The framework of universal geometry allows us to consider metrical properties of affine views of elliptic curves, even over finite fields. We show how the Neuberg cubic of triangle geometry extends to the finite field situation and provides…
Fix a prime number $p$. We report on some recent developments in algebraic geometry (broadly construed) over $p$-adically complete commutative rings. These developments include foundational advances within the subject as well as external…
In this paper we study a family of curves obtained by fibre products of hyperelliptic curves. We then exploit this family to construct examples of curves of given genus g over a finite field Fq with many rational points. The results…
We reduce the classification of finite extensions of function fields (of curves over finite fields) with the same class number to a finite computation; complete this computation in all cases except when both curves have base field…
We investigate the Jacobian decomposition of some algebraic curves over finite fields with genus $4$, $5$ and $10$. As a corollary, explicit equations for curves that are either maximal or minimal over the finite field with $p^2$ elements…
In this paper we determine automorphism groups of cyclic algebraic curves defined over finite fields of any characteristic.
We determine conditions that guarantee that a hyperelliptic or plane curve over a field of characteristic not equal to 2 can be defined over its field of moduli. We also give new examples of curves not definable over their fields of moduli.
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ denote the finite field with $q$ elements. In this work, we use characters to give the number of rational points on suitable curves of low degree over $\mathbb{F}_q$ in terms of the number of rational points on elliptic…
We study algebraic relations among postcritically finite (PCF) parameters in the family $f_c(z) = z^2 + c$. Ghioca, Krieger, Nguyen and Ye proved that an algebraic curve in $\mathbb{C}^2$ contains infinitely many PCF pairs $(c_1, c_2)$ if…
While geometry with transcendental curves, like the Quadratrix of Hippias and the Spiral of Archimedes, played a significant role in our modern developments of geometry and algebra. The investigation has fallen off in the modern era despite…
Among all the dynamical modular curves associated to quadratic polynomial maps, we determine which curves have infinitely many quadratic points. This yields a classification statement on preperiodic points for quadratic polynomials over…
We investigate diagonal forms of degree $d$ over the function field $F$ of a smooth projective $p$-adic curve: if a form is isotropic over the completion of $F$ with respect to each discrete valuation of $F$, then it is isotropic over…
In this paper, with the help of trinomial coefficients we study some arithmetic properties of certain determiants involving reciprocals of binary quadratic forms over finite fields.
We discuss, in a non-Archimedean setting, the distribution of the coefficients of $L$-polynomials of curves of genus $g$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$. Among other results, this allows us to prove that the $\mathbb{Q}$-vector space spanned by such…
We study the complexity of multiplication of two elements in a finite field extension given by their coordinates in a normal basis. We show how to control this complexity using the arithmetic and geometry of algebraic curves.
A basis of the ideal of the complement of a linear subspace in a projective space over a finite field is given. As an application, the second largest number of points of plane curves of degree $d$ over the finite field of $q$ elements is…
Let $\mathbb F_{q^2}$ be the finite field with $q^2$ elements. We provide a simple and effective method, using reciprocal polynomials, for the construction of algebraic curves over $\mathbb F_{q^2}$ with many rational points. The curves…
We investigate geometric properties of surfaces given by certain formulae. In particular, we calculate the singular curvature and the limiting normal curvature of such surfaces along the set of singular points consisting of singular points…
We describe algebraic curves $ X : F(x, y) = 0 $ defined over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$ that satisfy the following property: there exist a number field $k$ and an infinite set $S \subset k$ such that, for every $y \in S$, the roots of the…
The development of computational techniques in the last decade has made possible to attack some classical problems of algebraic geometry. In this survey, we briefly describe some open problems related to algebraic curves which can be…
