We classify, up to isomorphism, maximal curves covered by the Hermitian curve \mathcal H by a prime degree Galois covering. We also compute the genus of maximal curves obtained by the quotient of \mathcal H by several automorphisms groups.…

In positive characteristic, algebraic curves can have many more automorphisms than expected from the classical Hurwitz's bound. There even exist algebraic curves of arbitrary high genus g with more than 16g^4 automorphisms. It has been…

In this article we explicitly determine the Weierstrass semigroup at any point and the full automorphism group of a known $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$-maximal curve $\mathcal{X}_3$ having the third largest genus. This curve arises as a Galois…

We construct the Seiberg-Witten curve for the E-string theory in six-dimensions. The curve is expressed in terms of affine E_8 characters up to level 6 and is determined by using the mirror-type transformation so that it reproduces the…

Given a natural number k and an orientable surface S of finite type, define the k-curve graph to be the graph with vertices corresponding to isotopy classes of essential simple closed curves on S and with edges corresponding to pairs of…

We discuss some topological aspects of the Riemann-Hilbert transmission problem and Riemann-Hilbert monodromy problem on Riemann surfaces. In particular, we describe the construction of a holomorphic vector bundle starting from the given…

Let ${\mathcal M}_g$ be the moduli space of compact connected Riemann surfaces of genus $g\geq 2$ and let $\widehat{{\mathcal M}_g}$ be its Deligne-Mumford compactification, which is stratified by the topological type of the stable Riemann…

The paper develops the fundamentals of quaternionic holomorphic curve theory. The holomorphic functions in this theory are conformal maps from a Riemann surface into the 4-sphere, i.e., the quaternionic projective line. Basic results such…

We look for Riemann surfaces whose automorphism group acts transitively on the Weierstrass points. We concentrate on hyperelliptic surfaces, surfaces with PSL(2, q) as automorphism group, Platonic surfaces and Fermat curves.

We describe the commuting graph of a Rees matrix semigroup over a group and investigate its properties: diameter, clique number, girth, chromatic number and knit degree. The maximum size of a commutative subsemigroup of a Rees matrix…

A geometric algorithm is introduced for finding a symplectic basis of the first integral homology group of a compact Riemann surface, which is a $p$-cyclic covering of ${\mathbb C} P^1$ branched over 3 points. The algorithm yields a…

Ein, Niu and Park showed in [ENP20] that if the degree of the line bundle $L$ on a curve of genus $g$ is at least $2g+2k+1$, the $k$-th secant variety of the curve via the embedding defined by the complete linear system of $L$ is normal,…

In this article we study compact Riemann surfaces with a non-large group of automorphisms of maximal order; namely, compact Riemann surfaces of genus $g$ with a group of automorphisms of order $4g-4.$ Under the assumption that $g-1$ is…

We find defining equations for the Shimura curve of discriminant 15 over Z[1/15]. We then determine the graded ring of automorphic forms over the 2-adic integers, as well as the higher cohomology. We apply this to calculate the homotopy…

For each group $G$, $(|G| > 2)$ \, which acts as a full automorphism group on a genus 3 hyperelliptic curve, we determine the family of curves which have 2-Weierstrass points. Such families of curves are explicitly determined in terms of…

We establish a rigidity phenomenon for a family of intermediate covers of the Skabelund curve over $\mathbb{F}_{q^4}$. The Skabelund curve, introduced by D.~Skabelund as a cyclic cover of the Suzuki curve, is a maximal curve with a large…

We investigate the monodromy of the Lax connection for classical IIB superstrings on AdS_5xS^5. For any solution of the equations of motion we derive a spectral curve of degree 4+4. The curve consists purely of conserved quantities, all…

Higher rank Brill-Noether theory is completely known for curves of genus $\leq 3$. In this paper, we investigate the theory for curves of genus 4. Some of our results apply to curves of arbitrary genus.

We study the $\mu _N$-gerbe of curves of genus $g$ with an order $N$ automorphism, and explore what corresponding $H^2$-cohomology classes the components of this stack can have. In particular, we look at curves whose quotients by the order…

For each integer $D \geq 5$ with $D \equiv 0$ or $1 \bmod 4$, the Weierstrass curve $W_D$ is an algebraic curve and a finite volume hyperbolic orbifold which admits an algebraic and isometric immersion into the moduli space of genus two…
