We develop a theory of vector-valued heights and intersections defined relative to finitely generated extensions K/k. These generalize both number field and geometric heights. When k is Q or F_p, or when a non-isotriviality condition holds,…

A function that is analytic on a domain of $\mathbb{C}^n$ is holonomic if it is the solution to a holonomic system of linear homogeneous differential equations with polynomial coefficients. We define and study the Bernstein-Sato polynomial…

We fix a monic polynomial $f(x) \in \mathbb F_q[x]$ over a finite field of characteristic $p$ of degree relatively prime to $p$. Let $a\mapsto \omega(a)$ be the Teichm\"uller lift of $\mathbb F_q$, and let $\chi:\mathbb{Z}\to \mathbb…

We compute the canonical form of the cosmological polytope for any graph in terms of the dual of the shifted cosmological polytope in two different ways. On the way, we provide an explicit coordinate description of the dual of the…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety defined over a number field $K$ and let $\varphi: X \to X$ a polarized endomorphism of degree $d \geq 2$. Let $\widehat{h}_{\varphi}$ be the canonical height associated to $\varphi$ on…

A hypergeometric type equation satisfying certain conditions defines either a finite or an infinite system of orthogonal polynomials. We present in a unified and explicit way all these systems of orthogonal polynomials, the associated…

Let $f(x_1,...,x_k)$ be a polynomial over a field $K$. This paper considers such questions as the enumeration of the number of nonzero coefficients of $f$ or of the number of coefficients equal to $\alpha\in K^*$. For instance, if $K=\ff_q$…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ denote the class of normalized analytic functions $f$ in the open unit disk defined as $ \mathbb{D}:=\{z\in\mathbb{C}:|z|<1\} $ with $f(0)=0$ and $f'(0)=1$. A function $f\in\mathcal{A}$ is said to be starlike if…

The 3+1 (canonical) decomposition of all geometries admitting two-dimensional space-like surfaces is exhibited. A proposal consisting of a specific re-normalization {\bf Assumption} and an accompanying {\bf Requirement} is put forward,…

In this article we study definable functions in tame expansions of algebraically closed valued fields. For a given definable function we have two types of results: of type (I), which hold at a neighborhood of infinity, and of type (II),…

We present bounds for the degree and the height of the polynomials arising in some central problems in effective algebraic geometry including the implicitation of rational maps and the effective Nullstellensatz over a variety. Our treatment…

Let $\mathbb{K}$ be an uncountable field of characteristic zero and let $f$ be a function from $\mathbb{K}^n$ to $\mathbb{K}$. We show that if the restriction of $f$ to every affine plane $L\subset\mathbb{K}^n$ is regular, then $f$ is a…

A rational function of degree at least two with coefficients in an algebraically closed field is post-critically finite (PCF) if all of its critical points have finite forward orbit under iteration. We show that the collection of PCF…

We prove that, for a K3 surface in characteristic p > 2, the automorphism group acts on the nef cone with a rational polyhedral fundamental domain and on the nodal classes with finitely many orbits. As a consequence, for any non-negative…

Let $\mathbb{F}\subset \mathbb{K}$ be fields with characteristic zero, $n$ be a positive integer and $\kappa\in \mathbb{K}$. In this paper, we determine those monomials $f\colon \mathbb{F}\to \mathbb{K}$ of degree $n$ for which \[ f(x^{2})=…

In this work, we study the simplest example of the landscape of conformal field theories: one-dimensional CFTs with finite-dimensional state space. Following the definition of quantum field theory given by G. Segal, we formulate the…

In this brief note, we will investigate the number of points of bounded (twisted) height in a projective variety defined over a function field, where the function field comes from a projective variety of dimension greater than or equal to…

Canonical heights and Arakelov geometry on semi-abelian varieties. In this paper, we propose a construction of the canonical heights on an extension of an abelian variety by the multiplicative group, in the framework of Arakelov geometry.…

This paper is devoted to the study of unparameterized simple curves in the plane. We propose diverse canonical parameterizations of a 2D-curve. For instance, the arc-length parameterization is canonical, but we consider other natural…

We prove the existence of resolution of singularities for arbitrary (not necessarily reduced or irreducible) excellent two-dimensional schemes, via permissible blow-ups. The resolution is canonical, and functorial with respect to…
