Bounded elementary generation of SL_2: nearly the end

Let $\mathcal{O}_S$ be the ring of $S$-integers of a global field $K$ of any characteristic, where $S$ is a finite set of valuations of $K$ (and $S$ contains all of the archimedean valuations if the characteristic is zero). We prove that if $|S| \ge 2$, then every unimodular $(2 \times 2)$-matrix over $\mathcal{O}_S$ is a product of $\leq 7$ elementary matrices. This nearly optimal bound essentially concludes the investigation of bounded elementary generation of $SL_2(\mathcal{O}_S)$ started over 50 years ago.

Brauer-Siegel theorem for elliptic surfaces

We consider higher-dimensional analogues of the classical Brauer-Siegel theorem focusing on the case of abelian varieties over global function fields. We prove such an analogue in the case of constant families of elliptic curves and abelian varieties.
