Let F and K be number fields, with F contained in K. and let O_F and O_K be their rings of integers. If there exists an elliptic curve E over F such that E(F) and E(K) have rank 1, then there exists a diophantine definition of O_F over O_K.
Let $A$ be abelian variety over the function field $K$ of a compact Riemann surface $B$. Fix a model $f \colon \mathcal{A} \to B$ of $A/K$ and a certain effective horizontal divisor $\DD \subset \mathcal{A}$. We give a sufficient condition…
In 1980, Faltings proved, by deep local algebra methods, a local result regarding formal functions which has the following global geometric fact as a consequence. Theorem: Let k be an algebraically closed field (of any characteristic). Let…
Let $A$ be an abelian variety over a $p$-adic field $K$ and $L$ an algebraic infinite extension over $K$. We consider the finiteness of the torsion part of the group of rational points $A(L)$ under some assumptions. In 1975, Hideo Imai…
Given an elliptic curve ${\mathcal E}$ over a field $K$ it is a challenging problem to write down explicit elements of its endomorphism ring ${\rm End}({\mathcal E});$ the problem amounts to find all possible solutions to a functional…
We study the density of solutions to Diophantine inequalities involving non-singular ternary forms, or equivalently, the density of rational points close to non-singular plane algebraic curves.

Let $K$ be a number field, $A/K$ be an absolutely simple abelian variety of CM type, and $\ell$ be a prime number. We give explicit bounds on the degree over $K$ of the division fields $K(A[\ell^n])$, and when $A$ is an elliptic curve we…
An elliptic curve $E$ defined over a $p$-adic field $K$ with a $p$-isogeny $\phi:E\rightarrow E^\prime$ comes equipped with an invariant $\alpha_{\phi/K}$ that measures the valuation of the leading term of the formal group homomorphism…
In this article, we are interested in finding rational points on certain superelliptic curves.
For a given point P in the group of K-rational points E(K) of an elliptic curve, we consider the sequence of values (F_1(P),F_2(P),F_3(P),...) of the division polynomials of E at P. If K is a finite field, we prove that the sequence is…
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $0$ and let $K = k(B)$ be the function field of a geometrically irreducible projective curve $B$ over $k$. Let $A/K$ be a $g$-dimensional abelian variety with $\mathrm{Tr}_{K/k}(A) = 0$. We prove that…
Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a projective irreducible nonsingular algebraic curve defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. This paper presents a variation of the St\"orh-Voloch theory and sets new bounds to the number of…
In a remarkable article Ribet showed how to attach rational $2$-dimensional representations to elliptic ${\mathbb Q}$-curves. An abelian variety $A$ is a (weak) $K$-variety if it is isogenous to all of its $\text{Gal}_K$-conjugates. In this…
Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field and let $\mathcal{O}_K$ be the ring of algebraic integers of $K$. For $\alpha \in \mathcal{O}_K$ with $|\alpha| > 1$, define \[ \mathcal{D}_\alpha = \bigcup_{n=0}^\infty…
We study the medial axis of a set $K$ in Euclidean space (the set of points in space with more than one closest point in $K$) from a "coarse" and "quantitative" perspective. We show that on "most" balls $B(x,r)$ in the complement of $K$,…
Let $K$ be a fixed number field, assumed to be Galois over $\mathbb Q$. Let $r$ and $f$ be fixed integers with $f$ positive. Given an elliptic curve $E$, defined over $K$, we consider the problem of counting the number of degree $f$ prime…
In our previous papers we introduced categorical invariants, which are, roughly speaking, sets of triangulated subcategories in a given triangulated category and their quotients. Here is extended the list of examples, where these sets are…
Given a number field $k$, we show that, for many finite groups $G$, all the Galois extensions of $k$ with Galois group $G$ cannot be obtained by specializing any given finitely many Galois extensions $E/k(T)$ with Galois group $G$ and $E/k$…
