We give conditions under which the monodromy group of an $A$-hypergeometric system is invariant under modifications of the collection of characters $A$. The key ingredient is a Zariski--Lefschetz type theorem for principal $A$-determinants.

In this work, we consider a pair $(\textbf{X},0)$ and $(\textbf{Y},0)$ of hypersurfaces in $(\mathbb{C}^{n+1},0)$ parametrized by finitely determined, quasihomogeneous map germs $f$ and $g,$ respectively. Zariski asked whether the…

We study subvarieties of very general complete intersections $X\subset \mathbb{P}^n$ of multidegree $(d_1,\dots,d_c)$, when $d:= d_1+\dots +d_c$ is sufficiently large. In a seminal paper Ein proved that if $d\geq 2n-c-k+2$, any…

We give an abstract characterization of the Satake compactification of a general Drinfeld modular variety. We prove that it exists and is unique up to unique isomorphism, though we do not give an explicit stratification by Drinfeld modular…

We prove an equidistribution statement for the reduction of Galois orbits of CM points on the special fiber of a Shimura curve over a totally real field, considering both the split and the ramified case. The main novelty of the ramified…

The purpose of this note is to give a simple proof of the following theorem: Let $X$ be a normal projective variety over an algebraically closed field $k$, $\op{char} k = 0$ and let $D \subset X$ be a proper closed subvariety of $X$. Then…

Let D be a division algebra with center F. A maximal subfield of D is defined to be a field K such that CD(K) = K; that is, K is its own centralizer in D. A maximal subfield K is said to be self-invariant if it normalises by itself, i.e.…

Main Theorem: Spaces of r-branch point 3-cycle covers, degree n or Galois of degree n!/2 have one (resp. two) component(s) if r=n-1 (resp. r\ge n). Improves Fried-Serre on deciding when sphere covers with odd-order branching lift to…

We prove that in the backward orbit of a non-preperiodic point under the action of a Drinfeld module of generic characteristic there exist at most finitely many points S-integral with respect to another nonpreperiodic point. This provides…

We study $\mathscr{D}$-elliptic sheaves in terms of their associated modules, which we call Drinfeld-Stuhler modules. We prove some basic results about Drinfeld-Stuhler modules and their endomorphism rings, and then examine the existence…

This article is divided in two parts. In the first part we endow a certain ring of ``Drinfeld quasi-modular forms'' for $\GL_2(\FF_q[T])$ (where $q$ is a power of a prime) with a system of "divided derivatives" (or hyperderivations). This…

We give a generalization to higher dimensions of Silverman's result on finiteness of integer points in orbits. Assuming Vojta's conjecture, we prove a sufficient condition for morphisms on P^N so that (S,D)-integral points in each orbit are…

Compared with algebraic varieties the local monodromy of Drinfeld modules appears to be hopelessly complex: The image of the wild inertia subgroup under Tate module representations is infinite save for the case of potential good reduction.…

We introduce a qualitative conjecture, in the spirit of Campana, to the effect that certain subsets of rational points on a variety over a number field, or a Deligne-Mumford stack over a ring of S-integers, cannot be Zariski dense. The…

We study the main open parts of the Kawaguchi--Silverman Conjecture, asserting that for a birational self-map $f$ of a smooth projective variety $X$ defined over $\overline{\mathbb Q}$, the arithmetic degree $\alpha_f(x)$ exists and…

In this paper we develop a strategy and some technical tools for proving the Andre-Oort conjecture. We give lower bounds for the degrees of Galois orbits of geometric components of special subvarieties of Shimura varieties, assuming the…

Drinfeld in 2010 proved the companions conjecture for smooth varieties over a finite field, generalizing L. Lafforgue's result for smooth curves. We study the obstruction to prove the conjecture for arbitrary normal varieties. To do this,…

Given a surjective endomorphism $f: X \to X$ on a projective variety over a number field, one can define the arithmetic degree $\alpha_f(x)$ of $f$ at a point $x$ in $X$. The Kawaguchi - Silverman Conjecture (KSC) predicts that any forward…

We show that the strategy of point counting in o-minimal structures can be applied to various problems on unlikely intersections that go beyond the conjectures of Manin-Mumford and Andr\'e-Oort. We verify the so-called Zilber-Pink…

Let $\varphi: \mathbb{P}^{n}_{F} \to \mathbb{P}^{n}_{F}$ where $F$ is a complete valued field. If $x$ is a fixed point, such that the action of $\varphi$ on $T_{x}$ has eigenvalues $\lambda_{1}, \ldots, \lambda_{n}$, with $\lambda_{1},…
