Previous work of the authors showed that every quartic del Pezzo surface over a number field has index dividing $2$ (i.e., has a closed point of degree $2$ modulo $4$),, and asked whether such surfaces always have a closed point of degree…

In his book "Cubic forms" Manin discovered that del Pezzo surfaces are related to root systems. To explain the many numerical coincidences Batyrev conjectured that a universal torsor on a del Pezzo surface can be embedded in a certain…

We study the space of rational curves on del Pezzo surfaces in positive characteristic. For most primes p we prove the irreducibility of the moduli space of rational curves of a given nef class, extending results of Testa in characteristic…

We prove Manin's conjecture for bi-equivariant compactifications of unipotent groups.

We give a characterization of all del Pezzo surfaces of degree 6 over an arbitrary field $F$. A surface is determined by a pair of separable algebras. These algebras are used to compute the Quillen $K$-theory of the surface. As a…

Manin's conjecture predicts the distribution of rational points on Fano varieties. Using explicit parameterizations of rational points by integral points on universal torsors and lattice-point-counting techniques, it was proved for several…

We prove the irreducibility of the spaces of rational curves on del Pezzo manifolds of Picard rank 1 and dimension at least 4 by analyzing the fibers of evaluation maps. As a corollary, we prove Geometric Manin's Conjecture in these cases.

For given non-zero integers a,b,q we investigate the density of integer solutions (x,y) to the binary cubic congruence ax^2+by^3=0 (mod q). We use this to establish the Manin conjecture for a singular del Pezzo surface of degree 2 defined…

We prove the "all-the-heights'' version of the Batyrev--Manin--Peyre conjecture for split quintic del Pezzo surfaces, both for counting rational points over global function fields in positive characteristic and for the motivic version over…

In this article, we obtain an upper bound for the number of integral points on the del Pezzo surfaces of degree two.

We count rational points of bounded height on the non-normal senary quartic hypersurface x 4 = (y 2 1 + $\times$ $\times$ $\times$ + y 2 4)z 2 in the spirit of Manin's conjecture.

In this article, we consider weak del Pezzo surfaces defined over a finite field, and their associated, singular, anticanonical models. We first define arithmetic types for such surfaces, by considering the Frobenius actions on their Picard…

We prove that the number of rational points of bounded height on certain del Pezzo surfaces of degree 1 defined over Q grows linearly, as predicted by Manin's conjecture. Along the way, we investigate the average number of integral points…

We state a number of conjectures that together allow one to classify a broad class of del Pezzo surfaces with cyclic quotient singularities using mirror symmetry. We prove our conjectures in the simplest cases. The conjectures relate…

We prove Manin's conjecture concerning the distribution of rational points of bounded height, and its refinement by Peyre, for wonderful compactifications of semi-simple algebraic groups over number fields. The proof proceeds via the study…

We construct absolutely simple jacobians of non-hyperelliptic genus 4 curves, using Del Pezzo surfaces of degree 1. This paper is a natural continuation of author's paper math.AG/0405156.

We study the arithmetic of certain del Pezzo surfaces of degree 2. We produce examples of Brauer-Manin obstruction to the Hasse principle, coming from 2- and 4-torsion elements in the Brauer group.

We prove Manin's conjecture for a singular cubic surface S with a singularity of type E6. If U is the open subset of S obtained by deleting the unique line from S, then the number of rational points in U with anticanonical height bounded by…

Let Q -> B be a quadric fibration and T -> B a family of sextic du Val del Pezzo surfaces. Making use of the recent theory of noncommutative mixed motives, we establish a precise relation between the Schur-finiteness conjecture for Q, resp.…

We show that the recent conjecture of the first-named author for the special value at $s=1$ of the zeta function of an arithmetic surface is equivalent to the Birch-Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture for the Jacobian of the generic fibre.
