In this article we study compact Riemann surfaces of genus $g$ with an automorphism of prime order $g+1.$ The main result provides a classification of such surfaces. In addition, we give a description of them as algebraic curves, determine…

We construct a scattering theory for harmonic one-forms on Riemann surfaces, obtained from boundary value problems involving systems of curves and the jump problem. We obtain an explicit expression for the scattering matrix in terms of…

We classify minimal complex surfaces of general type with $p_g=q=3$. More precisely, we show that such a surface is either the symmetric product of a curve of genus 3 or a free $\Z_2-$quotient of the product of a curve of genus 2 and a…

For each closed orientable surface we introduce a simplical complex with some additional structure which is a version of the complex of curves of this surface adjusted to investigation of its Torelli group. We call this complex the Torelli…

Let $G$ be a simple simply-connected connected linear algebraic group over $\mathbb{C}$. We proved a $2$-birational Torelli theorem for the moduli space of semistable principal $G$-bundles over a smooth curve of genus $\geq 3$, which says…

We study the null compactification of type-IIA-string perturbation theory at finite temperature. We prove a theorem about Riemann surfaces establishing that the moduli spaces of infinite-momentum-frame superstring worldsheets are identical…

We simplify the usual statement of the Torelli theorem for complex Enriques surfaces, by means of a lattice-theoretic trick. This allows easy proofs of several known results, which previously required intricate arithmetic arguments. The…

It is shown, that the mapping class group of a surface of the genus g > 1 admits a faithful representation into the matrix group GL (6g-6, Z). The proof is based on a categorical correspondence between the Riemann surfaces and the so-called…

This is an introduction to the geometry of compact Riemann surfaces, largely following the books Farkas-Kra, Fay, Mumford Tata lectures. 1) Defining Riemann surfaces with atlases of charts, and as locus of solutions of algebraic equations.…

We give a geometric derivation of Schottky's equation in genus four for the period matrices of Riemann surfaces among all period matrices. The equation arises naturally from the singularity theory of the Gauss map on the theta divisor, and…

Let $S_g$ be a closed, oriented surface of genus $g$, and let $\operatorname{Mod}(S_g)$ denote its mapping class group. The Torelli group $\mathcal{I}_g$ is the subgroup of $\operatorname{Mod}(S_g)$ consisting of mapping classes that act…

We study framed translation surfaces corresponding to meromorphic differentials on compact Riemann surfaces, for which a horizontal separatrix is marked for each pole or zero. Such geometric structures naturally appear when studying flat…

We introduce machinery to allow ``cut-and-paste''-style inductive arguments in the Torelli subgroup of the mapping class group. In the past these arguments have been problematic because restricting the Torelli group to subsurfaces gives…

Let ${\mathcal B}_g(r)$ be the moduli space of triples of the form $(X,\, K^{1/2}_X,\, F)$, where $X$ is a compact connected Riemann surface of genus $g$, with $g\, \geq\, 2$, $K^{1/2}_X$ is a theta characteristic on $X$, and $F$ is a…

In this paper we continue our study on the moduli spaces of flat G-bundles, for any semi-simple Lie group G, over a Riemann surface by using heat kernel and Reidemeister torsion. Formulas for intersection numbers on the moduli spaces over a…

The compactification $\overline M_{1,3}$ of the Gieseker moduli space of surfaces of general type with $K_X^2 =1 $ and $\chi(X)=3$ in the moduli space of stable surfaces parametrises so-called stable I-surfaces. We classify all such…

We report on a new approach, as well as some related experiments, to construct families of K3 surfaces having real or complex multiplication. The approach is based on an explicit description of the transcendental part of the cohomology in a…

It is well known that there exist non-isomorphic compact groups with isomorphic representation rings (fusion rules). Nevertheless, considerable structural information about the group can be reconstructed from its representation ring. We…

The Torelli group of a compact non-orientable Klein surface is the subgroup of the modular group consisting of the mapping classes that act trivially on the first homology group of the surface. We prove that if a surface has genus at least…

We prove that the moduli space of compact genus three Riemann surfaces contains only finitely many algebraically primitive Teichmueller curves. For the stratum consisting of holomorphic one-forms in genus three with a single zero, our…
