We construct an explicit topological model (similar to the topological Springer fibers appearing in work of Khovanov and Russell) for every two-row Springer fiber associated with the even orthogonal group and prove that the respective…

We analyze the distribution of unitarized L-polynomials Lp(T) (as p varies) obtained from a hyperelliptic curve of genus g <= 3 defined over Q. In the generic case, we find experimental agreement with a predicted correspondence (based on…

In this paper, we explicitly determine the automorphism group of every nonhyperelliptic superspecial curve of genus $4$ over $\mathbb{F}_{11}$. Our algorithm determining automorphism groups works for any nonhyperelliptic curves of genus $4$…

We give an efficient algorithm to compute equations of twists of hyperelliptic curves of arbitrary genus over any separable field (of characteristic different from 2), and we explicitly describe some interesting examples.

In this paper, we study the $p$-Selmer groups in the family of $p$-twists of an elliptic curve $E$ over a number field $K$. We prove that if $E/K$ is an elliptic curve over a number field $K$, and if $d$ is congruent to the dimension of the…

Under a hypothesis which is slightly stronger than the Riemann Hypothesis for elliptic curve $L$-functions, we show that both the average analytic rank and the average algebraic rank of elliptic curves in families of quadratic twists are…

Let G be a simple and simply connected complex linear algebraic group. In this paper, we discuss the generalization of the parabolic construction of holomorphic principal G-bundles over a smooth elliptic curve to the case of a singular…

The family of symmetric powers of an $L$-function associated with an elliptic curve with complex multiplication has received much attention from algebraic, automorphic and p-adic points of view. Here we examine one explicit such family from…

We study the averages of products of traces of high powers of the Frobenius class of hyperelliptic curves of genus g over a fixed finite field. We show that for increasing genus g, the limiting expectation of these products equals to the…

Motivated by previous computations in Garcia, Stichtenoth and Xing (2000) paper ,we discuss the spectrum $\mathbf{M}(q^2)$ for the genera of maximal curves over finite fields of order $q^2$ with $7\leq q\leq 16$. In particular, by using a…

There are 26 possibilities for the torsion group of elliptic curves defined over quadratic number fields. We present examples of high rank elliptic curves with given torsion group which give the current records for most of the torsion…

Elementary sub-Riemannian geometry on the Heisenberg group H(n) provides a compact picture of symplectic geometry. Any Hamiltonian diffeomorphism on $R^{2n}$ lifts to a volume preserving bi-Lipschitz homeomorphisms of H(n), with the use of…

Given a 2-manifold, a fundamental question to ask is which groups can be realized as the isometry group of a Riemannan metric of constant curvature on the manifold. In this paper, we give a nearly complete classification of such groups for…

We produce explicit elliptic curves over \Bbb F_p(t) whose Mordell-Weil groups have arbitrarily large rank. Our method is to prove the conjecture of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer for these curves (or rather the Tate conjecture for related…

Fix a finite field. A hyperelliptic curve determines a measure on the discrete space of rank two bundles on the projective line: the mass of a given vector bundle is the number of line bundles whose pushforward it is. In a sequence of…

We characterise genus 3 complex smooth hyperelliptic curves that contain two additional involutions as curves that can be build from five points in $\mathbb{P}^1$ with a distinguished triple. We are able to write down explicit equations for…

One of the big questions in the area of curves over finite fields concerns the distribution of the numbers of points: Which numbers occur as the number of points on a curve of genus $g$? The same question can be asked of various subclasses…

We present a framework for constructing examples of smooth projective curves over number fields with explicitly given elements in their second K-group using elementary algebraic geometry. This leads to new examples for hyperelliptic curves…

We prove that for any pair of integers 0\leq r\leq g such that g\geq 3 or r>0, there exists a (hyper)elliptic curve C over F_2 of genus g and 2-rank r whose automorphism group consists of only identity and the (hyper)elliptic involution. As…

In this short note we determine the set $\Phi^\infty(7)$ of Abelian groups that appear as torsion groups of infinitely many elliptic curves (up to $\overline \mathbb Q$-isomorphism) over number fields of degree 7.
