A family $f_t(z)$ of polynomials over a number field $K$ will be called \emph{weighted homogeneous} if and only if $f_t(z)=F(z^e, t)$ for some binary homogeneous form $F(X, Y)$ and some integer $e\geq 2$. For example, the family $z^d+t$ is…

In this paper, we prove that the number $B(p,g)$ of isomorphism classes of abelian varieties over a prime field $\mathbb{F}_p$ of dimension $g$ has a lower bound $p^{\frac{1}{2} g^2 (1+o(1))}$ as $g \rightarrow \infty$. This is the first…

Let $p$ be a prime number and $M$ the extension field of a $p$-adic field $K$ obtained by adjoining all $p$-power roots of all elements of $K$. In this paper, we show that there exists a constant $C$, depending only on $K$ and an integer…

We prove that the log canonical threshold of the base ideal of a complete linear system on a complex abelian variety is $\ge 1$, and equality holds if and only if the base locus has divisorial components. Consequently the same assertions…

Given smooth, projective, geometrically integral algebraic curves $X$ and $Y$ defined over a number field $K$, assuming that there is a non-constant $K$-morphism $\varphi \colon X \to Y$, we give an upper bound on the minimum of the degrees…

Let $\cac$ be a smooth projective curve defined over a number field $k$, $A/k(\cac)$ an abelian variety and $(\tau,B)$ the $k(\cac)/k$-trace of $A$. We estimate how the rank of $A(k(\cac))/\tau B(k)$ varies when we take a finite cover…

Let $p$ be an odd prime and $F_{\infty}$ a $p$-adic Lie extension of a number field $F$. Let $A$ be an abelian variety over $F$ which has ordinary reduction at every primes above $p$. Under various assumptions, we establish asymptotic upper…

Let $X$ be a projective variety over a number field $K$ endowed with a height function associated to an ample line bundle on $X$. Given an algebraic extension $F$ of $K$ with a sufficiently big Northcott number, we can show that there are…

We study lower bounds for the self-intersection of the canonical divisor of "canonical varieties" (i.e. varieties whose canonical linear system gives a birational map). We give some improvements for the known results in the case of surfaces…

Let $B(g,p)$ denote the number of isomorphism classes of $g$-dimensional abelian varieties over the finite field of size $p.$ Let $A(g,p)$ denote the number of isomorphism classes of principally polarized $g$ dimensional abelian varieties…

We give an upper bound on the dimension of the bounded derived category of an abelian category. We show that if $\CX$ is a sufficiently nice subcategory of an abelian category, then derived dimension of $\CA$ is at most $\CX$-dim$\CA$,…

We study the growth of the rank of elliptic curves and, more generally, Abelian varieties upon extensions of number fields. First, we show that if $L/K$ is a finite Galois extension of number fields such that $\Gal(L/K)$ does not have an…

We give a new proof of a slightly weaker form of a theorem of P. Colmez. This theorem gives a formula for the Faltings height of abelian varieties with complex multiplication by a C.M. field whose Galois group over $\bf Q$ is abelian; it…

We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for abelian varieties to acquire semistable reduction over fields of low degree. Our criteria are expressed in terms of torsion points of small order defined over unramified extensions.

We define a new canonical height pairing on the rational points of elliptic curves over global function fields which takes values in the multiplicative group of a completion of the function field. This height serves as an analogue of both…

In this paper we improve the upper bound of the number $N_{K, n}(X)$ of degree $n$ extensions of a number field $K$ with absolute discriminant bounded by $X$. This is achieved by giving a short $\mathcal{O}_K$-basis of an order of an…

We characterize property $(N_p)$ on a polarized surface $(X,L)$ with trivial canonical bundle in terms of the (non)existence of certain forbidden subvarieties of $X$.

Let (X,D) be a projective log pair over the ring of integers of a number field such that the log canonical line bundle K_(X,D) or its dual -K_(X,D) is relatively ample. We introduce a canonical height of K_(X,D) (and -K(X,D)) which is…

We obtain new results on the geometry of Hilbert modular varieties in positive characteristic and morphisms between them. Using these results and methods of rigid geometry, we develop a theory of canonical subgroups for abelian varieties…

We prove that for any two integers $g\geq 4$ and $g'\leq 2g-1$, there exist abelian varieties over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$ which are not quotients of a Jacobian of dimension $g'$. Our method in fact proves that most Abelian varieties…
