We study the problem of describing local components of height functions on abelian varieties over characteristic $0$ local fields as functions on spaces of torsors under various realisations of a $2$-step unipotent motivic fundamental group…

The Chabauty-Coleman method is a $p$-adic method for finding all rational points on curves of genus $g$ whose Jacobians have Mordell-Weil rank $r < g$. Recently, Edixhoven and Lido developed a geometric quadratic Chabauty method that was…

We prove that when all hyperelliptic curves of genus $n\geq 1$ having a rational Weierstrass point are ordered by height, the average size of the 2-Selmer group of their Jacobians is equal to 3. It follows that (the limsup of) the average…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve of genus $\geq2$ over a number field. A natural variant of Grothendieck's Section Conjecture postulates that every section of the fundamental exact sequence for $X$ which everywhere locally comes from a…

Bruin--Najman and Ozman--Siksek have recently determined the quadratic points on all modular curves $X_0(N)$ of genus 2, 3, 4, and 5 whose Mordell--Weil group has rank 0. In this paper we do the same for the $X_0(N)$ of genus 2, 3, 4, and 5…

The main point of the paper is to take the explicit motivic Chabauty-Kim method developed in papers of Dan-Cohen--Wewers and Dan-Cohen and the author and make it work for non-rational curves. In particular, we calculate the abstract form of…

In 1922, Mordell conjectured that the set of rational points on a smooth curve $C$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ with genus $g \ge 2$ is finite. This has been proved by Faltings in 1983. However, Coleman determined in 1985 an upper bound of…

Our goal in this note is to give a number of examples of abelian varieties over function fields k(t) which have bounded ranks in towers of extensions such as k(t^{1/d}) for varying d. Along the way we prove some new results on Fermat curves…

We study the Selmer variety associated to a canonical quotient of the $\Q_p$-pro-unipotent fundamental group of a smooth projective curve of genus at least two defined over $\Q$ whose Jacobian decomposes into a product of abelian varieties…

We explain how one can efficiently determine the (finite) set of rational points on a curve of genus 2 over $\mathbb Q$ with Jacobian variety $J$, given a point $P \in J(\mathbb Q)$ generating a subgroup of finite index in $J(\mathbb Q)$.

Let $k$ be a number field and $V(k)$ an $n$-dimensional projective variety over $k$. We use the $K$-theory of a $C^*$-algebra $A_V$ associated to $V(k)$ to define a height of points of $V(k)$. The corresponding counting function is…

We obtain two combinatorial results: an equality of Weyl groups and an inequality of roots, in the setting of generalised Bott-Samelson resolutions of minuscule Schubert varieties. These results are used in the companion paper [BK19] to…

Quadratic Chabauty is a $p$-adic method for determining rational points on curves. Local heights are arithmetic invariants used in the quadratic Chabauty method. We present an algorithm to compute these local heights for hyperelliptic…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety of dimension $n\geq 2$ and $G\cong\mathbf{Z}^{n-1}$ a free abelian group of automorphisms of $X$ over $\overline{\mathbf{Q}}$. Suppose that $G$ is of positive entropy. We construct a canonical height…

Let $X$ be a quotient of the modular curve $X_0(N)$ whose Jacobian $J_X$ is a simple factor of $J_0(N)^{new}$ over $\mathbb{Q}$. Let $f$ be the newform of level $N$ and weight 2 associated with $J_X$; assume $f$ has analytic rank 1. We give…

We provably compute the full set of rational points on 1403 Picard curves defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ with Jacobians of Mordell-Weil rank $1$ using the Chabauty-Coleman method. To carry out this computation, we extend Magma code of…

In this paper, we introduce (local and) global non-abelian zeta functions for general curves. As an example, we compute the so-called rank two zeta functions for genus two curves by studying non-abelian Brill-Noether loci and their…

Let $C$ be a smooth projective absolutely irreducible curve of genus $g \geq 2$ over a number field $K$ of degree $d$, and denote its Jacobian by $J$. Denote the Mordell--Weil rank of $J(K)$ by $r$. We give an explicit and practical…

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…

Let $K$ be a number field and $K_{ur}$ be the maximal extension of $K$ that is unramified at all places. In a previous article, the first author found three real quadratic fields $K$ such that $Gal(K_{ur}/K)$ is finite and nonabelian simple…
