First-order jet bundles can be put at the foundations of the modern geometric approach to nonlinear PDEs, since higher-order jet bundles can be seen as constrained iterated jet bundles. The definition of first-order jet bundles can be given in many equivalent ways - for instance, by means of Grassmann bundles. In this paper we generalize it by means of flag bundles, and develop the corresponding theory for higher-oder and infinite-order jet bundles. We show that this is a natural geometric framework...
We give a geometric interpretation (and we deduce an explicit formula) for two types of exponential sums, one of which is the third moment of Kloosterman sums over of type . We establish a connection between the sums considered and the number of -rational points on explicit smooth projective surfaces, one of which is a surface, whereas the other is a smooth cubic surface. As a consequence, we obtain, applying Grothendieck-Lefschetz theory, a generalized formula for the third moment of Kloosterman...
Let A be an abelian variety with commutative endomorphism algebra over a finite field k. The k-isogeny class of A is uniquely determined by a Weil polynomial f A without multiple roots. We give a classification of the groups of k-rational points on varieties from this class in terms of Newton polygons of f A(1 − t).
We are concerned with the set of all growth exponents of regular functions on an algebraic subset V of . We show that its elements form an increasing sequence of rational numbers and we study the dependence of its structure on the geometric properties of V.
