The famous Mumford-Tate conjecture asserts that, for every prime number l, Hodge cycles are Q_l linear combinations of Tate cycles, through Artin's comparisons theorems between Betti and étale cohomology. The algebraic Sato-Tate conjecture, introduced by Serre and developed by Banaszak and Kedlaya, is a powerful tool in order to prove new instances of the generalized Sato-Tate conjecture. This previous conjecture is related with the equidistribution of Frobenius traces.Our main goal is to prove that the Mumford-Tate conjecture for an abelian variety A implies the algebraic Sato-Tate conjecture for A. The […]

Étant donné un anneau de valuation V de corps résiduel F et contenant un corps k, et une extension k' de k, on cherche à construire une extension V' de V contenant k', d'idéal maximal engendré par celui de V, et de corps résiduel composé de F et k'. On y parvient notamment si F ou k' est séparable sur k.

Lipschitz geometry is a branch of singularity theory that studies the metric data of a germ of a complex analytic space.I will discuss a new approach to the study of such metric germs, and in particular of an invariant called Lipschitz inner rate, based on the combinatorics of a space of valuations, the so-called non-archimedean link of the singularity. I will describe completely the inner metric structure of a complex surface germ showing that its inner rates both determine and are determined by global geometric data: the topology of the […]

(travail en commun avec Silvain Rideau-Kikuchi)Les imaginaires (c'est-à-dire les quotients définissables) dans la théorie ACVF des corpsalgébriquement clos non-trivialement valués sont classifiés par les sortes “géométriques”.Ceci est un résultat fondamental dû à Haskell, Hrushovski et Macpherson. En utilisantl'approche via la densité des types définissables/invariants, nous donnons une réductiondes imaginaires dans des corps valués henséliens, sous des hypothèses assez générales,aux sortes géométriques et à des imaginaires de RV avec des sortes pour certains espacesvectoriels de dimension finie sur le corps résiduel.

Using subresultants, we modify a recent real-algebraic proof due to Eisermann of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra () to obtain the following quantitative information: in order to prove the for polynomials of degree d, the Intermediate Value Theorem () is requested to hold for real polynomials of degree at most d^2. We also explain that the classical algebraic proof due to Laplace requires for real polynomials of exponential degree. These quantitative results highlight the difference in nature of these two proofs.

Determining all rational points on a curve of genus at least 2 can be difficult. Chabauty's method (1941) is to intersect, for a prime number p, in the p-adic Lie group of p-adic points of the jacobian, the closure of the Mordell-Weil group with the p-adic points of the curve. If the Mordell-Weil rank is less than the genus then this method has never failed. Minhyong Kim's non-abelian Chabauty programme aims to remove the condition on the rank. The simplest case, called quadratic Chabauty, was developed by Balakrishnan, Dogra, Mueller, […]
