Abstract. The goal of this paper is to present computations investigating the "functorial" properties of Stark units, that is, how specific roots of Stark units from cert...
We discuss how one can extend to hypersurfaces with isolated singularities the methods of Gerkmann, Abbott-Kedlaya-Roe and Lauder for counting points on smooth hypersurfaces.
The theory of 4-descent on elliptic curves has been developed in the PhD theses of Siksek [18], Womack [21] and Stamminger [20]. Prompted by our use of 4-descent in the search for ...
