Let $E/\mathbb Q$ be an elliptic curve and for each prime $p$, let $N_p$ denote the number of points of $E$ modulo $p$. The original version of the conjecture of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer asserts that $\prod \limits _{p \leq x} \frac{N_p}{p} \sim C (\log x) ^{\text{rank}(E(\mathbb Q))}$ as $x \to \infty$. In this paper, we formulate a similar conjectural asymptotic for smooth projective curves of genus at least 2, in which the contributions to the conjectured asymptotic come not only from the rank of the Jacobian but also from the Sato--Tate group of the curve. The key analytic input in formulating our conjecture is a conjecture due to Kurokawa (2012) on the convergence of Euler products of entire $L$-functions on the critical line. We also provide some numerical evidence for our conjecture in various cases.
Let $K$ be a number field with ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$, and let $A,B,C \in \mathcal{O}_K \setminus\{0\}$. Denote by $S_K'$ the set of prime ideals of $\mathcal{O}_K$ dividing $2ABC$. Assuming two standard conjectures concerning the modularity of mod-$p$ Galois representations and the Eichler-Shimura correspond...
Let $y^2 = f(x,T)$ be a hyperelliptic curve of genus $g\geq 1$, defined over $\mathbb{Q}(T)$. We prove the existence of infinitely many imaginary hyperelliptic curves with a fixed genus $g$ having a certain rank for $5\leq r\leq 4g+2$, and a similar result for real hyperelliptic curves with a fixed genus $g$ having a c...

In 1987, Elkies proved the striking result that every elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ has infinitely many supersingular primes. Motivated by this theorem and its connection with the Lang-Trotter conjecture, we study the analogous problem for Frobenius fields of elliptic curves. For certain families of non-CM elliptic...
In this second chapter of the $\textit{Arithmetic of critical values}$ series (ACV), we study certain double covers $E_f\to\mathbb{P}^1$ whose branch locus coincides with that of a quartic polynomial $f$. We give a direct proof of the fact, already shown non-constructively in ACV I, that the elliptic curves $E_f$ admit...
Let $k=\mathbb F_q$. We classify, up to two-sided $k$-M\"obius equivalence, all separable indecomposable tame exceptional maps $\mathbf P^1_k\to\mathbf P^1_k$ whose geometric Galois closure has genus one. The resulting arithmetic fixed-field forms are encoded by Frobenius-stable affine elliptic quotient data recovered...
For $n\geq 4$, let $T_n$ be the rank-3 matroid on $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$ whose bases are the three-element non-zero-sum subsets. Let $X_1(n)^\circ$ denote the open subscheme of the modular curve $X_1(n)$ obtained by removing the cusps corresponding to reducible N\'eron polygons. For $n \geq 10$, we give a purely alge...
