In this article, we establish an analogue of the dimension growth conjecture, which is regarding the density of rational points on projective varieties, for compact submanifolds of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with non-vanishing curvature. We also…
We establish blow-up profiles for any blowing-up sequence of solutions of general conformally invariant fully nonlinear elliptic equations on Euclidean domains. We prove that (i) the distance between blow-up points is bounded from below by…
Let $f \in Q(z)$ be a polynomial or rational function of degree 2. A special case of Morton and Silverman's Dynamical Uniform Boundedness Conjecture states that the number of rational preperiodic points of $f$ is bounded above by an…
We prove that, when genus two curves $C/\mathbb{Q}$ with a marked Weierstass point are ordered by height, the average number of rational points $\#|C(\mathbb{Q})|$ is bounded. The argument follows the same ideas as the sphere-packing proof…
This paper extends previous results of the authors, concerning the behaviour of the equimultiple locus of algebroid surfaces under blowing--up, to arbitrary characteristic.
Let X be the wonderful compactification of a connected adjoint semisimple group G defined over a number field K. We prove Manin's conjecture on the asymptotic (as T\to \infty) of the number of K-rational points of X of height less than T,…
We study the distribution of $S$-integral points on $\mathrm{SL}_2$-orbit closures of binary forms and prove an asymptotic formula for the number of $S$-integral points of bounded height on $\mathrm{SL}_2$-orbit closures of binary forms.…
We prove asymptotics for semi-integral points of bounded height on toric varieties. We verify the Manin-type conjecture of Pieropan, Smeets, Tanimoto and V\'arilly-Alvarado for smooth and certain singular toric orbifolds upon replacing the…
We construct a non-full exceptional collection of maximal length consisting of line bundles on the blow-up of the projective plane in 10 points in general position. This provides a counterexample to a conjecture of Kuznetsov and to a…
We study Gromov-Witten invariants on the blow-up of P^n at a point, which is probably the simplest example of a variety whose moduli spaces of stable maps do not have the expected dimension. It is shown that many of these invariants can be…
We establish some upper and lower bounds for the number of rational points of Prym varieties over finite fields.
This paper establishes the conjecture that a non-singular projective hypersurface of dimension $r$, which is not equal to a linear space, contains $O(B^{r+\epsilon})$ rational points of height at most $B$, for any choice of $\epsilon>0$.…
We give asymptotics for the number of Drinfeld $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$-modules over $\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ of a given height, which satisfy prescribed sets of local conditions. This is done by relating our problem to a problem about counting points on…
Let $k$ be a number field and $S$ a finite set of places of $k$ containing the archimedean ones. We count the number of algebraic points of bounded height whose coordinates lie in the ring of $S$-integers of $k$. Moreover, we give an…
Let $K$ be a global field of positive characteristic. We give an asymptotic formula for the number of $K$-points of bounded height on the Hilbert scheme $\text{Hilb}^2\mathbb{P}^2$ and show that by eliminating an exceptional thin set, the…
Let $X$ be an algebraic variety, defined over the rationals. This paper gives upper bounds for the number of rational points on $X$, with height at most $B$, for the case in which $X$ is a curve or a surface. In the latter case one excludes…
We give upper bounds for the number of rational points of bounded anti-canonical height on del Pezzo surfaces of degree at most five over any global field whose characteristic is not equal to two or three. For number fields these results…
In this article, we study Lehmer-type bounds for the N\'eron-Tate height of $\bar{K}$-points on abelian varieties $A$ over number fields $K$. Then, we estimate the number of $K$-rational points on $A$ with N\'eron-Tate height $\leq \log B$…
We consider the structure of rational points on elliptic curves in Weierstrass form. Let x(P)=A_P/B_P^2 denote the $x$-coordinate of the rational point P then we consider when B_P can be a prime power. Using Faltings' Theorem we show that…
We give an asymptotic formula for the number of elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ with bounded Faltings height. Silverman has shown that the Faltings height for elliptic curves over number fields can be expressed in terms of modular…
