There are two types of Belyi's Theorem for curves defined over finite fields of characteristic p, namely the Wild and the Tame p-Belyi Theorems. In this paper, we discuss them in the language of function fields. We provide a self-contained…
We show that every smooth projective curve over a finite field k admits a finite tame morphism to the projective line over k. Furthermore, we construct a curve with no such map when k is an infinite perfect field of characteristic two. Our…
The purpose of the present paper is to give an effective version of the noncritical $p$-tame Belyi theorem. That is to say, we compute explicitly an upper bound of the minimal degree of tamely ramified Belyi maps in positive characteristic…
The famous theorem of Belyi can be viewed as a characterization of compact Riemann surfaces which admit a non-empty open subset uniformized by a subgroup of $SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ of finite index. I show that if $q\geq 5$, then ${\bf F}_q(T)$…
We give a Belyi-type characterisation of smooth complete intersections of general type over $\mathbb{C}$ which can be defined over $\bar{\mathbb{Q}}$. Our proof uses the higher-dimensional analogue of the Shafarevich boundedness conjecture…
We classify projective plane nonsingular curves admitting a 3-term presentation; they exist in any degree, generally constitute 5 birational families and are defined over rational numbers. The Belyi functions on all these curves are…
Belyi's theorem asserts that a smooth projective curve $X$ defined over a number field can be realized as a cover of the projective line unramified outside three points. In this short paper we investigate the bejaviour of the minimal degree…
In this elementary note we prove that a polynomial with rational coefficients divides the derivative of some polynomial which splits in $\Q$ if and only if all of its irrational roots are real and simple. This provides an answer to a…
We give an elementary, self-contained and quick proof of Belyi's theorem. As a by-product of our proof we obtain an explicit bound for the degree of the defining number field of a Belyi surface.
We study the dynamical properties of a large class of rational maps with exactly three ramification points. By constructing families of such maps, we obtain infinitely many conservative maps of degree $d$; this answers a question of…
We construct Belyi maps having specified behavior at finitely many points. Specifically, for any curve C defined over Q-bar, and any disjoint finite subsets S, T in C(Q-bar), we construct a finite morphism f: C -> P^1 such that f ramifies…
In this paper we classify curves of genus two over a perfect field k of characteristic two. We find rational models of curves with a given arithmetic structure for the ramification divisor and we give necessary and sufficient conditions for…
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…
Looking in positive characteristic for failures of the Bertini-Sard theorem, we determine, up to birational equivalence, the separable proper morphisms of smooth algebraic varieties in characteristic two, whose fibres are non-smooth curves…
We prove an analog of Belyi's theorem for the algebraic surfaces. Namely, any non-singular algebraic surface can be defined over a number field if and only it covers the complex projective plane with ramification at three knotted…
We exhibit an algorithm that, given input a curve $X$ over a number field, computes as output the minimal degree of a Belyi map $X \to \mathbb{P}^1$.
We develop a Belyi type theory that applies to Klein surfaces, i.e. (possibly non-orientable) surfaces with boundary which carry a dianalytic structure. In particular we extend Belyi's famous theorem from Riemann surfaces to Klein surfaces.
Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p$, let $f_i:X_i\to\mathbb A_k^1$ $(i=1,2)$ be two $k$-morphism of finite type, and let $f:X_1\times_k X_2\to \mathbb A_k^1$ be the morphism defined by $f(z_1,z_2)=f_1(z_1)+f_2(z_2)$. For each…
Bell's theorem is a fundamental result in quantum mechanics: it discriminates between quantum mechanics and all theories where probabilities in measurement results arise from the ignorance of pre-existing local properties. We give an…
A result of Belyi can be stated as follows. Every curve defined over a number field can be expressed as a cover of the projective line with branch locus contained in a rigid divisor. We define the notion of geometrically rigid divisors in…
