A tool package for computing genus 0 Belyi functions is presented, including simplification routines, computation of moduli fields, decompositions, dessins d'enfant. The main algorithm for computing the Belyi functions themselves is based…
Given a finite index subgroup $\Gamma$ of ${\rm{PSL}}_2(\Bbb{Z})$, we investigate Belyi functions on the corresponding modular curve $X(\Gamma)$ by introducing two methods for constructing such functions. Numerous examples have been worked…
In this work all the dessins d'enfant with no more than 4 edges are listed and their Belyi pairs are computed. In order to enumerate all dessins the technique of matrix model computations was used. The total number of dessins is 134; among…
We introduce dessins d'enfants from the various existing points of view: As topological covering spaces, as surfaces with triangulations, and as algebraic curves with functions ramified over three points. We prove Belyi's theorem that such…
Riemann's Existence Theorem gives the following bijections: (1) Isomorphism classes of Belyi maps of degree $d$. (2) Equivalence classes of generating systems of degree $d$. (3) Isomorphism classes of dessins d'enfants with $d$ edges. In…
Exceptional Belyi covering is a connected Belyi covering uniquely determined by its ramification scheme or the respective dessin d'enfant. We focus on rational exceptional Belyi coverings of compact Riemann surfaces of genus 0. Well known…
Dessin d'enfants (French for children's drawings) serve as a unique standpoint of studying classical complex analysis under the lens of combinatorial constructs. A thorough development of the background of this theory is developed with an…
We present the matrix models that are the generating functions for branched covers of the complex projective line ramified over $0$, $1$, and $\infty$ (Grotendieck's dessins d'enfants) of fixed genus, degree, and the ramification profile at…
Motivated by a demand for explicit genus 1 Belyi maps from theoretical physics, we give an efficient method of explicitly computing genus one Belyi maps by (1) composing covering maps from elliptic curves to the Riemann sphere with simpler…
We study the absolute Galois group by looking for invariants and orbits of its faithful action on Grothendieck's dessins d'enfants. We define a class of functions called Belyi-extending maps, which we use to construct new Galois invariants…
We use a numerical method to compute a database of three-point branched covers of the complex projective line of small degree. We report on some interesting features of this data set, including issues of descent.
We survey methods to compute three-point branched covers of the projective line, also known as Belyi maps. These methods include a direct approach, involving the solution of a system of polynomial equations, as well as complex analytic…
A Bely\u{\i} pair is a holomorphic map from a Riemann surface to $S^2$ with additional properties. A dessin d'enfants is a bipartite graph with additional structure. It is well know that there is a bijection between Bely\u{i} pairs and…
The paper is an attempt to apply the theory of dessins d'enfants to the theory of fullerenes. The classical results concerning the calculation of the dodecahedron Belyi function are presented and then applied to the calculation of the Belyi…
We present a method of obtaining a Belyi map on an elliptic curve from that on the Riemann sphere. This is done by writing the former as a radical of the latter, which we call a quadratic correspondence, with the radical determining the…
We exhibit an algorithm that, given input a curve $X$ over a number field, computes as output the minimal degree of a Belyi map $X \to \mathbb{P}^1$.
Evaluation of low degree hypergeometric polynomials to zero defines an algebraic hypersurface in the affine space of the free parameters and the argument. This article investigates the algebraic surfaces 2F1(-N,b;c;z)=0 for N=3 and N=4. As…
An elliptic exceptional Belyi covering is a connected Belyi covering uniquely determined by its ramification scheme or the respective dessin d'enfant when the underlying compact Riemann surface has genus 1. We give our Maple algorithm and…
In this short note we introduce the Belyi degree of a number field K, which is the smallest degree of a dessin d'enfant having K as field of moduli. After the description of some general properties (for example, the fact that there exist…
We consider an application of Grothendieck's dessins d'enfants to the theory of the sixth Painlev\'e and Gauss hypergeometric functions: two classical special functions of the isomonodromy type. It is shown that, higher order…
