Doubly isogenous curves of genus two with a rational action of D6D_6

This paper investigates an unexpected abundance of doubly isogenous genus 2 curves with D6D_6 automorphism groups over finite fields, leading to the surprising construction of a global example over a number field, a theoretical limit on such instances via the Zilber–Pink conjecture, and potential applications in deterministic polynomial-time polynomial factorization.

On the structure of the Bloch--Kato Selmer groups of modular forms over anticyclotomic Zp\mathbf{Z}_p-towers

This paper establishes that under the generalized Heegner hypothesis and specific local conditions, the Pontryagin dual of the Bloch--Kato Selmer group for a modular form over an anticyclotomic Zp\mathbf{Z}_p-extension is free over the Iwasawa algebra, implying the vanishing of the associated Shafarevich--Tate groups and generalizing previous results on elliptic curves to both ordinary and non-ordinary settings.

Non-vanishing for cubic Hecke LL-functions

This paper proves unconditionally that a positive proportion of cubic Hecke LL-functions over the Eisenstein field do not vanish at the central point by establishing a new asymptotic formula for the mollified second moment, a result that overcomes the lack of a perfectly orthogonal large sieve bound in this unitary family through novel applications of Patterson's theta function, Heath-Brown's sieve, and a new Lindelöf-on-average bound.

The dual complex of M1,n(Pr,d)\mathcal{M}_{1,n}(\mathbb{P}^r,d) via the geometry of the Vakil--Zinger moduli space

This paper explicitly determines the dual boundary complexes of normal crossings compactifications for the moduli spaces of maps Mg,n(Pr,d)\mathcal{M}_{g,n}(\mathbb{P}^r,d) with g=0g=0 and g=1g=1, identifying them as moduli spaces of decorated metric graphs and proving their contractibility under specific conditions by analyzing the boundary strata of the Vakil--Zinger desingularization.
