In this article, we show that in each of four standard families of hyperelliptic curves, there is a density-$1$ subset of members with the property that their Jacobians have adelic Galois representation with image as large as possible. This…

We give a practical method for computing the 3-torsion subgroup of the Jacobian of a genus 3 hyperelliptic curve. We define a scheme for the 3-torsion points of the Jacobian and use complex approximations, homotopy continuation and lattice…

We describe an algorithm that provably computes the rational torsion subgroup of the Jacobian of a curve without relying on height bounds. Instead, the strategy is to find upper bounds for the torsion subgroup using reduction modulo primes,…

We consider the identity component of the Sato-Tate group of the Jacobian of curves of the form $$C_1\colon y^2=x^{2g+2}+c, C_2\colon y^2=x^{2g+1}+cx, C_3\colon y^2=x^{2g+1} +c,$$ where $g$ is the genus of the curve and $c\in\mathbb Q^*$ is…

We give a formula for the component at p of the p-adic height pairing of a divisor of degree 0 on a hyperelliptic curve. We use this to give a Chabauty-like method for finding p-adic approximations to p-integral points on such curves when…

Let $C$ be a genus $2$ hyperelliptic curve over a number field $K$, with a Weierstrass point $\infty$ at infinity, let $J$ be its Jacobian, let $\Theta$ be the theta divisor with respect to $\infty$, and let $p$ be any prime number. We give…

In this paper, we describe the construction of superelliptic curves with a rational point of prescribed order on their jacobians. The construction is based on Hensel's Lemma and produces for a given integer $N$ a superelliptic curve of…

We show that the Jacobians of prestable curves over toroidal varieties always admit N\'eron models. These models are rarely quasi-compact or separated, but we also give a complete classification of quasi-compact separated group-models of…

We obtain explicit, computable upper bounds for the Neron-Tate height of rational points on curves of genus at least two over number fields. The bounds use automorphisms acting on the Mordell-Weil lattice of the Jacobian. We prove an…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over a number field $K$ with fixed non-archimedean absolute value $v$ of split-multiplicative reduction, and let $f$ be an associated Latt\`es map. Baker proved in 2003 that the N\'eron-Tate height on…
