In a previous joint article with F. Abu Salem, we gave efficient algorithms for Jacobian group arithmetic of "typical" divisor classes on C_{3,4} curves, improving on similar results by other authors. At that time, we could only state that…

We establish a global Torelli theorem for the complete family of Calabi-Yau threefolds arising from cyclic triple covers of $\mathbb P^3$ branched along stable hyperplane arrangements.

Let $V$ be an affine algebraic variety, and let $p\in V$ be a singular point. For a regular function $g$ on $V$ such that $g(p)=0$ and for a positive integer $n$, we consider the cyclic covering $\phi_n\: V_n \to V$ of degree $n$ branched…

Cyclic polytopes have been studied since at least the early last century by Caratheodory and others.A generalization is a construction of a class of polytopes such that the polytopes have some of their properties.The best known example is…

The definition of a non-trivial space of generalized functions of a complex variable allowing to consider derivatives of continuous functions is a non-obvious task, e.g. because of Morera theorem, because distributional Cauchy-Riemann…

In this paper, we give Thomae type formula for \KK surfaces $\cS$ given by double covers of the projective plane branching along six lines. This formula gives relations between theta constants on the bounded symmetric domain of type…

We prove results generalizing the classical Riemann Singularity Theorem to the case of integral, singular curves. The main result is a computation of the multiplicity of the theta divisor of an integral, nodal curve at an arbitrary point.…

We study several subseries of the space of second order theta functions on the Jacobian of a non-hyperelliptic curve. In particular, we are interested in the subseries P\Gamma_{00} consisting of 2theta-divisors having multiplicity at least…

We introduce deformation theoretic methods for determining when a curve $X$ in a non-hyperelliptic jacobian $JC$ will deform with $JC$ to a non-jacobian. We apply these methods to a particular class of curves in symmetric powers $C^{(e)}$…

Let $\eta: C_{f,N}\to \mathbb{P}^1$ be a cyclic cover of $\mathbb{P}^1$ of degree $N$ which is totally and tamely ramified for all the ramification points. We determine the group of fixed points of the cyclic group $\mathbf{mu}_N\cong…

We extend the notion of a tame covering of a pair (X,D) where X is a regular scheme and D is a normal crossing divisor (cf. SGA1), to pairs (X,Y) where X is an arbitrary scheme and Y is a closed subset in X. We show that the abelianized…

In this paper we prove a strengthening of the generic vanishing result in characteristic $p>0$ given in [HP16]. As a consequence of this result, we show that irreducible $\Theta$ divisors are strongly F-regular and we prove a related result…

In the theory of algebraic function fields and their applications to the information theory, the Riemann-Roch theorem plays a fundamental role. But its use, delicate in general, is efficient and practical for applications especially in the…

We prove new exact formulas for the generalized sum-of-divisors functions, $\sigma_{\alpha}(x) := \sum_{d|x} d^{\alpha}$. The formulas for $\sigma_{\alpha}(x)$ when $\alpha \in \mathbb{C}$ is fixed and $x \geq 1$ involves a finite sum over…

This paper is devoted to the classification of irregular surfaces of general type with $p_g=q=2$ and non birational bicanonical map. The main result is that, if $S$ is such a surface and if $S$ is minimal with no pencil of curves of genus…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve over a field $k$ with an action of a finite group $G$. A well-known result of Chevalley and Weil describes the $k[G]$-module structure of cohomologies of $X$ in the case when the characteristic of $k$…

We study universal families of stable genus two curves with level structure. Among other things, it is shown that the (1,1) part is spanned by divisor classes, and that there are no cycles of type (2,2) in the third cohomology of the first…

We show that Kov\'acs' result on the cone of curves of a K3 surface generalizes to any projective irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifold $X$. In particular, we show that if $\rho(X)\geq 3$, the pseudo-effective cone…

The object of study is the group of units O^\ast(X) in the coordinate ring of a normal affine variety X over an algebraically closed field k. Methods of Galois cohomology are applied to those varieties that can be presented as a finite…

We study the generalized theta lifting between the double covers of split special orthogonal groups, which uses the non-minimal theta representations constructed by Bump, Friedberg and Ginzburg. We focus on the theta liftings of non-generic…
