AI 中文摘要
对于特征大于次数且常数域足够大的有理函数域上的光滑超曲面，我们将Birch定理所需的变量数量从次数的指数函数改进为二次函数。这与光滑超曲面上有理点无条件存在的尖锐二次阈值（相差常数）一致。借鉴Sawin针对Waring问题提出的Pugin思想，我们利用有限域上的完全指数和处理次要弧；Katz的一个结果将所需的消元简化为获取某些奇异轨迹余维数的下界。我们的主要创新是证明这些下界的新方法：我们引入索引这些指数和的线性泛函的乘法秩概念，并将所得的秩分层与雅可比方程的加权退化相结合，以获得随乘法秩线性增长的余维数估计。
英文摘要
For smooth hypersurfaces over rational function fields of characteristic greater than the degree and with sufficiently large constant field, we improve the number of variables required in Birch's theorem from an exponential function of the degree to a quadratic one. This agrees, up to constants, with the sharp quadratic threshold for the unconditional existence of rational points on smooth hypersurfaces. A circle method argument reduces the required cancellation to lower bounds for the codimensions of certain singular loci associated with complete exponential sums over finite fields. Our main innovation is a new method for proving these bounds: we introduce the notion of multiplication rank for the linear functionals indexing these exponential sums and combine the resulting rank stratification with a weighted degeneration of the Jacobian equations to obtain a codimension estimate that grows linearly with multiplication rank.
