Modularity of Calabi-Yau varieties
In this paper we discuss recent progress on the modularity of Calabi-Yau
varieties. We focus mostly on the case of surfaces and threefolds. We will also
discuss some progress on the structure of the L-function in connection with
mirror symmetry. Finally, we address some questions and open problems.Comment: Further references adde
Model theory of special subvarieties and Schanuel-type conjectures
We use the language and tools available in model theory to redefine and
clarify the rather involved notion of a {\em special subvariety} known from the
theory of Shimura varieties (mixed and pure)
