We prove an analogue of Belyi's theorem in characteristic two. Our proof consists of the following three steps. We first introduce a new notion called "pseudo-tame" for morphisms between curves over an algebraically closed field of…

We show that every smooth projective curve over a finite field k admits a finite tame morphism to the projective line over k. Furthermore, we construct a curve with no such map when k is an infinite perfect field of characteristic two. Our…

The purpose of the present paper is to give an effective version of the noncritical $p$-tame Belyi theorem. That is to say, we compute explicitly an upper bound of the minimal degree of tamely ramified Belyi maps in positive characteristic…

The famous theorem of Belyi can be viewed as a characterization of compact Riemann surfaces which admit a non-empty open subset uniformized by a subgroup of $SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ of finite index. I show that if $q\geq 5$, then ${\bf F}_q(T)$…

We give a Belyi-type characterisation of smooth complete intersections of general type over $\mathbb{C}$ which can be defined over $\bar{\mathbb{Q}}$. Our proof uses the higher-dimensional analogue of the Shafarevich boundedness conjecture…

Belyi's theorem asserts that a smooth projective curve $X$ defined over a number field can be realized as a cover of the projective line unramified outside three points. In this short paper we investigate the bejaviour of the minimal degree…

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.

We develop a Belyi type theory that applies to Klein surfaces, i.e. (possibly non-orientable) surfaces with boundary which carry a dianalytic structure. In particular we extend Belyi's famous theorem from Riemann surfaces to Klein surfaces.

We give an elementary, self-contained and quick proof of Belyi's theorem. As a by-product of our proof we obtain an explicit bound for the degree of the defining number field of a Belyi surface.

We investigate the K($\pi$,1)-property for p of smooth, marked curves (X,T) defined over finite fields of characteristic p. We prove that (X,T) has the K($\pi$,1)-property if X is affine and give positive and negative examples in the proper…

We classify projective plane nonsingular curves admitting a 3-term presentation; they exist in any degree, generally constitute 5 birational families and are defined over rational numbers. The Belyi functions on all these curves are…

Families of translates and homothets of strictly convex curves are proven to possess Helly-type properties generalizing those of a circle. Weaker results are shown for arbitrary convex curves.

Sometimes, it is very important to consider what type of setting is assumed when studying a mathematical object. For example, in Galois theory, properties can completely change if we study a field extension over $F_p$ instead of a field…

We generalize the toric Bertini theorem of Fuchs, Mantova, and Zannier to positive characteristic. A key part of the proof is a new algebraically closed field containing the field \kk(t_1,\dots,t_d) of rational functions over an…

It is known that sometimes a Belyi pair is not defined over its field of moduli. Instead, it is defined over a finite degree extension of its field of moduli, called a field of definition. We show that given a number $m$ there exists a…

Using the higher tame symbol and Kawada and Satake's Witt vector method, A. N. Parshin developed class field theory for higher local fields, defining reciprocity maps separately for the tamely ramified and wildly ramified cases. We extend…

We give a function field specific, algebraic proof of the main results of class field theory for abelian extensions of degree coprime to the characteristic. By adapting some methods known for number fields and combining them in a new way,…

We study hyperbolic curves and their Jacobians over finite fields in the context of anabelian geometry.

We prove control theorems for abelian varieties over function fields.

We study the behavior of theta characteristics on an algebraic curve under the specialization map to a tropical curve. We show that each effective theta characteristic on the tropical curve is the specialization of $2^{g-1}$ even theta…
