We present experimental evidence to support the widely held belief that one half of all elliptic curves have infinitely many rational points. The method used to gather this evidence is a refinement of an algorithm due to the author which is…
We prove the existence of non-trivial phase transitions for the intersection of two independent random interlacements and the complement of the intersection. Some asymptotic results about the phase curves are also obtained. Moreover, we…
In this paper we classify curves of genus two over a perfect field k of characteristic two. We find rational models of curves with a given arithmetic structure for the ramification divisor and we give necessary and sufficient conditions for…
We construct examples of families of curves of genus 2 or 3 over Q whose Jacobians split completely and have various large rational torsion subgroups. For example, the rational points on a certain elliptic surface over P^1 of positive rank…
We study thresholds for the appearance of a 2-core in random hypergraphs that are a mixture of a constant number of random uniform hypergraphs each with a linear number of edges but with different edge sizes. For the case of two overlapping…
The Separatrix Theorem of C. Camacho and P. Sad guarantees the existence of invariant curve (separatrix) passing through the singularity of germ of holomorphic foliation on complex surface, when the surface underlying the foliation is…
We compute generators and relations for the section ring of a rational divisor on an elliptic curve. Our technique generalizes the work of O'Dorney (in genus zero) and Voight--Zureick-Brown (for specific divisors arising from the study of…
In this paper, we establish a second main theorem for holomorphic curve intersecting hypersurfaces in general position in projective space with level of truncation. As an application, we reduce the number hypersurfaces in uniqueness problem…
We exhibit planar, rational curves of large degree over ${\mathbb F}_2$ that have a unique singular point, which has multiplicity 2. In characteristic 0 such curves exist only for degrees up to $6$. v.2: references updated and examples of…
Given a hyperbolic surface $\Sigma$ of genus $g$ with $r$ cusps, Mirzakhani proved that the number of closed geodesics of length at most $L$ and of a given type is asymptotic to $cL^{6g-6+2r}$ for some $c>0$. Since a closed geodesic…
The moduli spaces of trigonal curves are proven to be rational when the genus is divisible by 4.
We compute the intersections between the automorphism strata and the pullback by the Torelli map of the Ekedahl-Oort strata inside the moduli space of genus two curves. We first describe explicitly which possible automorphism groups a genus…
This paper explores the relationship between closed curves on surfaces and their intersections. Like Dehn-Thurston coordinates for simple curves, we explore how to determine closed curves using the number of times they intersect other…
We consider coverings of real algebraic curves to real rational algebraic curves. We show the existence of such coverings having prescribed topological degree on the real locus. From those existence results we prove some results on…
We study genus 2 covers of relative elliptic curves over an arbitrary base in which 2 is invertible. Particular emphasis lies on the case that the covering degree is 2. We show that the data in the "basic construction" of genus 2 covers of…
The transition states and dividing surfaces used to find rate constants for bimolecular reactions are shown to undergo qualitative changes, known as Morse bifurcations, and to exist for a large range of energies, not just immediately above…
We give an upper bound for the degree of rational curves in a family that covers a given birational ruled surface in projective space. The upper bound is stated in terms of the degree, sectional genus and arithmetic genus of the surface. We…
Let $\Sigma$ be a smooth projective surface, let $f' : S' \to \Sigma$ be a double cover of $\Sigma$ and let $\mu : S \to S'$ be the canonical resolution. Put $f = f'\circ\mu$. An irreducible curve $C$ on $\Sigma$ is said to be a splitting…
In this paper, we study the exact multiplicity and bifurcation curves of positive solutions for the semipositone problem defined on the interval from minus one to one, with zero boundary conditions at both ends. The function f is twice…
We obtain a new bound on the number of two-rich points spanned by an arrangement of low degree algebraic curves in $\mathbb{R}^4$. Specifically, we show that an arrangement of $n$ algebraic curves determines at most $C_\epsilon…
