Let $\mathbb{F}_r$ be a finite field of characteristic $p>3$. For any power $q$ of $p$, consider the elliptic curve $E=E_{q,r}$ defined by $y^2=x^3 + t^q -t$ over $K=\mathbb{F}_r(t)$. We describe several arithmetic invariants of $E$ such as…

Quantum Teichmuller theory assigns invariants to three-manifolds via projective representations of mapping class groups derived from the representation of a noncommutative torus. Here, we focus on a representation of the simplest…

We consider a variation of Construction A of lattices from linear codes based on two classes of number fields, totally real and CM Galois number fields. We propose a generic construction with explicit generator and Gram matrices, then focus…

Modular curves like X_0(N) and X_1(N) appear very frequently in arithmetic geometry. While their complex points are obtained as a quotient of the upper half plane by some subgroups of SL_2(Z), they allow for a more arithmetic description as…

We discuss generalizations of some results on lattice polygons to certain piecewise linear loops which may have a self-intersection but have vertices in the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$. We first prove a formula on the rotation number of a…

Given a vector bundle $E$ of rank $r$ and degree $d$ on a curve $C$ of genus $g$, one can associate to $E$ in a natural way several other vector bundles. For example, one can take wedge powers of $E$. If $E$ is generated by global sections,…

We construct a scalar invariant of flat principal 2-bundles over 3-manifolds, with structure 2-group $\mathcal{G}$, from an involutory Hopf algebra graded by $\mathcal{G}$. Expressing $\mathcal{G}$ in terms of a crossed module $\chi$ and…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve, defined over a quartic extension $K$ of $\mathbb{Q}$, with $j(E) \in \mathbb{Q}$. In this paper, we classify the possible torsion subgroup structures $E(K)_{\text{tors}}$.

A novel family of integrable third order maps is presented. Each map possesses, by construction, a pair of rational invariants and a commuting map from the same class. The 3-dimensional invariant curve is parametrized, in general, by an…

Using $E_8$ bundles, we construct some new modular forms over $SL(2,{\bf Z})$, $\Gamma^0(2)$ and $\Gamma_0(2)$ and get some new anomaly cancellation formulas of characteristic forms which generalize some anomaly cancellation formulas in…

Let $X = S \times E$ be the product of a K3 surface $S$ and an elliptic curve $E$. Reduced stable pair invariants of $X$ can be defined via (1) cutting down the reduced virtual class with incidence conditions or (2) the Behrend function…

We construct a topological invariant of algebraic plane curves, which is in some sense an adaptation of the linking number of knot theory. This invariant is shown to be a generalization of the I-invariant of line arrangements developed by…

We show that the ring of modular forms with characters for the even unimodular lattice of signature (2,18) is obtained from the invariant ring of $\mathrm{Sym}(\mathrm{Sym}^8(V) \oplus \mathrm{Sym}^{12}(V))$ with respect to the action of…

The classical modular polynomial for $j$-invariants describes the relation between two elliptic curves connected by isogenies. This polynomial has been applied to various algorithms in computational number theory, such as point counting on…

In this paper, we will apply the tools from number theory and modular forms to the study of the Seiberg-Witten theory. We will express the holomorphic functions $a, a_D$, which generate the lattice $Z=n_e a+n_m a_D, (n_e, n_m) \in…

An ADE Dynkin diagram gives rise to a family of algebraic curves. In this paper, we use arithmetic invariant theory to study the integral points of the curves associated to the exceptional diagrams $E_6, E_7$, $E_8$. These curves are…

If $L$ is a finite lattice, we show that there is a natural topological lattice structure on the geometric realization of its order complex $\Delta(L)$ (definition recalled). Lattice-theoretically, the resulting object is a subdirect…
