Answering a question of Zureick-Brown, we determine the cubic points on the modular curves $X_0(N)$ for $N \in \{53,57,61,65,67,73\}$ as well as the quartic points on $X_0(65)$. To do so, we develop a "partially relative" symmetric Chabauty…

In this paper we determine the quadratic points on the modular curves X_0(N), where the curve is non-hyperelliptic, the genus is 3, 4 or 5, and the Mordell--Weil group of J_0(N) is finite. The values of N are 34, 38, 42, 44, 45, 51, 52, 54,…

Let $E$ be a non-CM elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb {Q}$. Fix an algebraic closure $\overline{\mathbb {Q}}$ of $\mathbb {Q}$. We get a Galois representation \[\rho_E \colon Gal(\overline{\mathbb {Q}}/\mathbb {Q}) \to GL_2(\hat{\mathbb…

Let $X/\mathbb{Q}$ be a curve of genus $g \ge 2$ with Jacobian $J$ and let $\ell$ be a prime of good reduction. Using Selmer varieties, Kim defines a decreasing sequence \[ X(\mathbb{Q}_\ell) \supseteq X(\mathbb{Q}_\ell)_1 \supseteq…

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 $J(\mathbb Q)$.

We show how the size of the Galois groups of iterates of a quadratic polynomial $f(x)$ can be parametrized by certain rational points on the curves $C_n:y^2=f^n(x)$ and their quadratic twists. To that end, we study the arithmetic of such…

In this paper we improve on existing methods to compute quadratic points on modular curves and apply them to successfully find all the quadratic points on all modular curves $X_0(N)$ of genus up to $8$, and genus up to $10$ with $N$ prime,…

Julia Robinson has given a first-order definition of the rational integers Z in the rational numbers Q by a formula (\forall \exists \forall \exists)(F=0) where the \forall-quantifiers run over a total of 8 variables, and where F is a…

We study the Selmer varieties of smooth projective curves of genus at least two defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ which geometrically dominate a curve with CM Jacobian. We extend a result of Coates and Kim to show that Kim's non-abelian Chabauty…

We compute rational points on genus $3$ odd degree hyperelliptic curves $C$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ that have Jacobians of Mordell-Weil rank $0$. The computation applies the Chabauty-Coleman method to find the zero set of a certain system of…

Based on computational evidence, we formulate a number of conjectures on the distribution of rational points on curves of genus 2 over the rational numbers, in terms of the size of the coefficients of an equation of the form y^2 = f(x) >.

Consider the smooth projective models C of curves y^2=f(x) with f(x) in Z[x] monic and separable of degree 2g+1. We prove that for g >= 3, a positive fraction of these have only one rational point, the point at infinity. We prove a lower…

Let $a(\lambda)$ and $b(\lambda)$ be two polynomials with coefficients in complex numbers and let $f_{\lamb$ be a one-parameter family of polynomials indexed by all complex numbers $\lambda$. We study whether there exist infinitely many…

We determine all modular curves $X_0(N)$ with infinitely many quartic points. To do this, we define a pairing that induces a quadratic form representing all possible degrees of a rational morphism from $X_0(N)$ to a positive rank elliptic…

Let $C$ be a curve of genus at least three defined over a number field, and let $r$ be the rank of the rational points of its Jacobian. Under mild hypotheses on $r$, recent results by Katz, Rabinoff, Zureick-Brown, and Stoll bound the…

A fundamental problem in arithmetic geometry is to determine the image of the mod $N$ Galois representation for all elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ and integers $N \geq 1$. For a given subgroup $G \le…

We look at the elliptic curve E(q), where q is a fixed rational number. A point (p,r) on E(q) is called a rational point if both p and r are rational numbers. We introduce the concept of conjugate points and show that not both can be…

Given an algebraic family $f\colon\Lambda\times \mathbb{A}^2 \to \Lambda\times \mathbb{A}^2$ of plane polynomial automorphisms of H\'enon type parameterized by a quasi-projective curve, defined over a number field $\mathbb{K},$ we…

We show that even dimensional Fermat cubic hypersurfaces are rational over any field of characteristic different from three by producing explicit rational parametrizations given by polynomials of low degree. As a byproduct of our…

Iteration of the quadratic map produces sequences of polynomials whose degrees {\sl explode} as the orbital period grows more and more. The polynomial mixing all 335 period-12 orbits has degree $4020$, while for the $52,377$ period-20…
