What this means is that most meeting programs will appear in the No- tices *after* the meeting takes place. However, complete meeting programs will be available on e-MATH about two to three weeks after the abstract deadline. *Remember*, e-MATH is your most comprehensive source for up-to-date meeting information.

  • Balanced Line Bundles on Fano Varieties
    BALANCED LINE BUNDLES ON FANO VARIETIES BRIAN LEHMANN, SHO TANIMOTO, AND YURI TSCHINKEL Abstract. A conjecture of Batyrev and Manin relates arithmetic properties of varieties with ample anticanonical class to geometric invariants; in particular, counting functions defined by metrized ample line bundles and the corresponding asymptotics of rational points of bounded height are interpreted in terms of cones of ef- fective divisors and certain thresholds with respect to these cones. This framework leads to the notion of balanced line bundles, whose counting functions, conjecturally, capture generic distributions of rational points. We investigate balanced line bundles in the con- text of the Minimal Model Program, with special regard to the classification of Fano threefolds. 1. Introduction Let X be a smooth projective variety defined over a number field F and = (L, ) an ample, adelically metrized, line bundle on X. Such lineL bundlesk·k give rise to height functions X(F ) R>0 x → H (x) 7→ L on the set of F -rational points (see, e.g., [CLT01, Section 1.3] for the definitions). A basic result is that the associated counting function arXiv:1409.5901v1 [math.AG] 20 Sep 2014 N(X(F ), , B) := # x X(F ) H (x) B L { ∈ | L ≤ } is finite, for each B R. Conjectures of Manin and Batyrev-Manin concern the asymptotic∈ behavior of N(X, , B), as B , for Fano L → ∞ varieties, i.e., varieties X with ample anticanical class KX . The con- jectures predict that this asymptotic is controlled by the− geometry of X and L [BM90]. More precisely, define the geometric constants a(X, L) = min t R t[L] + [K ] Λ (X) .

  • Rational Points on K3 Surfaces and Derived Equivalence
    RATIONAL POINTS ON K3 SURFACES AND DERIVED EQUIVALENCE BRENDAN HASSETT AND YURI TSCHINKEL The geometry of vector bundles and derived categories on complex K3 surfaces has developed rapidly since Mukai’s seminal work [Muk87]. Many foundational questions have been answered: • the existence of vector bundles and twisted sheaves with pre- scribed invariants; • geometric interpretations of isogenies between K3 surfaces [Orl97, Căl00]; • the global Torelli theorem for holomorphic symplectic manifolds [Ver13, Huy12b]; • the analysis of stability conditions and its implications for bi- rational geometry of moduli spaces of vector bundles and more general objects in the derived category [BMT14, BM14, Bri07]. Given the precision and power of these results, it is natural to seek arithmetic applications of this circle of ideas. Questions about zero cycles on K3 surfaces have attracted the attention of Beauville-Voisin [BV04], Huybrechts [Huy12a], and other authors. Our focus in this note is on rational points over non-closed fields of arithmetic interest. We seek to relate the notion of derived equivalence to arithmetic problems over various fields. Our guiding questions are: Question 1. Let X and Y be K3 surfaces, derived equivalent over a field F . Does the existence/density of rational points of X imply the same for Y ? Given α 2 Br(X), let (X; α) denote the twisted K3 surface associated with α, i.e., if P! X is an étale projective bundle representing α, of relative dimension r − 1 then (X; α) = [P= SLr]: Question 2. Suppose that (X; α) and (Y; β) are derived equivalent over F . Does the existence of a rational point on the former imply the same for the latter? Date: October 8, 2016.

  • Equidistribution in Number Theory, an Introduction NATO Science Series
    Equidistribution in Number Theory, An Introduction NATO Science Series A Series presenting the results of scientific meetings supported under the NATO Science Programme. The Series is published by IOS Press, Amsterdam, and Springer in conjunction with the NATO Public Diplomacy Division Sub-Series I. Life and Behavioural Sciences IOS Press II. Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry Springer III. Computer and Systems Science IOS Press IV. Earth and Environmental Sciences Springer The NATO Science Series continues the series of books published formerly as the NATO ASI Series. The NATO Science Programme offers support for collaboration in civil science between scientists of countries of the Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council. The types of scientific meeting generally supported are “Advanced Study Institutes” and “Advanced Research Workshops”, and the NATO Science Series collects together the results of these meetings. The meetings are co-organized bij scientists from NATO countries and scientists from NATO’s Partner countries – countries of the CIS and Central and Eastern Europe. Advanced Study Institutes are high-level tutorial courses offering in-depth study of latest advances in a field. Advanced Research Workshops are expert meetings aimed at critical assessment of a field, and identification of directions for future action. As a consequence of the restructuring of the NATO Science Programme in 1999, the NATO Science Series was re-organised to the four sub-series noted above.
