Let $p$ be a prime. We discuss methods of solution of congruences modulo $p^n$ using $p$-adic numbers; these methods are similar to computations with real numbers (local methods). Examples of relations between local and global methods are given producing a passage from congruences to solutions in integers (global methods). The use of a computer is illistrated for the study of $p$-adic numbers and algebraic curves.
We show that the points of a global function field, whose classes are 2-divisible in the Picard group, form a connected graph, with the incidence relation generalizing the well known quadratic reciprocity law. We prove that for every global function field the dimension of this graph is precisely 2. In addition we develop an analog of global square theorem that concerns points 2-divisible in the Picard group.
In this paper we study couples of finite separable extensions of the function field $\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ which are arithmetically equivalent, i.e. such that prime ideals of $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ decompose with the same inertia degrees in the two fields, up to finitely many exceptions. In the first part of this work, we extend previous results by Cornelissen, Kontogeorgis and Van der Zalm to the case of non-geometric extensions of $\mathbb{F}_q(T)$, which are fields such that their field of constants may be bigger than $\mathbb{F}_q$. In the second part, we explicitly produce examples of non-geometric…
We show that all of the nice behavior for Tamagawa numbers, Tate-Shafarevich sets, and other arithmetic invariants of pseudo-reductive groups over global function fields proved in \cite{rospred} fails in general for non-commutative unipotent groups. We also give some positive results which show that Tamagawa numbers do exhibit some reasonable behavior for arbitrary connected linear algebraic groups over global function fields.
In his earlier work, the author introduced a group theory question that arises in the study of iterated Galois groups of post-critically finite quadratic polynomials. In this paper, we prove the first non-trivial results on this question.

In this paper we study local-global principles for tori over semi-global fields, which are one variable function fields over complete discretely valued fields. In particular, we show that for principal homogeneous spaces for tori over the underlying discrete valuation ring, the obstruction to a local-global principle with respect to discrete valuations can be computed using methods coming from patching. We give a sufficient condition for the vanishing of the obstruction, as well as examples were the obstruction is nontrivial or even infinite. A major tool is the notion of a flasque resolution …
We study the relationship between the local and global Galois theory of function fields over a complete discretely valued field. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for local separable extensions to descend to global extensions, and for the local absolute Galois group to inject into the global absolute Galois group. As an application we obtain a local-global principle for the index of a variety over such a function field. In this context we also study algebraic versions of van Kampen's theorem, describing the global absolute Galois group as a pushout of local absolute Galois groups.
We define variants of PEL type of the Shimura varieties that appear in the context of the Arithmetic Gan-Gross-Prasad conjecture. We formulate for them a version of the AGGP conjecture. We also construct (global and semi-global) integral models of these Shimura varieties and formulate for them conjectures on arithmetic intersection numbers. We prove some of these conjectures in low dimension.
Complex periods are algebraic integrals over complex algebraic domains, also appearing as Feynman integrals and multiple zeta values. The Grothendieck-de Rham period isomorphisms for p-adic algebraic varieties defined via Monski-Washnitzer cohomology, is briefly reviewed. The relation to various p-adic analogues of periods are considered, and their relation to Buium-Manin arithmetic differential equations.
If K is a number field, arithmetic duality theorems for tori and complexes of tori over K are crucial to understand local-global principles for linear algebraic groups over K. When K is a global field of positive characteristic, we prove similar arithmetic duality theorems, including a Poitou-Tate exact sequence for Galois hypercohomology of complexes of tori. One of the main ingredients is Artin-Mazur-Milne duality theorem for fppf cohomology of finite flat commutative group schemes.
This update to my article on Congruent numbers, elliptic curves, and the passage from the local to the global, which appeared in Resonance, December 2009, pp. 1183--1205 (https://www.ias.ac.in/describe/article/reso/014/12/1183-1205) and was posted here as arXiv:0704.3783, covers a few recent advances in the arithmetic of elliptic curves with special reference to the congruent number problem.
Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a regular projective arithmetic variety equipped with an ample hermitian line bundle $\overline{\mathcal{L}}$. We prove that the proportion of global sections $σ$ with $\left\lVert σ\right\rVert_{\infty}<1$ of $\overline{\mathcal{L}}^{\otimes d}$ whose divisor does not have a singular point on the fiber $\mathcal{X}_p$ over any prime $p<e^{\varepsilon d}$ tends to $ζ_{\mathcal{X}}(1+\dim \mathcal{X})^{-1}$ as $d\rightarrow \infty$.
We complete the picture of local and global arithmetic duality theorems for short complexes of finite Galois modules and tori over $p$-adic function fields. In view of the duality theorems, we deduce a $12$-term Poitou--Tate exact sequence which relates global Galois cohomology groups to restricted topological products of local Galois cohomology groups.
We formulate and prove a local arithmetic Siegel--Weil formula for GSpin Rapoport--Zink spaces, which is a precise identity between the arithmetic intersection numbers of special cycles on GSpin Rapoport--Zink spaces and the derivatives of local representation densities of quadratic forms. As a first application, we prove a semi-global arithmetic Siegel--Weil formula as conjectured by Kudla, which relates the arithmetic intersection numbers of special cycles on GSpin Shimura varieties at a place of good reduction and the central derivatives of nonsingular Fourier coefficients of incoherent Sie…
Let $K$ be a global field of positive characteristic. We prove that the Brauer-Manin obstructions to the Hasse principle, to weak approximation and to strong approximation are the only ones for homogeneous spaces of reductive groups with reductive stabilizers. The methods involve abelianization techniques and arithmetic duality theorems for complexes of tori over K.
Assuming Vojta's conjecture, we give a sufficient condition for the limit \[ \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{h_{Y}(f^{n}(x))}{h_{H}(f^{n}(x))} \] is equal to zero, where $f \colon X \longrightarrow X$ is a surjective self-morphism on a smooth projective variety $X$, $h_{H}$ is an ample height function on $X$, and $h_{Y}$ is a global height function associated with a closed subscheme $Y \subset X$ of codimension at least two. Based on this, we propose a conjecture on a sufficient condition for the limit to be zero. We point out that our conjecture implies Dynamical Mordell-Lang conjecture for endomor…
We prove the local Kudla--Rapoport conjecture, which is a precise identity between the arithmetic intersection numbers of special cycles on unitary Rapoport--Zink spaces and the derivatives of local representation densities of hermitian forms. As a first application, we prove the global Kudla--Rapoport conjecture, which relates the arithmetic intersection numbers of special cycles on unitary Shimura varieties and the central derivatives of the Fourier coefficients of incoherent Eisenstein series. Combining previous results of Liu and Garcia--Sankaran, we also prove cases of the arithmetic Sieg…
