We show that the skeleton of the Deligne-Mumford-Knudsen moduli stack of stable curves is naturally identified with the moduli space of extended tropical curves, and that this is compatible with the "naive" set-theoretic tropicalization…

It is well-known that abelian varieties are projective, and so that there exist explicit polynomial and rational functions which define both the variety and its group law. It is however difficult to find any explicit polynomial and rational…

The aim of the present paper is to study the (abstract) Picard group and the Picard group scheme of the moduli stack of stable pointed curves over an arbitrary scheme. As a byproduct, we compute the Picard groups of the moduli stack of…

We define the Laplacian matrix and the Jacobian group of a finite graph of groups. We prove analogues of the matrix tree theorem and the class number formula for the order of the Jacobian of a graph of groups. Given a group $G$ acting on a…

We prove that there exist some stacks, representable over the stack of stable curves, having the following universal property with respect to N\'eron models of Jacobians. For every one-parameter family of stable curves, with regular total…

We determine the rational divisor class group of the moduli spaces of smooth pointed hyperelliptic curves and of their Deligne-Mumford compactification, over the field of complex numbers.

We present an algorithm for solving the discrete logarithm problem in Jacobians of families of plane curves whose degrees in $X$ and $Y$ are low with respect to their genera. The finite base fields $\FF_q$ are arbitrary, but their sizes…

We construct the moduli stack of properly balanced vector bundles on semistable curves and we determine explicitly its Picard group. As a consequence, we obtain an explicit description of the Picard groups of the universal moduli stack of…

Let K be an algebraically closed field which is complete with respect to a nontrivial, non-Archimedean valuation and let \Lambda be its value group. Given a smooth, proper, connected K-curve X and a skeleton \Gamma of the Berkovich…

This paper is concerned with the complexity and stability of arithmetic operations in the jacobian variety of curves over the field of complex numbers, as the genus grows to infinity. We focus on modular curves. Efficient and stable…

We show that a particular subfunctor of the relative logarithmic Picard functor for families of aligned, log semistable curves over a regular base scheme and smooth over an open dense subscheme of the base is representable by a smooth…

We examine the existence of rational divisors on modular curves of $\mathcal{D}$-elliptic sheaves and on Atkin-Lehner quotients of these curves over local fields. Using a criterion of Poonen and Stoll, we show that in infinitely many cases…

We use methods for computing Picard numbers of reductions of K3 surfaces in order to study the decomposability of Jacobians over number fields and the variance of Mordell-Weil ranks of families of Jacobians over different ground fields. For…

We study the arithmetic of abelian varieties over $K=k(t)$ where $k$ is an arbitrary field. The main result relates Mordell-Weil groups of certain Jacobians over $K$ to homomorphisms of other Jacobians over $k$. Our methods also yield…

We use the theory of logarithmic line bundles to construct compactifications of spaces of roots of a line bundle on a family of curves, generalising work of a number of authors. This runs via a study of the torsion in the tropical and…

This paper gives a conjectural characterization of those elliptic curves over the field of complex numbers which "should" be covered by standard modular curves. The elliptic curves in question all have algebraic j-invariant, so they can be…

In this paper, we investigate the rigidity of the stable comodule category of a specific class of Hopf algebroids known as finite Adams, shedding light on its Picard group. Then we establish a reduction process through base changes,…

We define a generalized Jacobian $\mathrm{J}_\mathfrak{m}(\mathit{Gr})$ and a generalized Picard group $\mathrm{P}_\mathfrak{m}(\mathit{Gr})$ of a graph $\mathit{Gr}$ with respect to a modulus $ \mathfrak{m}=\sum_{i=1}^s m_iw_i$ with $w_i$…

The discrete logarithm problem in Jacobians of curves of high genus $g$ over finite fields $\FF_q$ is known to be computable with subexponential complexity $L_{q^g}(1/2, O(1))$. We present an algorithm for a family of plane curves whose…

We show that the Jacobians of prestable curves over toroidal varieties always admit N\'eron models. These models are rarely quasi-compact or separated, but we also give a complete classification of quasi-compact separated group-models of…
