Counting points of slope varieties over finite fields.
We study the distribution of rational points on a certain exponential-algebraic surface and we prove, for this surface, a conjecture of A. J. Wilkie.
For any number field k, upper bounds are established for the number of k-rational points of bounded height on non-singular del Pezzo surfaces defined over k, which are equipped with suitable conic bundle structures over k.
The tempered fundamental group of a -adic analytic space classifies covers that are dominated by a topological cover (for the Berkovich topology) of a finite étale cover of the space. Here we construct cospecialization homomorphisms between versions of the tempered fundamental groups of the fibers of a smooth family of curves with semistable reduction. To do so, we will translate our problem in terms of cospecialization morphisms of fundamental groups of the log fibers of the log reduction and...
