Under the Riemann Hypothesis for Dirichlet [Formula: see text]-functions, we improve on the error term in a smoothed version of an estimate for the density of elliptic curves with square-free [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the discriminant, by the author and Browning [Inhomogeneous cubic congruences and rational points on Del Pezzo surfaces, J. Reine Angew. Math. 680 (2013) 69–151]. To achieve this improvement, we elaborate on our methods for counting weighted solutions of inhomogeneous cubic congruences to powerful moduli. The novelty lies in going a step further in the explicit evaluation of complete exponential sums and saving a factor by averaging over the moduli.

AbstractWe classify generically transitive actions of semi-direct products on ℙ2. Motivated by the program to study the distribution of rational points on del Pezzo surfaces (Manin's conjecture), we determine all (possibly singular) del Pezzo surfaces that are equivariant compactifications of homogeneous spaces for semi-direct products .

AbstractWe construct explicit examples of E8 lattices occurring in arithmetic for which the natural Galois action is equal to the full group of automorphisms of the lattice, i.e., the Weyl group of E8. In particular, we give explicit elliptic curves over Q(t) whose Mordell-Weil lattices are isomorphic to E8 and have maximal Galois action.Our main objects of study are del Pezzo surfaces of degree 1 over number fields. The geometric Picard group, considered as a lattice via the negative of the intersection pairing, contains a sublattice isomorphic to E8. We construct examples of such surfaces for which the action of Galois on the geometric Picard group is maximal.

AbstractLet$f(z)=z^5+az^3+bz^2+cz+d \in \Z[z]$and let us consider a del Pezzo surface of degree one given by the equation$\cal{E}_{f}\,{:}\,x^2-y^3-f(z)=0$. In this paper we prove that if the set of rational points on the curveEa,b:Y2=X3+ 135(2a−15)X−1350(5a+ 2b− 26) is infinite then the set of rational points on the surface ϵfis dense in the Zariski topology.

Under the Riemann Hypothesis, we improve the error term in the asymptotic formula related to the counting lattice problem studied in a first part of this work. The improvement comes from the use of Weyl’s bound for exponential sums of polynomials and a device due to Popov allowing us to get an improved main term in the sums of certain fractional parts of polynomials.
