Let $C: y^2=f(x)$ be a hyperelliptic curve of genus $g\geq 1$, defined over a complete discretely valued field $K$, with ring of integers $O_K$. Under certain conditions on $C$, mild when residue characteristic is not $2$, we explicitly…

We give an Arakelov theoretic proof of the equality of conductor and discriminant for arithmetic surfaces over number fields. This was first proved by T. Saito for relative curves over discrete valuation rings.

We study hyperelliptic curves y^2=f(x) over local fields of odd residue characteristic. We introduce the notion of a "cluster picture" associated to the curve, that describes the p-adic distances between the roots of f(x), and show that…

Consider a hyperelliptic curve of genus $2$ over a field $K$ of characteristic zero. After extending $K$ we can view it as a marked curve with its $6$ Weierstrass points. We classify the structure of the potentially stable reduction of such…

An irreducible smooth projective curve over $\mathbb{F}\_q$ is called \textit{pointless} if it has no $\mathbb{F}\_q$-rational points. In this paper we study the lower existence bound on the genus of such a curve over a fixed finite field…

Let $C$ be a hyperelliptic curve over a local field $K$ with odd residue characteristic, defined by some affine Weierstrass equation $y^2=f(x)$. We assume that $C$ has semistable reduction and denote by $\mathcal{X} \rightarrow…

We describe normal forms and minimal models of Picard curves, discussing various arithmetic aspects of these. We determine all so-called special Picard curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ with good reduction outside 2 and 3, and use this to determine…

Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve of conductor $N=p^2M$ where $p$ is an odd prime not dividing $M$. Let $\mathcal{O}_f$ be the order of conductor $f$ (relatively prime to $N$) in an imaginary quadratic field $K$ in which $p$ is inert…

Consider a hyperelliptic curve of genus $g$ over a field $K$ of characteristic zero. After extending $K$ we can view it as a marked curve with its $2g+2$ Weierstrass points. We present an explicit algorithm to compute the stable reduction…

We prove two related concentration inequalities concerning the number of rational points of hyperelliptic curves over subsets of a finite field. In particular, we investigate the probability of a large discrepancy between the numbers of…

For an algebraic function field $F/K$ and a discrete valuation $v$ of $K$ with perfect residue field $k$, we bound the number of discrete valuations on $F$ extending $v$ whose residue fields are algebraic function fields of genus zero over…

We show that no arithmetic invariant strictly smaller than the conductor of an elliptic curve over \( \mathbb{Q} \) can appear in a functional equation governing the analytic continuation of an associated \( L \)-function of degree two. In…

In this paper, we show an inequality between the degrees of the conductor and the Hodge fiber of a hyperelliptic curve above a discrete valuation ring. For that we have to show theorems about the lifting of $p$-cyclic covers in order to…

Tate's algorithm tells us that for an elliptic curve $E$ over a local field $K$ of residue characteristic $\geq 5$, $E/K$ has potentially good reduction if and only if $\text{ord}(j_E)\geq 0$. It also tells us that when $E/K$ is semistable…

It is shown that a valuation of residue characteristic different from $2$ and $3$ on a field $E$ has at most one extension to the function field of an elliptic curve over $E$, for which the residue field extension is transcendental but not…

We show that for any elliptic curve (with j invariant not 0 or 1728) over any field of characteristic different from 2 and 3, there exists an hyperelliptic curve H of genus 5 with two independent maps to the given elliptic curve. We also…

We study residually transcendental extensions of a valuation $v$ on a field $E$ to function fields of hyperelliptic curves over $E$. We show that $v$ has at most finitely many extensions to the function field of a hyperelliptic curve over…

Let $K$ be a complete discretely valued field of residue characteristic not $2$ and $O_K$ its ring of integers. We explicitly construct a regular model over $O_K$ with strict normal crossings of any hyperelliptic curve $C/K:y^2=f(x)$. For…
