We give a precise formula for the value of the canonical Green's function at a pair of Weierstrass points on a hyperelliptic Riemann surface. Further we express the 'energy' of the Weierstrass points in terms of a spectral invariant…

We give a complete and explicit description of the kinematical data of higher gauge theory on principal 2-bundles with the string 2-group model of Schommer-Pries as structure 2-group. We start with a self-contained review of the weak…

We study the Drinfeld modular curves arising from the Hecke congruence subgroups of $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{F}_q[T])$. Using a combinatorial method of Gekeler and Nonnengardt, we obtain a genus formula for these curves. In cases when the…

We present a calculation of the rational terms in two-loop all-plus gluon amplitudes using $D$-dimensional unitarity. We use a conjecture of separability of the two loops, and then a simple generalization of one-loop $D$-dimensional…

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…

In this paper, we introduce a fundamental substructure of maximal caps in the affine geometry $AG(4,3)$ that we call \emph{demicaps}. Demicaps provide a direct link to particular partitions of $AG(4,3)$ into 4 maximal caps plus a single…

We give new arguments that improve the known upper bounds on the maximal number N_q(g) of rational points of a curve of genus g over a finite field F_q for a number of pairs (q,g). Given a pair (q,g) and an integer N, we determine the…

We give a new construction of nonlinear error-correcting codes over suitable finite fields k from the geometry of modular curves with many rational points over k, combining two recent improvements on Goppa's construction. The resulting…

In the 80's D. Eisenbud and J. Harris considered the following problem: ``What are the limits of Weierstrass points in families of curves degenerating to stable curves?'' But for the case of stable curves of compact type, treated by them,…

We introduce a new construction of error-correcting codes from algebraic curves over finite fields. Modular curves of genus g -> infty over a field of size q0^2 yield nonlinear codes more efficient than the linear Goppa codes obtained from…

Let $K$ be a field, $a, b\in K$ and $ab\neq 0$. Let us consider the polynomials $g_{1}(x)=x^n+ax+b, g_{2}(x)=x^n+ax^2+bx$, where $n$ is a fixed positive integer. In this paper we show that for each $k\geq 2$ the hypersurface given by the…

We study the codimension n locus of curves of genus 2 with n distinct marked Weierstrass points inside the moduli space of genus 2, n-pointed curves, for n <= 6. We give a recursive description of the classes of the closure of these loci…

In this paper, we show that there are solutions of every degree $r$ of the equation of Pell-Abel on some real hyperelliptic curve of genus $g$ if and only if $ r > g$. This result, which is known to the experts, has consequences, which seem…

Let $k \geq 1$. A graph $G$ is $\mathbf{W_k}$ if for any $k$ pairwise disjoint independent vertex subsets $A_1, \dots, A_k$ in $G$, there exist $k$ pairwise disjoint maximum independent sets $S_1, \dots, S_k$ in $G$ such that $A_i \subseteq…

Given a hyperelliptic curve $C$ of genus $g$ over a number field $K$ and a Weierstrass model $\mathscr{C}$ of $C$ over the ring of integers ${\mathcal O}_K$ (i.e. the hyperelliptic involution of $C$ extends to $\mathscr{C}$ and the quotient…

Algebraic-geometric codes can be constructed by evaluating a certain set of functions on a set of distinct rational points of an algebraic curve. The set of functions that are evaluated is the linear space of a given divisor or,…

The most successful method to obtain lower bounds for the minimum distance of an algebraic geometric code is the order bound, which generalizes the Feng-Rao bound. We provide a significant extension of the bound that improves the order…

Let $G$ denote a countable inverse semigroup. We construct a kind of a Baum--Connes map $K(\tilde A \rtimes G) \rightarrow K(A \rtimes G)$ by a categorial approach via localization of triangulated categories, developed by R. Meyer and R.…

We use a recent characterization of minimal value set polynomials and $q$- Frobenius nonclassical curves to construct curves that generalize the Hermitian curve. The genus $g$ and the number $N$ of $\mathbb{F}_q$-rational points of the…

For a split semisimple Chevalley group scheme G with Lie algebra g over an arbitrary base scheme S, we consider the quotient of g by the adjoint action of G. We study in detail the structure of g over S. Given a maximal torus T with Lie…
