Let $C$ be a hyperelliptic curve of genus $g$ over the fraction field $K$ of a discrete valuation ring $R$. Assume that the residue field $k$ of $R$ is perfect and that $\mathop{\textrm{char}} k \neq 2$. Assume that the Weierstrass points…
We give a new practical method for computing subvarieties of projective hypersurfaces. By computing the periods of a given hypersurface X, we find algebraic cohomology cycles on X. On well picked algebraic cycles, we can then recover the…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over a field $K$ (with $char(K)\neq 2$) given by a Weierstrass equation and let $P=(x,y)\in E(K)$ be a point. Then for each $n$ $\geq 1$ and some $\gamma \in K^{\ast }$ we can write the $x$- and…
The notion of "Weierstrass Section", comes from Weierstrass canonical form for elliptic curves. In celebrated work [B. Kostant, Lie group representations on polynomial rings, Amer. J. Math. 85 (1963), 327-404] constructed such a section for…
In this paper, we investigate two-point Algebraic Geometry codes associated to the Skabelund maximal curve constructed as a cyclic cover of the Suzuki curve. In order to estimate the minimum distance of such codes, we make use of the…
For each group $G$, $(|G| > 2)$ \, which acts as a full automorphism group on a genus 3 hyperelliptic curve, we determine the family of curves which have 2-Weierstrass points. Such families of curves are explicitly determined in terms of…
The development of secure cryptographic protocols and the subsequent attack mechanisms have been placed in the literature with the utmost curiosity. While sophisticated quantum attacks bring a concern to the classical cryptographic…
We present an explicit construction of a compactification of the locus of smooth curves whose symmetric Weierstrass semigroup at a marked point is odd. The construction is an extension of Stoehr's techniques using Pinkham'sequivariant…
Let $K$ be the algebraic closure of $\mathbb{F}_{q}$. We provide an explicit description of the Weierstrass semigroup $H(Q_\infty)$ at the only place at infinity $Q_{\infty}$ of the curve $\mathcal{X}$ defined by the Kummer extension with…
We present an algorithm to compute the Weierstrass semigroup at a point P together with functions for each value in the semigroup, provided P is the only branch at infinity of a singular plane model for the curve. As a byproduct, the method…
Starting from the classical division polynomials we construct homogeneous polynomials $\alpha_n$, $\beta_n$, $\gamma_n$ such that for $P = (x:y:z)$ on an elliptic curve in Weierstrass form over an arbitrary ring we have $nP =…
An algorithm is given to compute a normal form for hyperelliptic curves. The elliptic case has been treated in a previous paper. In this paper the hyperelliptic case is treated.
Consider a modular curve $X_G$ defined over a number field $K$, where $G$ is a subgroup of $GL_2(\mathbb{Z}/N\mathbb{Z})$ with $N>2$. The curve $X_G$ comes with a morphism $j: X_G\to \mathbb{P}^1_K=\mathbb{A}^1_K \cup\{\infty\}$ to the…
In 2017, D. Skabelund constructed a maximal curve over $\mathbb{F}_{q^4}$ as a cyclic cover of the Suzuki curve. In this paper we explicitly determine the structure of the Weierstrass semigroup at any point $P$ of the Skabelund curve. We…
We study the $k[G]$-module structure of the space of holomorphic differentials of a curve defined over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic, for a cyclic group $G$ of order $p^\ell n$. We also study the relation to the…
Consider a hyperelliptic curve of genus $2$ over a field $K$ of characteristic zero. After extending $K$ we can view it as a marked curve with its $6$ Weierstrass points. We classify the structure of the potentially stable reduction of such…
For a connected, locally path connected space $X$, let $H$ be a subgroup of the fundamental group of $X$, $\pi_1(X,x)$. We show that there exists an open cover $\cal U$ of $X$ such that $H$ contains the Spanier group $\pi({\U},x)$ if and…
Let $k,r \geq 2$ be two integers. We consider the problem of partitioning the hyperedge set of an $r$-uniform hypergraph $H$ into the minimum number $\chi_k'(H)$ of edge-disjoint subhypergraphs in which every vertex has either degree $0$ or…
In this paper, we study configurations of three rational points on the Hermitian curve over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$ and classify them according to their Weierstrass semigroups. For $q>3$, we show that the number of distinct semigroups of this…
The parameters of the AG codes on general linear groups are found. The hyperplane sections having the minimum (or maximum) number of rational points are determined.
