We derive various inequalities involving the intersection number of the curves contained in geodesics and tight geodesics in the curve graph. While there already exist such inequalities on tight geodesics, our method applies in the setting…
With suitable order of limits, as p, m, and n all tend to infinity, the distribution of the normalized trace of Frobenius on H^1 of a "random" plane curve of degree n over the field with p^m elements, tends to a Gaussian distribution. The…
We construct isotrivial and non-isotrivial elliptic curves over $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ with an arbitrarily large set of separable integral points. As an application of this construction, we prove that there are isotrivial log-general type…
In this paper we use a gradient flow to deform closed planar curves to curves with least variation of geodesic curvature in the $L^2$ sense. Given a smooth initial curve we show that the solution to the flow exists for all time and,…
It is well known that the Prym variety of an \'etale cyclic covering of a hyperelliptic curve is isogenous to the product of two Jacobians. Moreover, if the degree of the covering is odd or congruent to 2 mod 4, then the canonical isogeny…
In this paper, we aim to study traces of Frobenius of certain one parameter families of elliptic curves and their relationships with $p$-adic hypergeometric functions. For example, we consider a DIK family of curves and establish the trace…
We classify elliptic curves over the rationals whose N\'eron model over the integers is semi-abelian, with good reduction at p=2, and whose Mordell--Weil group contains an element of order two that stays non-trivial at p=2. Furthermore, we…
Consider the family of elliptic curves $E_n:y^2=x^3+n^2$, where $n$ varies over positive cubefree integers. There is a rational $3$-isogeny $\phi$ from $E_n$ to $\hat{E}_n:y^2=x^3-27n^2$ and a dual isogeny $\hat{\phi}:\hat{E}_n\rightarrow…
Let $G$ be the graph attached to the $\mathbb Q$-isogeny class of an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb Q$: that is, a vertex for every elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb Q$ in the isogeny class, and edges in correspondence with the…
The history of the isoptic curves goes back to the 19th century, but nowadays the topic is experiencing a renaissance, providing numerous new results and new applications. First, we define the notion of isoptic curve and outline some of the…
We discuss the distribution of Mordell--Weil ranks of the family of elliptic curves $y^2=(x+\alpha f^2)(x+\beta b g^2)(x+\gamma h^2)$ where $f,g,h$ are coprime polynomials that parametrize the projective smooth conic $a^2+b^2=c^2$ and…
We investigate how various invariants of elliptic curves, such as the discriminant, Kodaira type, Tamagawa number and real and complex periods, change under an isogeny of prime degree p. For elliptic curves over l-adic fields, the…
Consider two elliptic curves $E,E'$ defined over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, and suppose that there exists an isogeny $\psi$ between $E$ and $E'$. We propose an algorithm that determines $\psi$ from the knowledge of $E$, $E'$ and of…
Let $p \geq 5$ be a prime and for $a, b \in \mathbb{F}_{p}$, let $E_{a,b}$ denote the elliptic curve over $\mathbb{F}_{p}$ with equation $y^2=x^3+a\,x + b$. As usual define the trace of Frobenius $a_{p,\,a,\,b}$ by \begin{equation*}…
We study hyperelliptic curves y^2=f(x) over local fields of odd residue characteristic. We introduce the notion of a "cluster picture" associated to the curve, that describes the p-adic distances between the roots of f(x), and show that…
