Explicit Vologodsky Integration for Hyperelliptic Curves

Number Theory 2021-12-16 v2 Algebraic Geometry

Abstract

Vologodsky's theory of pp-adic integration plays a central role in computing several interesting invariants in arithmetic geometry. In contrast with the theory developed by Coleman, it has the advantage of being insensitive to the reduction type at pp. Building on recent work of Besser and Zerbes, we describe an algorithm for computing Vologodsky integrals on bad reduction hyperelliptic curves. This extends previous joint work with Katz to all meromorphic differential forms. We illustrate our algorithm with numerical examples computed in Sage.
