For a given conic bundle X over a curve C defined over 𝔽q, we count irreducible branch covers of C in X of degree d and height e ≫ 1. As a special case, we get the number of algebraic numbers of degree d and height e over the function field 𝔽q(C).

Roughly speaking, a conic bundle is a surface, fibered over a curve, such that the fibers are conics (not necessarily smooth). We define stability for conic bundles and construct a moduli space. We prove that (after fixing some invariants) these moduli spaces are irreducible (under some conditions). Conic bundles can be thought of as generalizations of orthogonal bundles on curves. We show that in this particular case our definition of stability agrees with the definition of stability for orthogonal bundles. Finally, in an appendix by I. Mundet i Riera, a Hitchin-Kobayashi correspondence is stated for conic bundles.

Abstract We find a characterization for Fano 4-folds $X$ with Lefschetz defect $\delta _{X}=3$: besides the product of two del Pezzo surfaces, they correspond to varieties admitting a conic bundle structure $f\colon X\to Y$ with $\rho _{X}-\rho _{Y}=3$. Moreover, we observe that all of these varieties are rational. We give the list of all possible targets of such contractions. Combining our results with the classification of toric Fano $4$-folds due to Batyrev and Sato we provide explicit examples of Fano conic bundles from toric $4$-folds with $\delta _{X}=3$.

Algebraic approximation to points in projective spaces offers a new and more flexible approach to algebraic independence theory. When working over the field of algebraic numbers, it leads to open conjectures in higher dimension extending known results in Diophantine approximation. We show here that over the algebraic closure of a function field in one variable, the analog of these conjectures is true. We also derive transfer lemmas which have applications in the study of multiplicity estimates, for example.

AbstractThe study of the S-unit equation for algebraic numbers rests very heavily on Schmidt's Subspace Theorem. Here we prove an effective subspace theorem for the differential function field case, which should be valuable in the proof of results concerning the S-unit equation for function fields. Theorem 1 states that either has a given upper bound where are linearly independent linear forms in the polynomials with coefficients that are formal power series solutions about x = 0 of non-zero differential equations and where Orda denotes the order of vanishing about a regular (finite) point of functions ƒk, i: (k = 1, n; i = 1, n) or lies inside one of a finite number of proper subspaces of (K(x))n. The proof of the theorem is based on the wroskian methods and graded sub-rings of Picard-Vessiot extensions developed by D. V. Chudnovsky and G. V. Chudnovsky in their function field analogues of the Roth and Schmidt theorems. A brief discussion concerning the possibility of a subspace theorem for a product of valuations including the infinite one is also included.

Given a holomorphic conic bundle without sections, we show that the orders of finite groups acting by its fiberwise bimeromorphic transformations are bounded. This provides an analog of a similar result obtained by Bandman and Zarhin for quasi-projective conic bundles.

Let …, αn, (n ≧ 2) be (fixed) multiplicatively independent non zero algebraic numbers and set M(H) = min |β1log α1+…+βn log αn| the minimum taken over all algebraic numbers bgr;1,…βn not all equal to zero, of degrees not exceeding a fixed natural number d0, and heights not exceeding an arbitrary natural number H. Then an important result [1] of Baker states that for every fixed ε > 0 and an explicit constant . It may be remarked that Baker deduces his general result from the special case where βn is fixed to be —1. The following straight forward generalization might be of some interest since it shows that the exponent n+1+ε need not be the best, and that the best exponent obtainable by his method has some chance of being 1 + ε (see the corollary to the Theorem).

Let $X$ be a general conic bundle over the projective plane with branch curve of degree at least 19. We prove that there is no normal projective variety $Y$ that is birational to $X$ and such that some multiple of its anticanonical divisor is effective. We also give such examples for 2-dimensional conic bundles defined over a number field.

We prove that a very general nonsingular conic bundle $X\rightarrow\mathbb{P}^{n-1}$ embedded in a projective vector bundle of rank $3$ over $\mathbb{P}^{n-1}$ is not stably rational if the anti-canonical divisor of $X$ is not ample and $n\geq 3$.

In (10), M. S. Narasimhan and S. Ramanan proved a theorem to the effect that a certain conic bundle associated with a non-singular quadratic complex does not come from a vector bundle ((10), proposition 8·1); a similar topological result was proved in (12). In the course of attempting to extend these results to the singular case, I found that I wanted to use some results on conic bundles which were not readily available in the literature. The object of this note is to give proofs of these results; the work on quadratic complexes is still in progress and the first part will appear shortly (13). A further application will appear in (14).

AbstractWe show that a standard conic bundle over a minimal rational surface is rational and its Jacobian splits as the direct sum of Jacobians of curves if and only if its derived category admits a semiorthogonal decomposition by exceptional objects and the derived categories of those curves. Moreover, such a decomposition gives the splitting of the intermediate Jacobian also when the surface is not minimal.
