We prove a special case of Erd\H{o}s' unit distance problem using a corollary of the subspace theorem bounding the number of solutions of linear equations from a multiplicative group. We restrict our attention to unit distances coming from…

The Lang map, namely the universal dominant rational map to a variety of general type, is constructed and briefly discussed in relation with arithmetic conjectures of Harris, Lang and Manin. Existence of the Lang map follows from the…

We prove fixed point theorems in a space with a distance function that takes values in a partially ordered monoid. On the one hand, such an approach allows one to generalize some fixed point theorems in a broad class of spaces, including…

We note that Pillay's result on the stability of an algebraically closed field with a predicate for a group of Lang type implies that number uniformity follows formally from the finiteness results analogous to Faltings' Theorem.

We construct families of curves which provide counterexamples for a uniform boundedness question. These families generalize those studied previously by several authors. We show, in detail, what fails in the argument of Caporaso, Harris,…

The classical Mazur-Ulam theorem establishes that every surjective isometry between normed real vector spaces is an affine transformation. In various applied mathematical settings, however, one encounters maps that preserve distances not…

Given a rational function of degree at least two defined over a number field k, we study the cardinality of the set of rational iterated preimages. We prove bounds for the cardinality of this set as the rational function varies in certain…

Consider an elliptic curve, defined over the rational numbers, and embedded in projective space. The rational points on the curve are viewed as integer vectors with coprime coordinates. What can be said about a rational point if a bound is…

We introduce an infinite set of integer mappings that generalize the well-known Collatz-Ulam mapping and we conjecture that an infinite subset of these mappings feature the remarkable property of the Collatz conjecture, namely that they…

If $R$ is a rational map, the Main Result is a uniformization Theorem for the space of decompositions of the iterates of $R$. Secondly, we show that Fatou conjecture holds for decomposable rational maps.

We present here some conjectures on the diagonalizability of uniform principal bundles on rational homogeneous spaces, that are natural extensions of classical theorems on uniform vector bundles on the projective space, and study the…

Let K be a number field and let S be a finite set of places of K which contains all the Archimedean places. For any f(z) in K(z) of degree d at least 2 which is not a d-th power in \bar{K}(z), Siegel's theorem implies that the image set…

In this paper we shall give a short proof of the result originally obtained by Ashutosh Kumar that for each $A\subset \mathbb{R}$ there exists $B\subset A$ full in $A$ such that no distance between two distinct points from $B$ is rational.…

According to a classical result of Spencer, Szemer\'edi, and Trotter (1984), the maximum number of times the unit distance can occur among $n$ points in the plane is $O(n^{4/3})$. This is far from Erd\H{o}s's lower bound, $n^{1+O(1/\log\log…

A topological space is said to be cardinality homogeneous if every nonempty open subset has the same cardinality as the space itself. Let $X$ and $Y$ be cardinality homogeneous metric spaces of the same cardinality. If there exists a…

We consider from a geometric point of view the conjectural fundamental lemma of Langlands and Shelstad for unitary groups over a local field of positive characteristic. We introduce projective algebraic varieties over the finite residue…

A resolution-free definition of rational singularities is introduced, and it is proved that for a variety admitting a resolution of singularities, so in particular in characteristic zero, this is equivalent to the usual definition. It is…

The Falconer conjecture asserts that if E is a planar set with Hausdorff dimension strictly greater than 1, then its Euclidean distance set has positive one-dimensional Lebesgue measure. We discuss the analogous question with the Euclidean…

A well-known conjecture of Orlov asks whether the existence of a full exceptional collection implies rationality of the underlying variety. We prove this conjecture for arithmetic toric varieties over general fields. We also investigate a…

Suppose that $k$ runners having different constant speeds run laps on a circular track of unit length. The Lonely Runner Conjecture states that, sooner or later, any given runner will be at distance at least $1/k$ from all the other…
