We study the question of whether algebraic curves of a given genus g defined over a field K must have points rational over the maximal abelian extension K^{ab} of K. We give: (i) an explicit family of diagonal plane cubic curves with…

We consider polynomial maps, which we call degree $d$-linear maps, that satisfy the Jacobian condition. We prove that certain infinite families of elements, which appear in the coefficients of the formal inverse of such maps, are in the…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from 2, $g$ a positive integer, $f(x)$ a degree $(2g+1)$ polynomial with coefficients in $K$ and without multiple roots, $C: y^2=f(x)$ the corresponding genus $g$…

We establish sharp lower and upper bounds for the number of integral points near dilations of a space curve with nowhere vanishing torsion.

We prove that $n$ plane algebraic curves determine $O(n^{(k+2)/(k+1)})$ points of $k$-th order tangency. This generalizes an earlier result of Ellenberg, Solymosi, and Zahl on the number of (first order) tangencies determined by $n$ plane…

The Jacobian conjecture is a well-known open problem in affine algebraic geometry that asks if any polynomial endomorphism of the affine space $\mathbb{A}_{\mathbb{C}}^{n}$ ($n\geq2$) with jacobian $1$ is an automorphism. We present a…

We extend the formulae of classical invariant theory for the Jacobian of a genus one curve of degree $n \le 4$ to curves of arbitrary degree. To do this, we associate to each genus one normal curve of degree $n$, an $n \times n$ alternating…

Fix a non-square integer $k\neq 0$. We show that the number of curves $E_B:y^2=x^3+kB^2$ containing an integral point, where $B$ ranges over positive integers less than $N$, is bounded by $O_k(N(\log N)^{-\frac{1}{2}+\epsilon})$. In…

Let $X$ (resp. $Y$) be a curve of genus 1 (resp. 2) over a base field $k$ whose characteristic does not equal 2. We give criteria for the existence of a curve $Z$ over $k$ whose Jacobian is up to twist (2,2,2)-isogenous to the products of…

We prove that for any number field $K$ and any fixed genus $g \geq 2$, there are infinitely many non-isomorphic hyperelliptic curves of genus $g$ over $K$ whose Jacobians have rank over $K$ equal to each of 0, 1, or 2. As an example of our…

We study the relationship between rational points and Galois points for a plane curve over a finite field. It is known that the set of Galois points coincides with that of rational points of the projective plane if the curve is the…

Assuming Lang's conjectured lower bound on the heights of non-torsion points on an elliptic curve, we show that there exists an absolute constant C such that for any elliptic curve E/Q and non-torsion point P in E(Q), there is at most one…

Piontkowski calculated the Euler number of Jacobi factors of plane curve singularities with semigroups $< p, q>$, $< 4, 2q, s>$, $< 6,8,s>$ and $< 6,10, s>$. %His analysis was done by decomposing the Jacobi factors into affine cells. In…

Consider an algebraic equation $P(x,y)=0$ where $P\in \mathbb C[x,y] $ (or $\mathbb F[x,y]$ with $\mathbb F\subset \mathbb C$ a subfield) is a bivariate polynomial, it defines a plane algebraic curve. We provide an efficient method for…

The square peg problem asks whether every continuous curve in the plane that starts and ends at the same point without self-intersecting contains four distinct corners of some square. Toeplitz conjectured in 1911 that this is indeed the…

The Jacobian conjecture is an old unsolved problem in mathematics, which has been unsuccessfully attacked from many different angles. We add here another point of view pertaining to the so called formal inverse approach, that of…

We describe the 0-th Fitting ideal of the Jacobian module of a plane curve in terms of determinants involving the Jacobian syzygies of this curve. This leads to new characterizations of maximal Tjurina curves, that is of non free plane…

We prove that a smooth, complex plane curve $C$ of odd degree can be defined by a polynomial with real coefficients if and only if $C$ is isomorphic to its complex conjugate. Counterexamples are known for curves of even degree. More…

If $E$ is a minimal elliptic curve defined over $\ZZ$, we obtain a bound $C$, depending only on the global Tamagawa number of $E$, such that for any point $P\in E(\QQ)$, $nP$ is integral for at most one value of $n>C$. As a corollary, we…

We identify several classes of curves $C:f=0$, for which the Hilbert vector of the Jacobian module $N(f)$ can be completely determined, namely the 3-syzygy curves, the maximal Tjurina curves and the nodal curves, having only rational…
