We show how for every integer n one can explicitly construct n distinct plane quartics and one hyperelliptic curve over the complex numbers all of whose Jacobians are isomorphic to one another as abelian varieties without polarization. When…

We study the group of automorphisms of the affine plane preserving some given curve, over any field. The group is proven to be algebraic, except in the case where the curve is a bunch of parallel lines. Moreover, a classification of the…

We study tori attached to the fundamental groups of plane curves with arbitrary singularities. These tori provide complete information about homology of finite abelian covers of the plane branched along the curve. We calculate these tori in…

In this paper we begin to study curves on a weighted projective plane with one trivial weight, ${\mathbb P}(1,m,n)$, by determining the genus of curves of Fermat type. These are curves defined by a ``homogeneous'' polynomial analagous to…

Let C be a complex curve of genus g, let J(C) be its Jacobian and let R(C) be its tautological ring, that is, the group of algebraic cycles modulo algebraic equivalence. We study the algebraic structure of R(C). In particular, we give a…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a plane singular curve defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. The linear system of plane curves of a given degree passing through the singularities of $\cF$ provides potentially good bounds for the number of points…

We look at periodic Jacobi matrices on trees. We provide upper and lower bounds on the gap of such operators analogous to the well known gap in the spectrum of the Laplacian on the upper half-plane with hyperbolic metric. We make some…

We give regular models for modular curves associated with (normalizer of) split and non-split Cartan subgroups of ${\mathrm{GL}}_2 ({\mathbb F}_p )$ (for $p$ any prime, $p\ge 5$). We then compute the group of connected components of the…

For affine algebraic plane curves we reduce a calculation of its invariants to calculation of the intersection of kernels of some derivations.

We discuss the principle tools and results and state a few open problems concerning the classification and topology of plane sextics and trigonal curves in ruled surfaces.

We consider a finite analytic morphism $\varphi =(f,g)$ defined from a complex analytic normal surface $(Z,z)$ to ${\mathbb C}^2$. We describe the topology of the image by $\varphi$ of a reduced curve on $(Z,z)$ by means of iterated pencils…

Let $X$ be a smooth geometrically connected projective curve over the field of fractions of a discrete valuation ring $R$, and $\mathfrak{m}$ a modulus on $X$, given by a closed subscheme of $X$ which is geometrically reduced. The…

Let R be a commutative ring with 1. For every homogeneous polynomial f(X_0,X_1,X_2) in R[X_0,X_1,X_2] of degree d <= 25, we find a explicit linear Pfaffian R-representation of f. We describe an empirical method that leads us to find such…

Symmetric Jacobi matrices on one sided homogeneous trees are studied. Essential selfadjointness of these matrices turns out to depend on the structure of the tree. If a tree has one end and infinitely many origin points the matrix is always…

Let C be a smooth projective curve over a discretely valued field K, defined by an affine equation f(x,y)=0. We construct a model of C over the ring of integers of K using a toroidal embedding associated to the Newton polygon of f. We show…

For a model of molecular evolution to be useful for phylogenetic inference, the topology of evolutionary trees must be identifiable. That is, from a joint distribution the model predicts, it must be possible to recover the tree parameter.…

We show how to obtain the Zariski invariant of a plane branch employing the contact order or the intersection multiplicity with elements in a particular family of curves and we present some consequences of this result.

We describe all the trees with the property that the corresponding edge ideal of their line graph has a linear resolution. As a consequence, we give a complete characterization of those trees $T$ for which the line graph $L(T)$ is…

Let $f$ be a meromorphic function with simply connected domain $G\subset\mathbb{C}$, and let $\Gamma\subset\mathbb{C}$ be a smooth Jordan curve. We call a component of $f^{-1}(\Gamma)$ in $G$ a $\Gamma$-$pseudo$-$lemniscate$ of $f$. In this…

Let $C/\mathbb{Q}$ be a hyperelliptic curve with an affine model of the form $y^2=x^p+a$. We explicitly determine the root number of the Jacobian of $C$, with particular focus on the local root number at $p$ where $C$ has wild ramification.
