In this paper, we investigate Weng zeta functions associated with curves of genus 2 over finite fields. Building upon Weng's framework for non-abelian zeta functions, we establish that, as the rank n tends to infinity, the Riemann…
We prove that for any pair of integers 0\leq r\leq g such that g\geq 3 or r>0, there exists a (hyper)elliptic curve C over F_2 of genus g and 2-rank r whose automorphism group consists of only identity and the (hyper)elliptic involution. As…
We consider height functions on symmetric spaces $M\cong G/K$ embedded in the associated matrix Lie group $G$. In particular we study the relationship between the critical sets of the height function on $G$ and its restriction to $M$. Also…
We classify the automorphic Lie algebras of equivariant maps from a complex torus to $\mathfrak{sl}_2(\mathbb{C})$. For each case we compute a basis in a normal form. The automorphic Lie algebras correspond precisely to two disjoint…
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…
A section K on a genus g canonical curve C is identified as the key tool to prove new results on the geometry of the singular locus Theta_s of the theta divisor. The K divisor is characterized by the condition of linear dependence of a set…
It is well-known that a complete Riemannian manifold M which is locally isometric to a symmetric space is covered by a symmetric space. Here we prove that a discrete version of this property (called local to global rigidity) holds for a…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field of order $q=p^h$ with $p>2$ prime and $h>1$, and let $\mathbb{F}_{\bar{q}}$ be a subfield of $\mathbb{F}_q$. From any two $\bar{q}$-linearized polynomials $L_1,L_2 \in \overline{\mathbb{F}}_q[T]$ of…
We show that two smooth projective curves C_1 and C_2 of genus g which have isomorphic symmetric products are isomorphic unless g=2. This extends a theorem of Martens.
Let G be a finite group, and $g \geq 2$. We study the locus of genus g curves that admit a G-action of given type, and inclusions between such loci. We use this to study the locus of genus g curves with prescribed automorphism group G. We…
Let $G$ be a compact connected semisimple Lie group. We extend the techniques of Weinstein [W] to give a construction in group cohomology of symplectic forms $\omega$ on \lq twisted' moduli spaces of representations of the fundamental group…
A ladder structure of operators is presented for the associated Legendre polynomials and the spherical harmonics showing that both belong to the same irreducible representation of so(3,2). As both are also bases of square-integrable…
Let $\L_g^G$ denote the locus of hyperelliptic curves of genus $g$ whose automorphism group contains a subgroup isomorphic to $G$. We study spaces $\L_g^G$ for $G \iso \Z_n, \Z_2{\o}\Z_n, \Z_2{\o}A_4$, or $SL_2(3)$. We show that for $G \iso…
Electromagnetism can be generalized to Yang-Mills theory by replacing the group U(1)$ by a nonabelian Lie group. This raises the question of whether one can similarly generalize 2-form electromagnetism to a kind of "higher-dimensional…
Let $G$ be a semisimple complex Lie group with a Borel subgroup $B$. Let $X=G/B$ be the flag manifold of $G$. Let $C=P^1\ni\infty$ be the projective line. Let $\alpha\in H_2(X,{\Bbb Z})$. The moduli space of $G$-monopoles of topological…
We show that the geometry associated to certain non-split sharply 2-transitive groups does not contain a proper projective plane. For a sharply 2-transitive group of finite Morley rank we improve known rank inequalities for this geometry…
Given a cubic curve $C$ over a number field, we consider the K3 surface $Y_C$ constructed as the minimal desingularisation of the quotient of $C \times C$ by an automorphism of order 3. We relate the transcendental Brauer groups of $Y_C$…
Let G be a complex semi-simple group, and X a compact Riemann surface. The moduli space of principal G-bundles on X, and in particular the holomorphic line bundles on this space and their global sections, play an important role in the…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve of genus $g \geq 3$, and let $G$ be a nontrivial connected reductive affine algebraic group over $\mathbb{C}$. Examining the moduli spaces of regularly stable $G$-Higgs bundles and holomorphic…
I examine the Generalized K$\ddot{a}$hler geometry of classical $N=(2,2)$ superconformal WZW model on a compact group and relate the right-moving and left-moving Kac-Moody superalgebra currents to the Generalized K$\ddot{a}$hler geometry…
