Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a (projective, non-singular, geometrically irreducible) curve of even genus $g(\mathcal{X}) \geq 2$ defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of odd characteristic $p$. If the $p$-rank $\gamma(\mathcal{X})$ equals…

A cyclic $n$-gonal surface is a compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus $g\geq 2$ admitting a cyclic group of conformal automorphisms $C$ of order $n$ such that the quotient space $X/C$ has genus 0. In this paper, we provide an overview of…

In this note we study the problem of characterizing the complex affine space $\mathbb{A}^n$ via its automorphism group. We prove the following. Let $X$ be an irreducible quasi-projective $n$-dimensional variety such that $\mathrm{Aut}(X)$…

Given a compact connected Riemann surface $X$ of genus $g \geq 2$, and integers $r\geq 2$, $d_p > 0$ and $d_z > 0$, in \cite{BDHW}, a generalized quot scheme ${\mathcal Q}_X(r,d_p,d_z)$ was introduced. Our aim here is to compute the…

For a curve $X$ of genus $>1$ defined over a finite field, we present a criterion which allows us to state the non existence of automorphisms of order a power of a rational prime. We show how this criterion can be used to determine the…

Let $Mod_{g}$ be the modular group of surfaces of genus $g$. Each element $[h]\in Mod_{g}$ induces in the integer homology of a surface of genus $g$ a symplectic automorphism $H([h])$ and Poincar\'{e} shown that $H:Mod_{g}\to…

The fine curve graph of a surface was introduced by Bowden, Hensel, and Webb as a graph consisting of essential simple closed curves on the surface. Long, Margalit, Pham, Verberne, and Yao proved that the automorphism group of the fine…

As a consequence of the Riemann-Roch theorem, a closed Riemann surface $S$ can be described by a non-singular complex projective algebraic curve $C$. A field of definition for $S$ is any subfield $D$ of $\mathbb{C}$ so that we may choose…

Let $S$ be a closed Riemann surface of genus $g\geq 2$ and let ${\rm Aut}(S)$ be its group of conformal automorphisms. It is well known that if either: (i) ${\rm Aut}(S)$ is trivial or (ii) $S/{\rm Aut}(S)$ is an orbifold of genus zero with…

In this article we study compact Riemann surfaces with a non-large group of automorphisms of maximal order; namely, compact Riemann surfaces of genus $g$ with a group of automorphisms of order $4g-4.$ Under the assumption that $g-1$ is…

Consider a normal projective variety $X$, a linear algebraic subgroup $G$ of Aut($X$), and the field $K$ of $G$-invariant rational functions on $X$. We show that the subgroup of Aut($X$) that fixes $K$ pointwise is linear algebraic. If $K$…

In 1895 Wiman introduced a Riemann surface $\mathcal{W}$ of genus $6$ over the complex field $\mathbb{C}$ defined by the homogeneous equation $\mathcal{W}:X^6+Y^6+Z^6+(X^2+Y^2+Z^2)(X^4+Y^4+Z^4)-12X^2 Y^2 Z^2=0$, and showed that its full…

Let $X$ be a compact Riemann surface of genus $g\geq 2$, and let $Aut(X)$ be its group of automorphims. We show that the exponent of $Aut(X)$ is bounded by $42(g-1)$. We also determine explicitly the infinitely many values of $g$ for which…
