Modular Zilber-Pink for geometrically generic varieties

Vahagn Aslanyan, Sebastian Eterović, Guy Fowler

We prove that the modular Zilber--Pink conjecture (in Pink's formulation in terms of unlikely intersections) holds for all subvarieties of for which no proje…

Exponential sums equations and the Exponential Closedness conjecture

Vahagn Aslanyan, Francesco Gallinaro

This is an expository paper aiming to introduce Zilber's Exponential Closedness conjecture to a general audience. Exponential Closedness predicts when (systems of) equations involv…

Complex solutions of polynomial equations on the unit circle

Vahagn Aslanyan

We explore systems of polynomial equations where we seek complex solutions with absolute value 1. Geometrically, this amounts to understanding intersections of algebraic varieties…

Algebraic types in Zilber's exponential field

Vahagn Aslanyan, Jonathan Kirby

We characterise the model-theoretic algebraic closure in Zilber's exponential field. A key step involves showing that certain algebraic varieties have finite intersections with cer…

The mathematical work of Anania Shirakatsi

Vahagn Aslanyan

This paper aims to give a brief account of the mathematical work of the 7th-century Armenian polymath and natural philosopher Anania Shirakatsi. The three sections of Anania's ``Bo…

The Existential Closedness and Zilber-Pink Conjectures

Vahagn Aslanyan

In this paper we survey the history of, and recent developments on, two major conjectures originating in Zilber's model-theoretic work on complex exponentiation -- Existential Clos…

Equations involving the modular -function and its derivatives

Vahagn Aslanyan, Sebastian Eterović, Vincenzo Mantova

We show that for any polynomial , the equation has a Zariski dense set of solutions in the hypersurfac…

Multiplicative relations among differences of singular moduli

Vahagn Aslanyan, Sebastian Eterović, Guy Fowler

Let . We prove that there exist a finite set and finitely many algebraic curves with the following property: if $(x_1, \ldots, x_n, y)…

Independence relations for exponential fields

Vahagn Aslanyan, Robert Henderson, Mark Kamsma +1

We give four different independence relations on any exponential field. Each is a canonical independence relation on a suitable Abstract Elementary Class of exponential fields, sho…

A note on unlikely intersections in Shimura varieties

Vahagn Aslanyan, Christopher Daw

We discuss the relationships between the André-Oort, André-Pink-Zannier, and Mordell-Lang conjectures for Shimura varieties. We then combine the latter with the geometric Zilber-Pi…

A geometric approach to some systems of exponential equations

Vahagn Aslanyan, Jonathan Kirby, Vincenzo Mantova

Zilber's Exponential Algebraic Closedness conjecture (also known as Zilber's Nullstellensatz) gives conditions under which a complex algebraic variety should intersect the graph of…

A closure operator respecting the modular -function

Vahagn Aslanyan, Sebastian Eterović, Jonathan Kirby

We prove some unconditional cases of the Existential Closedness problem for the modular -function. For this, we show that for any finitely generated field we can find a "conveni…

Blurrings of the -function

Vahagn Aslanyan, Jonathan Kirby

Inspired by the idea of blurring the exponential function, we define blurred variants of the -function and its derivatives, where blurring is given by the action of a subgroup o…

Differential Existential Closedness for the -function

Vahagn Aslanyan, Sebastian Eterović, Jonathan Kirby

We prove the Existential Closedness conjecture for the differential equation of the -function and its derivatives. It states that in a differentially closed field certain equati…

Some Remarks on Atypical Intersections

Vahagn Aslanyan

In this paper we show how some known weak forms of the Zilber--Pink conjecture can be strengthened by combining them with the Mordell--Lang conjecture or its variants. We illustrat…

Existentially closed De Morgan algebras

Vahagn Aslanyan

We show that the theory of De Morgan algebras has a model completion and axiomatise it. Then we prove that it is -categorical and describe definable and algebraic closure…

Ax-Schanuel and strong minimality for the -function

Vahagn Aslanyan

Let be a differentially closed field of characteristic with field of constants . In the first part of the paper we explore the connection…

Weak Modular Zilber-Pink with Derivatives

Vahagn Aslanyan

In unpublished notes Pila proposed a Modular Zilber-Pink with Derivatives (MZPD) conjecture, which is a Zilber-Pink type statement for the modular -function and its derivatives.…

Adequate Predimension Inequalities in Differential Fields

Vahagn Aslanyan

In this paper we study predimension inequalities in differential fields and define what it means for such an inequality to be \emph{adequate}. Adequacy was informally introduced by…

Ax-Schanuel type theorems and geometry of strongly minimal sets in differentially closed fields

Vahagn Aslanyan

Let be a differentially closed field. In this paper we explore the connection between Ax-Schanuel type theorems (predimension inequalities) for a differentia…

Ax-Schanuel for Linear Differential Equations

Vahagn Aslanyan

We generalise the exponential Ax-Schanuel theorem to arbitrary linear differential equations with constant coefficients. Using the analysis of the exponential differential equation…
