We give practical numerical methods to compute the period matrix of a plane algebraic curve (not necessarily smooth). We show how automorphisms and isomorphisms of such curves, as well as the decomposition of their Jacobians up to isogeny,…

We survey recent developments on rationality problems for algebraic varieties, with a particular emphasis on cycle-theoretic and combinatorial methods and their applications to hypersurfaces.

Given a complex algebraic variety X, we define a natural number called the motivic dimension which measures the amount of transcendental (co)homology of X. It is zero precisely when all the (co)homolgy is spanned by algebraic cycles. Most…

Let $f : X \to S$ be a family of smooth projective algebraic varieties over a smooth connected base $S$, with everything defined over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$. Denote by $\mathbb{V} = R^{2i} f_{*} \mathbb{Z}(i)$ the associated integral…

This paper explains how, following the representation of 3D crystallographic space groups in Clifford's geometric algebra, it is further possible to similarly represent the 162 so called subperiodic groups of crystallography in Clifford's…

Let $X$ be a complex smooth projective variety of dimension $d$. Under some assumption on the cohomology of $X$, we construct mutually orthogonal idempotents in $CH_d(X \times X) \otimes \Q$ whose action on algebraically trivial cycles…

We extend our method to compute division polynomials of Jacobians of curves over Q to curves over Q(t), in view of computing mod ell Galois representations occurring in the \'etale cohomology of surfaces over Q. Although the division…

We enumerate complex algebraic hypersurfaces in $P^n$, of a given (high) degree with one singular point of a given singularity type. Our approach is to compute the (co)homology classes of the corresponding equi-singular strata in the…

The topology of periodic spaces has attracted a lot of interest in recent years in order to study and classify crystalline structures and other large homogeneous data sets, such as the distribution of galaxies in cosmology. In practice,…

We report on a new approach, as well as some related experiments, to construct families of K3 surfaces having real or complex multiplication. The approach is based on an explicit description of the transcendental part of the cohomology in a…

We present an algorithm to compute the torsion component $\mathrm{Pic}^\tau X$ of the Picard scheme of a smooth projective variety $X$ over a field $k$. Specifically, we describe $\mathrm{Pic}^\tau X$ as a closed subscheme of a projective…

We show the following algebraicity result for a complex projective variety $X$ with big representation of $\pi_1$ into a semi-simple algebraic group: There exists a proper subvariety $Z \subset X$ such that for any algebraic curve $C$, any…

We investigate a supersymmetric generalisation of topological recursion from two perspectives: algebraic and geometric. The algebraic side concerns a recursive structure encoded in modules of a super Virasoro algebra, and the geometric…
