In this paper, we present a solution to the problem of the analytic classification of germs of plane curves with several irreducible components. Our algebraic approach follows precursive ideas of Oscar Zariski and as a subproduct allow us…
The problem of constructing or characterizing strongly regular Cayley graphs (or equivalently, regular partial difference sets) has garnered significant attention over the past half-century. In 2003, Miklavi\v{c} and Poto\v{c}nik [European…
Mumford showed that Schottky subgroups of $PGL(2,K)$ give rise to certain curves, now called Mumford curves, over a non-Archimedean field K. Such curves are foundational to subjects dealing with non-Archimedean varieties, including…
Let $\pi : Z \to X$ be Galois cover of smooth projective curves with Galois group $W$ a Weyl group of a simple Lie group $G$. For a dominant weight $\lambda$, we consider the intermediate curve $Y_\lambda= Z/\Stab(\lambda)$. One can realise…
We survey old and new results about the cohomology of the moduli space $A_g$ of principally polarized abelian varieties of genus $g$ and its compactifications. The main emphasis lies on the computation of the cohomology for small genus and…
We describe an efficient algorithm which, given a principally polarized (p.p.) abelian surface $A$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ with geometric endomorphism ring equal to $\mathbb{Z}$, computes all the other p.p. abelian surfaces over $\mathbb{Q}$ that…
In 2012, Zilber used model-theoretic techniques to show that a curve of high genus over an algebraically closed field is determined by its Jacobian (viewed only as an abstract group with a distinguished subset for an image of the curve). In…
We survey the geometry of the theta divisor and discuss various loci of principally polarized abelian varieties (ppav) defined by imposing conditions on its singularities. The loci defined in this way include the (generalized)…
This book aims to provide a brief overview of recent advancements in the theory of inverse problems for stochastic partial differential equations. In order to keep the content concise, we will only discuss the inverse problems of two…
We give a generalization of the method of "Elliptic Curve Chabauty" to higher genus curves and their Jacobians. This method can sometimes be used in conjunction with covering techniques and a modified version of the Mordell-Weil sieve to…
It is often the case that a Selmer group of an abelian variety and a group related to an ideal class group can both be naturally embedded into the same cohomology group. One hopes to compute one from the other by finding how close each is…
A quantum integrable model related to $U_q(\hat{sl}(N))$ is considered. A reduced model is introduced which allows interpretation in terms of quantized affine Jacobi variety. Closed commutation relations for observables of reduced model are…
This paper is concerned with the complexity and stability of arithmetic operations in the jacobian variety of curves over the field of complex numbers, as the genus grows to infinity. We focus on modular curves. Efficient and stable…
An increasingly important area of interest for mathematicians is the study of Abelian differentials. This growing interest can be attributed to the interdisciplinary role this subject plays in modern mathematics, as various problems of…
In sub-Riemannian geometry the coefficients of the Jacobi equation define curvature-like invariants. We show that these coefficients can be interpreted as the curvature of a canonical Ehresmann connection associated to the metric, first…
We find explicit equations for two-coverings of Jacobians of genus two curves over an arbitrary ground field of characteristic different from two.
A simply laced Dynkin diagram gives rise to a family of curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ and a coregular representation, using deformations of simple singularities and Vinberg theory respectively. Thorne has conjectured and partially proven a…
We prove that the generic point of a Hilbert modular four-fold is not a Jacobian. The proof uses degeneration techniques and is independent of properties of the mapping class group used in preceding papers on locally symmetric subvarieties…
We study the degenerations of intermediate Jacobians by means of log geometry. We extend the family of intermediate Jacobians over a punctured disc to a "log intermediate Jacobian" over a disc.
Based on the Matsusaka-Ran criterion we give a criterion to characterize when a principal polarized abelian variety is a Jacobian by the existence of Picard bundles.
