The modular $j$-function is a bijective map from $X_0(1) \setminus \{\infty\}$ to $\mathbb{C}$. A natural question is to describe the inverse map. Gauss offered a solution to the inverse problem in terms of the arithmetic-geometric mean.…

Let $K$ be a global field and let $Z$ be a geometrically irreducible algebraic variety defined over $K$. We show that if a big set $S\subseteq Z$ of rational points of bounded height occupies few residue classes modulo $\mathfrak{p}$ for…

Consider a modular curve $X_G$ defined over a number field $K$, where $G$ is a subgroup of $GL_2(\mathbb{Z}/N\mathbb{Z})$ with $N>2$. The curve $X_G$ comes with a morphism $j: X_G\to \mathbb{P}^1_K=\mathbb{A}^1_K \cup\{\infty\}$ to the…

A classical theorem of Wendroff shows that one may reconstructs a sequence of orthogonal polynomials on the real line from two non-constant polynomials of consecutive degrees whose zeros strictly interlace on the real line. In this note we…

We study plane curves of type p,q having only nodes as singularities. Every Weierstra\ss semigroup is the Weierstra\ss semigroup of such a curve at its place at infinity for properly chosen p,q. We construct plane curves of type p,q with…

We introduce and study invariants of singularities in positive characteristic called F-thresholds. They give an analogue of the jumping coefficients of multiplier ideals in characteristic zero. We discuss the connection between the…

Consider an elliptic curve $E$ over a number field $K$. Suppose that $E$ has supersingular reduction at some prime $\mathfrak{p}$ of $K$ lying above the rational prime $p$. We completely classify the valuations of the $p^n$-torsion points…

An invariant of a model of genus one curve is a polynomial in the coefficients of the model that is stable under certain linear transformations. The classical example of an invariant is the discriminant, which characterizes the singularity…

We study pullbacks of modular forms of weight 1 from the modular curve X(4) to the modular curve X(4p), where p is an odd prime. We find the extent to which such modular forms separate points on X(4p). Our main result is that these modular…

We consider the generalized Jacobian $\widetilde{J}_0(N)$ of a modular curve $X_0(N)$ with respect to a reduced divisor given by the sum of all cusps on it. When $N$ is a power of a prime $\geq 5$, we exhibit that the group of rational…

We study the tensor product $W$ of any number of "elementary" irreducible modules $V_1,...,V_k$ over the Yangian of the general linear Lie algebra. Each of these modules is determined by a skew Young diagram and a complex parameter. For any…

We prove that the length of the boundary of a $J$-holomorphic curve with Lagrangian boundary conditions is dominated by a constant times its area. The constant depends on the symplectic form, the almost complex structure, the Lagrangian…

An affine invariant point on the class of convex bodies in R^n, endowed with the Hausdorff metric, is a continuous map p which is invariant under one-to-one affine transformations A on R^n, that is, p(A(K))=A(p(K)). We define here the new…

The zero divisor of the theta function of a compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus $g$ is the canonical theta divisor of Pic${}^{(g-1)}$ up to translation by the Riemann constant $\Delta$ for a base point $P$ of $X$. The complement of the…

We introduce a new class of pseudoprimes-so called "overpseudoprimes" which is a special subclass of super-Poulet pseudoprimes. Denoting via h(n) the multiplicative order of 2 modulo n, we show that odd number n is overpseudoprime iff value…

Suppose $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{g}_{\bar 0}+\mathfrak{g}_{\bar 1} is a Lie superalgebra of queer type or periplectic type over an algebraically closed field $\textbf{k}$ of characteristic $p>2$. In this article, we initiate preliminarily to…

We consider the analogue of the Andr\'e-Oort conjecture for Drinfeld modular varieties which was formulated by Breuer. We prove this analogue for special points with separable reflex field over the base field by adapting methods which were…

Given a hypersurface defined by $f$ in a smooth complex algebraic variety $X$, and a point $P$ on this hypersurface, we consider the invariant $\beta_P(f)$ given by the log canonical threshold at $P$ of ${\mathfrak m}_P\cdot J_f$, where…

We define a class of numerical semigroups S, which we call Castelnuovo semigroups, and study the subvariety $M^S_{g,1}$ of $M_{g,1}$ consisting of marked smooth curves with Weierstrass semigroup S. We determine the number of irreducible…

We determine which of the modular curves $X_\Delta(N)$, that is, curves lying between $X_0(N)$ and $X_1(N)$, are bielliptic. Somewhat surprisingly, we find that one of these curves has exceptional automorphisms. Finally we find all…
