We consider the quotient variety associated to a linear representation of the cyclic group of order p in characteristic p>0. We estimate the minimal discrepancy of exceptional divisors over the singular locus. In particular, we give…
Let X be a minimal complex surface of general type such that its image via the canonical map is a surface; we denote by d the degree of the canonical map. In this expository work, first of all we recall the known possibilities for the…
We prove several formulas for the distribution of positive roots.
We obtain a non--trivial upper bound for the multiplicative energy of any sufficiently large subset of a subvariety of a finite algebraic group. We also find some applications of our results to growth of conjugates classes, estimates of…
We give an effective upper bound for the index of klt complements on toric Fano varieties.
This paper presents new examples of projective surfaces of general type over $\mathbb{C}$ with canonical map of degree $ 3 $ onto a surface of general type. Very few examples are known of such surfaces and some of the examples in this paper…
We construct some examples of polynomial maps over finite fields that admit subvarieties with a peculiar property: every geometric point is mapped to a fixed point by some iteration of the map, while the whole subvariety is not. Several…
We prove the effectivity of the dynatomic cycles for morphisms of projective varieties. We then analyze the degrees of the dynatomic cycles and multiplicities of formal periodic points and apply these results to the existence of periodic…
After a historical discussion of classical uniformisation results for Riemann surfaces, of problems appearing in higher dimensions, and of uniformisation results for projective manifolds with trivial or ample canonical bundle, we introduce…
A construction of Wehrheim and Woodward circumvents the problem that compositions of smooth canonical relations are not always smooth, building a category suitable for functorial quantization. To apply their construction to more examples,…
Recent theorems of Dubickas and Mossinghoff use auxiliary polynomials to give lower bounds on the Weil height of an algebraic number $\alpha$ under certain assumptions on $\alpha$. We prove a theorem which introduces an auxiliary polynomial…
We prove level-by-level upper and lower bounds on the strength of determinacy for finite differences of sets in the hyperarithmetical hierarchy in terms of subsystems of finite-and transfinite-order arithmetic, extending the…
This is a short survey illustrating some of the essential aspects of the theory of canonical extensions. In addition some topological results about canonical extensions of lattices with additional operations in finitely generated varieties…
The second author proved that the set of post-critically finite polynomials of given degree is a set of bounded height, up to change of variables. Motivated by an observation about unicritical polynomials, we complement this by proving that…
In 2006, Kawaguchi proved a lower bound for height of h(f(P)) when f is a regular affine automorphism of A^2, and he conjectured that a similar estimate is also true for regular affine automorphisms of A^n for n>2. In this paper we prove…
We investigate a hierarchy of arithmetical structures obtained by a transfinite addition of a canonic universal predicate, where the canonic universal predicate for M is defined as a minimum universal predicate for M in terms of…
We prove that the linear syzygy spaces of a general canonical curve are spanned by syzygies of minimal rank.
We provide new, improved lower bounds for the Hodge and Frobenius colevels of algebraic varieties (over $\mathbf{C}$ or over a finite field) in all cohomological degrees. These bounds are expressed in terms of the dimension of the variety…
We present an axiomatization of Conway theories which yields,as a corollary, a very concise axiomatization of iteration theories satisfying the functorial implication for base morphisms.
Let $f: \mathbb{P}^1\to \mathbb{P}^1$ be a map of degree $>1$ defined over a function field $k = K(X)$, where $K$ is a number field and $X$ is a projective curve over $K$. For each point $a \in \mathbb{P}^1(k)$ satisfying a dynamical…
