Let $V$ be a hyperelliptic curve of genus 2 defined by $Y^2=f(X)$, where $f(X)$ is a polynomial of degree 5. The sigma function associated with $V$ is a holomorphic function on $\mathbb{C}^2$. For a point $P$ on $V$, we consider the problem…

We have recently studied a simplified version of the path integral for a particle on a sphere, and more generally on maximally symmetric spaces, and proved that Riemann normal coordinates allow the use of a quadratic kinetic term in the…

Let P be a locally finite circle packing in the plane invariant under a non-elementary Kleinian group Gamma and with finitely many Gamma-orbits. When Gamma is geometrically finite, we construct an explicit Borel measure on the plane which…

Starting from the symmetrical reflection functional equation of the zeta function, we have found that the sigma values satisfying zeta(s) = 0 must also satisfy both |zeta(s)| = |zeta(1 - s)| and |gamma(s/2)zeta(s)| = |gamma((1 - s)/2)zeta(1…

This paper deals with some simple results about spherical functions of type $\delta$, namely new integral formulas, new results about behavior at infinity and some facts about the related $C_\sigma$ functions.

We give a geometric proof of a formula, due to Segal and Wilson, which describes the order of vanishing of the Riemann theta function in the direction which corresponds to the direction of the tangent space of a Riemann surface at a marked…

We develop techniques for computing the equivariant local mirror symmetry of curves, i.e. mirror symmetry for O(k)+O(-2-k) over P^1 for k greater than 0. We also describe related methods for dealing with mirror symmetry of non-nef toric…

We study the automorphism group of an infinite minimal shift $(X,\sigma)$ such that the complexity difference function, $p(n+1)-p(n)$, is bounded. We give some new bounds on $\mbox{Aut}(X,\sigma)/\langle \sigma \rangle$ and also study the…

Let X be a compact oriented Riemannian manifold and let $\phi:X\to S^1$ be a circle-valued Morse function. Under some mild assumptions on $\phi$, we prove a formula relating: (a) the number of closed orbits of the gradient flow of $\phi$ of…

We report on some properties of the $\xi(s)$ function and its value on the critical line, $\Xi(t)=\xi\left(\tfrac{1}{2}+it\right)$. First, we present some identities that hold for the log derivatives of a holomorphic function. We then…

This article concerns the computational complexity of a fundamental problem in number theory: counting points on curves and surfaces over finite fields. There is no subexponential-time algorithm known and it is unclear if it can be…

Let ${\cal Z}_1(s) = \int_1^\infty |\zeta({1\over2}+ix)|^2x^{-s}{\rm d}x (\sigma = \Re s > 1)$. A result concerning analytic continuation of ${\cal Z}_1(s)$ to $\bf C$ is proved, and also a result relating the order of ${\cal Z}_1(\sigma +…

We consider operators $L$ acting on functions on a Riemannian surface, $\Sigma$, of the form $L = \Delta + V +a K.$ Here $\Delta$ is the Laplacian of $\Sigma$, $V$ a non-negative potential on $\Sigma$, K the Gaussian curvature and $a$ is a…

Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a separable Hilbert space with norm $\|\cdot\|$ and let $T>0$. Let $Q$ be a linear, self-adjoint, positive, trace class operator on $\mathcal{X}$, let $F:\mathcal{X}\rightarrow \mathcal{X}$ be a (smooth enough) function…

In this work we determine the so-called minimal generating set of the Weierstrass semigroup of certain $m$ points on curves $\mathcal{X}$ with plane model of the type $f(y) = g(x)$ over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$, where $f(T),g(T)\in…

For primes $p>3$ we produce a new derivation of the universal $p$-adic sigma function and $p$-adic Weierstrass zeta functions of Mazur and Tate for ordinary elliptic curves by a method that highlights congruences among coefficients in…

Fix a number $g>1$, let $S$ be a close surface of genus $g$, and $Teich(S)$ be the Teichm\"uller space of $S$ endowed with the Weil-Petersson metric. In this paper we show that the Riemannian sectional curvature operator of $Teich(S)$ is…

For a connected semisimple real Lie group $G$ of non-compact type, Wallach introduced a class of $K$-types called small. We classify all small $K$-types for all simple Lie groups and prove except just one case that each elementary spherical…

We study a 3-dimensional topological sigma-model, whose target space is a hyper-Kahler manifold X. A Feynman diagram calculation of its partition function demonstrates that it is a finite type invariant of 3-manifolds which is similar in…

The zero locus of a bivariate polynomial $P(x,y)=0$ defines a compact Riemann surface $\Sigma$. The fundamental second kind differential is a symmetric $1\otimes 1$ form on $\Sigma\times \Sigma$ that has a double pole at coinciding points…
