a research announcement by Anas G. Nasybullin from 1976, in which he states formulas for the p-primary part of the Tate-Shafarevich group of an elliptic curve in cyclotomic $\Z_p$-extensions of number fields.

We prove that any geometrically connected curve $X$ over a field $k$ is an algebraic $K(\pi,1)$, as soon as its geometric irreducible components have nonzero genus. This means that the cohomology of any locally constant constructible…

Let $S_g$ denote the closed orientable surface of genus $g$. We construct exponentially many mapping class group orbits of collections of $2g+1$ simple closed curves on $S_g$ which pairwise intersect exactly once, extending a result of the…

We prove finiteness results for sets of varieties over number fields with good reduction outside a given finite set of places using cyclic covers. We obtain a version of the Shafarevich conjecture for weighted projective surfaces, double…

Let $K$ be a field whose absolute Galois group is finitely generated. If $K$ neither finite nor of characteristic 2, then every hyperelliptic curve over $K$ with all of its Weierstrass points defined over $K$ has infinitely many $K$-points.…

Let k be a finite field of odd characteristic. We find a closed formula for the number of k-isomorphism classes of pointed, and non-pointed, hyperelliptic curves of genus g over k, admitting a Koblitz model. These numbers are expressed as a…

For a reduced projective scheme over the ring of integers of a number field, the set of places over which the fibres of the scheme are not reduced is a finite set. We give an explicit upper bound for the product of the norms of places in…

Between his arrival in Frankfurt in $1922$ and and his proof of his famous finiteness theorem for integral points in $1929$, Siegel had no publications. He did, however, write a letter to Mordell in $1926$ in which he explained a proof of…

For a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of characteristic $p\geq 5$ and $K=\mathbb{F}_q(t)$, we consider the family of elliptic curves $E_d$ over $K$ given by $y^2+xy - t^dy=x^3$ for all integers $d$ coprime to $q$. We provide an explicit…

It follows from the Grothendieck-Ogg-Shafarevich formula that the rank of an abelian variety (with trivial trace) defined over the function field of a curve is bounded by a quantity which depends on the genus of the base curve and on bad…

Let $B$ be a smooth projective curve of genus $g$, and $S \subset B$ be a finite subset of cardinality $s$. We give an effective upper bound on the number of deformation types of admissible families of canonically polarized manifolds of…

We generalize Siegel's theorem on integral points on affine curves to integral points of bounded degree, giving a complete characterization of affine curves with infinitely many integral points of degree d or less over some number field.…

We present a heuristic that suggests that ranks of elliptic curves over the rationals are bounded. In fact, it suggests that there are only finitely many elliptic curves of rank greater than 21. Our heuristic is based on modeling the ranks…
