Let $X$ be a projective variety over a number field $K$ (resp. over $\mathbb{C}$). Let $H$ be the sum of ``sufficiently many positive divisors'' on $X$. We show that any set of quasi-integral points (resp. any integral curve) in $X-H$ is…

Let $X/K$ be a smooth projective variety defined over a number field, and let $f:X\to{X}$ be a morphism defined over $K$. We formulate a number of statements of varying strengths asserting, roughly, that if there is at least one point…

We prove some new degeneracy results for integral points and entire curves on surfaces; in particular, we provide the first example, to our knowledge, of a simply connected smooth variety whose sets of integral points are never…

Let $S \subset \P^n$ be a smooth quartic hypersurface defined over a number field $K$. If $n \ge 4$, then for some finite extension $K'$ of $K$ the set $S(K')$ of $K'$-rational points of $S$ is Zariski dense.

Let X be a smooth quartic surface not containing lines, defined over a number field K. We prove that there are only finitely many bitangents to X which are defined over K. This result can be interpreted as saying that a certain surface,…

We prove that any surjective self-morphism with $\delta_f > 1$ on a potentially dense smooth projective surface defined over a number field $K$ has densely many $L$-rational points for a finite extension $L/K$.

In this paper we prove that the set of $S$-integral points of the smooth cubic surfaces in $\mathbb{A}^3$ over a number field $k$ is not thin, for suitable $k$ and $S$. As a corollary, we obtain results on the complement in $\mathbb{P}^2$…

Let $X$ be an Enriques surface defined over a number field $K$. Then there exists a finite extension $K'/K$ such that the set of $K'$-rational points of $X$ is Zariski dense.

We study the S-integral points on the complement of a union of hyperplanes in projective space, where S is a finite set of places of a number field k. In the classical case where S consists of the set of archimedean places of k, we…

Let $S$ be a rational surface with $\dim|-K_S|\ge 1$ and let $\pi: X\rightarrow S$ be a ramified cyclic covering from a nonruled smooth surface $X$. We show that for any integer $k\ge 3$ and ample divisor $A$ on $S$, the adjoint divisor…

We prove that a regular projective surface $S$ over a field $k$ of characteristic $p \ge 7$, with $H^0(S,\mathcal{O}_S) = k$ and $-K_S$ being nef, is geometrically integral over $k$.

We prove that the integral points are potentially Zariski dense in the complement of a reduced effective singular anticanonical divisor in a smooth del Pezzo surface, with the exception of $\mathbb{P}^2$ minus three concurrent lines (for…

Let $D$ be a non-empty effective divisor on $\mathbb{P}^1$. We show that when ordered by height, any set of $(D,S)$-integral points on $\mathbb{P}^1$ of bounded degree has relative density zero. We then apply this to arithmetic dynamics:…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $0$. In this paper we describe a classification of smooth log K3 surfaces $X$ over $k$ whose geometric Picard group is trivial and which can be compactified into del Pezzo surfaces. We show that such an…

Let $X$ be a K3 surface defined over a number field $K$. Assume that $X$ admits a structure of an elliptic fibration or an infinite group of automorphisms. Then there exists a finite extension $K'/K$ such that the set of $K'$-rational…

For any field k of characteristic at most 5 we exhibit an explicit smooth quartic surface in projective threespace over k with trivial automorphism group over the algebraic closure of k. We also show how this can be extended to higher…

We classify birational maps of projective smooth surfaces whose non-critical periodic points are Zariski dense. In particular, we show that if the first dynamical degree is greater than one, then the periodic points are Zariski dense.

Suppose V is a surface over a number field k that admits two elliptic fibrations. We show that for each integer d there exists an explicitly computable closed subset Z of V, not equal to V, such that for each field extension K of k of…

Let $f : X \to S$ be a smooth projective family defined over $\mathcal{O}_{K}[\mathcal{S}^{-1}]$, where $K \subset \mathbb{C}$ is a number field and $\mathcal{S}$ is a finite set of primes. For each prime $\mathfrak{p} \in…

We state conditions under which the set S(k) of k-rational points on a del Pezzo surface S of degree 1 over an infinite field k of characteristic not equal to 2 or 3 is Zariski dense. For example, it suffices to require that the elliptic…
