In this paper we consider type-preserving representations of the fundamental group of the three--holed projective plane into $\mathrm{PGL}(2, \R) =\mathrm{Isom}(\HH^2)$ and study the connected components with non-maximal euler class. We…

We find all possible isomorphisms and 3-birational maps (i.e., birational maps which induce an isomorphism between open subsets whose respective complements have codimension at least 3) between moduli spaces of parabolic vector bundles with…

We study complex analytic (possibly singular) projective connections on the plane. We characterize some of them in terms of their families of integral curves. We also give a beginning of classification of second order odes polynomial in the…

It has been conjectured that every algebraic curve may be defined either over its field of moduli or over an extension of degree two of it. In this paper we provide a negative answer to it by giving examples of hyperelliptic curves which…

Convex hexagons that can tile the plane have been classified into three types. For the generic cases (not necessarily convex) of the three types and two other special cases, we classify tilings of the plane under the assumption that all…

We construct 9-parameter and 13-parameter dynamical systems of the plane which map bi-quadratic curves to other bi-quadratic curves and return to the original curve after two iterations. These generalize the QRT maps which map each such…

In this paper we study noncommutative plane curves, i.e. non-commutative k-algebras for which the 1-dimensional simple modules form a plane curve. We study extensions of simple modules and we try to enlighten the completion problem, i.e.…

We initiate the study of a class of real plane algebraic curves which we call expressive. These are the curves whose defining polynomial has the smallest number of critical points allowed by the topology of the set of real points of a…

In this paper we study the geometry of the Severi varieties parametrizing curves on the rational ruled surface $\fn$. We compute the number of such curves through the appropriate number of fixed general points on $\fn$, and the number of…

There is a modular curve X'(6) of level 6 defined over Q whose Q-rational points correspond to j-invariants of elliptic curves E over Q for which Q(E[2]) is a subfield of Q(E[3]). In this note we characterize the j-invariants of elliptic…

We complete the solution of the relative class number one problem for function fields of curves over finite fields. Using work from two earlier papers, this reduces to finding all function fields of genus 6 or 7 over $\mathbb{F}_2$ with one…

We enumerate the singular algebraic curves in a complete linear system on a smooth projective surface. The system must be suitably ample in a rather precise sense. The curves may have up to eight nodes, or a triple point of a given type and…

In order to study projections of smooth curves, we introduce multifiltrations obtained by combining flags of osculating spaces. We classify all configurations of singularities occurring for a projection of a smooth curve embedded by a…

We use a numerical method to compute a database of three-point branched covers of the complex projective line of small degree. We report on some interesting features of this data set, including issues of descent.

We study plane algebraic curves defined over a field k of arbitrary characteristic as coverings of the the projective line and the problem of enumerating branched coverings of $\mathbb{P}^{1}$ by using combinatorial methods.

The paper gives topological as well as rigid isotopy classification of smooth irreducible algebraic curves in the real projective 3-space for the case when the degree of the curve is at most six and its genus is at most one.

Let k be a field of characteristic different from 2. There can be an obstruction for an indecomposable principally polarized abelian threefold (A,a) over k to be a Jacobian over k. It can be computed in terms of the rationality of the…

Exceptional Belyi covering is a connected Belyi covering uniquely determined by its ramification scheme or the respective dessin d'enfant. We focus on rational exceptional Belyi coverings of compact Riemann surfaces of genus 0. Well known…

The notion of constant cycle curves on K3 surfaces is introduced. These are curves that do not contribute to the Chow group of the ambient K3 surface. Rational curves are the most prominent examples. We show that constant cycle curves…

Let $G$ be a subgroup of the three dimensional projective group $\mathrm{PGL}(3,q)$ defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of order $q$, viewed as a subgroup of $\mathrm{PGL}(3,K)$ where $K$ is an algebraic closure of $\mathbb{F}_q$.…
