For a prime number $p$ we study the zeros modulo $p$ of divisor polynomials of rational elliptic curves $E$ of conductor $p$. Ono made the observation that these zeros of are often $j$-invariants of supersingular elliptic curves over…
Let q be a prime power and E a non-isotrivial elliptic curve over Fq(T) given by a Weierstrass model. We survey the construction, with an explicit point of view, of the modular parametrization of E by the associated Drinfeld modular curve.…
For a superelliptic curve $\mathcal X$, defined over $\mathbb Q$, let $\mathfrak p$ denote the corresponding moduli point in the weighted moduli space. We describe a method how to determine a minimal integral model of $\mathcal X$ such…
We study the supersingular curves on Picard modular surfaces modulo a prime $p$ which is inert in the underlying quadratic imaginary field. We analyze the automorphic vector bundles in characteristic $p$, and as an application derive a…
We give a classification of the degrees of the points with rational $j$-invariant on the modular curves $X_{0}(n)$ and $X_{1}(n)$. The degrees which occur infinitely often are computed unconditionally, while those which occur finitely often…
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…
Let $\ell$ be a prime and let $n\geq 1$. In this note we show that if there is a non-cuspidal, non-CM isolated point $x$ with a rational $j$-invariant on the modular curve $X_1(\ell^n)$, then $\ell=37$ and the $j$-invariant of $x$ is either…
Assume $a$ and $b=na+r$ with $n \geq 1$ and $0<r<a$ are relatively prime integers. In case $C$ is a smooth curve and $P$ is a point on $C$ with Weierstrass semigroup equal to $<a;b>$ then $C$ is called a $C_{a;b}$-curve. In case $r \neq…
The aim of this paper is to discuss the notion of Wieferich primes in the context of Drinfeld modules. Our main result is a surprising connection between the proprety of a monic irreducible polynomial $\mathfrak p$ to be Wieferich and the…
We consider the generalized Jacobian $\widetilde{J}$ of the modular curve $X_0(N)$ of level $N$ with respect to a reduced divisor consisting of all cusps. Supposing $N$ is square free, we explicitly determine the structure of the…
The integer point transform $\sigma_{\mathcal P}$ is an important invariant of a rational polytope $\mathcal P$, and here we show that it is a complete invariant. We prove that it is only necessary to evaluate $\sigma_{\mathcal P}$ at one…
We provide a new lower bound for the dimension of the moduli space of smooth pointed curves with prescribed Weierstrass semigroup at the marked point, derived from the Deligne-Greuel formula and Pinkham's equivariant deformation theory.…
We show that an elliptic modular form with integral Fourier coefficients in a number field $K$, for which all but finitely many coefficients are divisible by a prime ideal $\frak{p}$ of $K$, is a constant modulo $\frak{p}$. A similar…
The dimension of the moduli space of smooth pointed curves with prescribed Weierstrass semigroup at the market point is computed for three families of symmetric semigroups of multiplicity six. We also collect the dimensions of such moduli…

The Weierstrass curve $X$ is a smooth algebraic curve determined by the Weierstrass canonical form, $y^r + A_{1}(x) y^{r-1} + A_{2}(x) y^{r-2} +\cdots + A_{r-1}(x) y + A_{r}(x)=0$, where $r$ is a positive integer, and each $A_j$ is a…
An isolated point of degree $d$ is a closed point on an algebraic curve which does not belong to an infinite family of degree $d$ points that can be parameterized by some geometric object. We provide an algorithm to test whether a rational,…
We study the properties of special values of the modular functions obtained from Weierstrass P-function at imaginary quadratic points.
The {\it Weierstrass semigroup} of pole orders of meromorphic functions in a point $p$ of a smooth algebraic curve $C$ is a classical object of study; a celebrated problem of Hurwitz is to characterize which semigroups ${\rm S} \subset…
We investigate the mod $p$ Buchstaber invariant of the skeleta of simplices, for a prime number $p$, and compare them for different values of $p$. For $p=2$, the invariant is the real Buchstaber invariant. Our findings reveal that these…
