We study the conductor of Picard curves over $\mathbb{Q}$, which is a product of local factors. Our results are based on previous results on stable reduction of superelliptic curves that allow to compute the conductor exponent $f_p$ at the…

For r=6,7,...,11 we find an elliptic curve E/Q of rank at least r and the smallest conductor known, improving on the previous records by factors ranging from 1.0136 (for r=6) to over 100 (for r=10 and r=11). We describe our search methods,…

Inspired by methods of N. P. Smart, we describe an algorithm to determine all Picard curves over Q with good reduction away from 3, up to Q-isomorphism. A correspondence between the isomorphism classes of such curves and certain quintic…

We prove an inequality between the conductor and the discriminant for all hyperelliptic curves defined over discretely valued fields $K$ with perfect residue field of characteristic not 2. Specifically, if such a curve is given by $y^2 =…

We give a bound on the primes dividing the denominators of invariants of Picard curves of genus 3 with complex multiplication. Unlike earlier bounds in genus 2 and 3, our bound is based not on bad reduction of curves, but on a very explicit…

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 $\mathrm{char}\ k > 2g+1$. Let $S = \mathrm{Spec}\ R$. Let $X$ be the…

We determine the distribution of the conductors $N$ of rational elliptic curves when ordered by naive height $H$, in the form of an explicit density function for the ratios $N/H$. Our work is essentially an effective version of the…

The aim of this paper is to classify reduction types of algebraic curves. Reduction types capture the discrete invariants of fibres in one-dimensional families of curves, and they have been described in genus 1, 2 and 3. For fixed genus…

We present a database of rational elliptic curves, up to Q-isomorphism, with good reduction outside {2,3,5,7,11,13}. We provide a heuristic involving the abc and BSD conjectures that the database is likely to be the complete set of such…

We give an explicit formula for wild conductor exponents of plane curves over $\mathbb{Q}_p$ in terms of standard invariants of explicit extensions of $\mathbb{Q}_p$, generalising a formula for hyperelliptic curves. To do so, we prove a…

We give an algorithm to compute the conductor for curves of genus 2. It is based on the analysis of 3-torsion of the Jacobian for genus 2 curves over 2-adic fields.

We classify ACM curves contained in a surface of degree d in $\mathbb{P}^{3}$ in terms of weak admissible pairs. In the case of a very general smooth determinantal quartic surface, we provide a geometric description of these curves and…

We study the minimal resultant divisor of self-maps of the projective line over a number field or a function field and its relation to the conductor. The guiding focus is the exploration of a dynamical analog to Theorem 1.1, which bounds…

We characterize the curves in $ P^3$ which are minimal in their biliaison class. Such curves are exactly the curves which do no admit an elementary descending biliaison. As a consequence we have that every curve in $P^3$ can be obtained…

Following the work of Mestre, we use Weil's explicit formulas to compute explicit lower bounds on the conductors of elliptic curves and abelian varieties over number fields. Moreover, we obtain bounds for the conductor of elliptic curves…

In this paper we give an algorithm of how to determine a Weierstrass equation with minimal discriminant for superelliptic curves generalizing work of Tate for elliptic curves and Liu for genus 2 curves.

Isogenous elliptic curves have the same conductor but not necessarily the same minimal discriminant ideal. In this article, we explicitly classify all $p^2$-isogenous elliptic curves defined over a number field with the same minimal…

In this article, we study the family of elliptic curves $E/\mathbb{Q}$, having good reduction at $2$ and $3$, and whose $j$-invariants are small. Within this set of elliptic curves, we consider the following two subfamilies: first, the set…

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 list the elliptic curves defined over $Q(\sqrt 5)$ with good reduction away from 2. There are 368 isomorphism classes. We give a global minimal model for each class.
