We explore a few algebraic and geometric structures, through certain questions posed by modern cryptography. We focus on the cases of discrete logarithms in finite fields of small characteristic, the structure of isogeny graphs of ordinary abelian varietie ...
We use Masser's counting theorem to prove a lower bound for the canonical height in powers of elliptic curves. We also prove the Galois case of the elliptic Lehmer problem, combining Kummer theory and Masser's result with bounds on the rank and torsion of ...

Let P be a partially ordered set. If the Boolean lattice (2[n],⊂) can be partitioned into copies of P for some positive integer n, then P must satisfy the following two trivial conditions: (1) the size of P is a power of 2, (2) P has a unique maximal and m ...

We establish an explicit upper bound for the Euclidean minimum of a number field which depends, in a precise manner, only on its discriminant and the number of real and complex embeddings. Such bounds were shown to exist by Davenport and Swinnerton-Dyer ([ ...

A subfamily {F-1, F-2, ..., F-vertical bar P vertical bar} subset of F is a copy of the poset P if there exists a bijection i : P -> {F-1, F-2, ..., F-vertical bar P vertical bar}, such that p

We show that for a surjective, separable morphism f of smooth projective varieties over a field of positive characteristic such that f(*) OX congruent to O-Y subadditivity of Kodaira dimension holds, provided the base is of general type and the Hasse-Witt ...

In this paper we show that every set A ⊂ ℕ with positive density contains B + C for some pair B, C of infinite subsets of ℕ , settling a conjecture of Erdős. The proof features two different decompositions of an arbitrary bounded sequence into a structured ...

We formulate a conjecture about the distribution of the canonical height of the lowest non-torsion rational point on a quadratic twist of a given elliptic curve, as the twist varies. This conjecture seems to be very deep and we can prove only partial resul ...

In the Convex Body Chasing problem, we are given an initial point v0. Rd and an online sequence of n convex bodies F1,..., Fn. When we receive Ft, we are required to move inside Ft. Our goal is to minimize the total distance traveled. This fundamental onli ...

We prove that Hausel’s formula for the number of rational points of a Nakajima quiver variety over a finite field also holds in a suitable localization of the Grothendieck ring of varieties. In order to generalize the arithmetic harmonic analysis in his pr ...
