We introduce an algorithm that can be used to compute the canonical height of a point on an elliptic curve over the rationals in quasi-linear time. As in most previous algorithms, we decompose the difference between the canonical and the…
We develop an explicit theory of Kummer varieties associated to Jacobians of hyperelliptic curves of genus 3, over any field $k$ of characteristic $\neq 2$. In particular, we provide explicit equations defining the Kummer variety $\mathcal…
We show that there exists a sequence of genus three curves defined over the rationals in which the height of a canonical Gross-Schoen cycle tends to infinity.
In this short note we construct unbounded families of minimal surfaces of general type with canonical map of degree 4 such that the limits of the slopes assume countably many different values among 6+2/3 and 8.
We develop a theory of general sheaves over weighted projective lines. We define and study a canonical decomposition, analogous to Kac's canonical decomposition for representations of quivers, study subsheaves of a general sheaf, general…
We show that the log canonical threshold of a generic determinantal variety and its generic link are the same.
The canonical dimension is an invariant attached to admissible representations of p-adic reductive groups, which has only received significant attention in the case of mod-p representations. In the case of complex representations, the…
We investigate Fano varieties defined over a number field that contain subvarieties whose number of rational points of bounded height is comparable to the total number on the variety.
In this paper, we prove a general result computing the number of rational points of bounded height on a projective variety $V$ which is covered by lines. The main technical result used to achieve this is an upper bound on the number of…
We give an upper bound on the topological complexity of varieties $\mathcal{V}$ obtained as complements in $\mathbb{C}^m$ of the zero locus of a polynomial. As an application, we determine the topological complexity of unordered…
The Collatz variations pattern seems not to have any recurrence relation between numbers. But knowing that there is at least a natural number that converges after several iterations we construct a function $f_{X,Y}$ that is equal to the…
In this paper we generalize the canonical positive scaling of rows and columns of a matrix to the scaling of selected-rank subtensors of an arbitrary tensor. We expect our results and framework will prove useful for sparse-tensor completion…
The distribution of rational points of bounded height on algebraic varieties is far from uniform. Indeed the points tend to accumulate on thin subsets which are images of non-trivial finite morphisms. The problem is to find a way to…
We prove divisorial canonicity of Fano hypersurfaces and double spaces of general position with elementary singularities.
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…
We describe a family of new algorithms for finding the canonical image of a set of points under the action of a permutation group. This family of algorithms makes use of the orbit structure of the group, and a chain of subgroups of the…
We construct three sequences of regular surfaces of general type with unbounded numerical invariants whose canonical map is 2-to-1 onto a canonically embedded surface. Only sporadic examples of surfaces with these properties were previously…
Canonical metrics and conformal invariants are presented for closed oriented even-dimensional manifolds with non-degenerate conformal structures and in particular for compact Riemann surfaces.
We propose an algorithm for classification of linear codes over different finite fields based on canonical augmentation. We apply this algorithm to obtain classification results over fields with 2, 3 and 4 elements.
We provide explicit bounds on the difference of heights of the $j$-invariants of isogenous elliptic curves defined over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$. The first one is reminiscent of a classical estimate for the Faltings height of isogenous…
