Value sets of sparse polynomials [PDF]
We obtain a new lower bound on the size of value set f(F_p) of a sparse polynomial f in F_p[X] over a finite field of p elements when p is prime. This bound is uniform with respect of the degree and depends on some natural arithmetic properties of the ...

The probability that a complete intersection is smooth [PDF]
Given a smooth subscheme of a projective space over a finite field, we compute the probability that its intersection with a fixed number of hypersurface sections of large degree is smooth of the expected dimension.

Curves, dynamical systems and weighted point counting [PDF]
Suppose X is a (smooth projective irreducible algebraic) curve over a finite field k. Counting the number of points on X over all finite field extensions of k will not determine the curve uniquely. Actually, a famous theorem of Tate implies that two such

On the nonexistence of certain curves of genus two [PDF]
We prove that if q is a power of an odd prime then there is no genus-2 curve over F_q whose Jacobian has characteristic polynomial of Frobenius equal to x^4 + (2-2q)x^2 + q^2.

Toward a geometric analogue of Dirichlet's unit theorem [PDF]
In this note, we propose a geometric analogue of Dirichlet's unit theorem on arithmetic varieties, that is, if X is a normal projective variety over a finite field and D is a pseudo-effective Q-Cartier divisor on X, does it follow that D is Q-effective ...

Automorphisms of Drinfeld half-spaces over a finite field [PDF]
We show that the automorphism group of Drinfeld's half-space over a finite field is the projective linear group of the underlying vector space. The proof of this result uses analytic geometry in the sense of Berkovich over the finite field equipped with ...

Rational points on certain hyperelliptic curves over finite fields
Let $K$ be a field, $a, b\in K$ and $ab\neq 0$. Let us consider the polynomials $g_{1}(x)=x^n+ax+b, g_{2}(x)=x^n+ax^2+bx$, where $n$ is a fixed positive integer.

Lattices with exponentially large kissing numbers
We construct a sequence of lattices $\{L_{n_i}\subset \mathbb R^{n_i}\}$ for $n_i\longrightarrow\infty$, with exponentially large kissing numbers, namely, $\log_2\tau(L_{n_i})> 0.0338\cdot n_i -o(n_i)$.

Factorization type probabilities of polynomials with prescribed coefficients over a finite field
Let $f(T)$ be a monic polynomial of degree $d$ with coefficients in a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. Extending earlier results in the literature, but now allowing $(q,2d)>1$, we give a criterion for $f$ to satisfy the following property: for all but $d^2-d-
