Related papers: A note on the Manin-Mumford conjecture

The Manin-Mumford conjecture in characteristic zero was first proved by Raynaud. Later, Hrushovski gave a different proof using model theory. His main result from model theory, when applied to abelian varieties, can be rephrased in terms of…

The purpose of this short note is to present a simplified proof of Serre's modularity conjecture using the strong modularity lifting results currently available. This second version includes extra details on definitions and proofs than the…

We give a short proof of the "prime-to-$p$ version" of the Manin-Mumford conjecture for an abelian variety over a number field, when it has supersingular reduction at a prime dividing $p$, by combining the methods of Bogomolov, Hrushovski,…

We give a proof of the Zilber--Pink conjecture for $n$-fold self-products of a curve $X$ inside the self-product of its Jacobian, when $X$ has appropriate bad reduction, its Jacobian has no extra endomorphisms, and $n$ is sufficiently…

We prove the Relative Manin-Mumford Conjecture for families of abelian varieties in characteristic 0. We follow the Pila-Zannier method to study special point problems, and we use the Betti map which goes back to work of Masser and Zannier…

In his paper on the Mordell-Lang conjecture, Hrushovski employed techniques from model theory to prove the function field version of the conjecture. In doing so he was able to answer a related question of Voloch, which we refer to…

The purpose of this simple note is to provide elementary model-theoretic proofs to some existing results on sumset phenomena and IP sets, motivated by Hrushovski's work on the stabilizer theorem.

In this survey paper we present recent results obtained by Khare, Wintenberger and the author that have led to a proof of Serre's conjecture, such as existence of compatible families, modular upper bounds for universal deformation rings and…

We prove here some supplementary statements that appeared without proof in I. Panin, A. Stavrova, N. Vavilov, On Grothendieck--Serre's conjecture concerning principal $G$-bundles over reductive group schemes:I, arXiv:0905.1418

We compare the Manin-type conjecture for Campana points recently formulated by Pieropan, Smeets, Tanimoto and V\'{a}rilly-Alvarado with an alternative prediction of Browning and Van Valckenborgh in the special case of the orbifold…

We obtain a refinement of Manin-Mumford (Raynaud's Theorem) for abelian schemes over some ring of integers. Torsion points are replaced by special 0-cycles, that is reductions modulo some, possibly varying, prime of Galois orbits of torsion…

A conjecture of Mumford predicts a complete set of relations between the generators of the cohomology ring of the moduli space of rank 2 semi-stable sheaves with fixed odd degree determinant on a smooth, projective curve of genus at least…

We describe here some recent progress pertaining to the Serre Intersection Multiplicity Conjecture. In particular, we show that if A is an unramified regular local ring, then just as in the equicharacteristic case, the intersection…

In this short note I restate and simplify the proof of the impossibility of probabilistic induction from Popper (1992). Other proofs are possible (cf. Popper (1985)).

We present an information theoretic proof of the nonsignalling multiprover parallel repetition theorem, a recent extension of its two-prover variant that underlies many hardness of approximation results. The original proofs used de Finetti…

These are some notes on the two Milnor conjectures and their proofs (due to Voevodsky, Orlov-Vishik-Voevodsky, and Morel).

Using recent work of the first author~\cite{Bet}, we prove a strong version of the Manin-Peyre's conjectures with a full asymptotic and a power-saving error term for the two varieties respectively in $\mathbb{P}^2 \times \mathbb{P}^2$ with…

A subgraph of an edge-coloured graph is called rainbow if all its edges have distinct colours. The study of rainbow subgraphs goes back to the work of Euler on Latin squares and has been the focus of extensive research ever since. Many…

The aim of this work is to present a possible adaptation of the Manin-Mumford conjecture to the $T-$modules, a mathematical object which has been introduced in the 1980's by G. Anderson as the natural analogue of the abelian varieties in…

In this note, we give a proof for a variant of the functorial Deligne-Riemann-Roch theorem in positive characteristic based on ideas appearing in Pink and R\"ossler's proof of the Adams-Riemann-Roch theorem in positive characteristic (see…
