We show the possible Milnor numbers of deformations of semi-quasi-homogeneous isolated plane curve singularities. In Theorem 1.1 we list integers can be attained as Milnor numbers of a given semi-quasi-homogeneous singularity.

We study the duality of moduli of k- and (n-k)-dimensional slices of euclidean n-cubes, and establish the optimal upper bound 1.

We present a lower bound on the Kronecker coefficients for tensor squares of the symmetric group via the characters of~$S_n$, which we apply to obtain various explicit estimates. Notably, we extend Sylvester's unimodality of $q$-binomial…

We give a formula to compute the dimension of the generic component of the moduli space of an irreducible germ of curve in the complex plane.

We aim to characterise boundedness of commutators $[b,T]$ of singular integrals $T$. Boundedness is studied between weighted Lebesgue spaces $L^p(X)$ and $L^q(X)$, $p\leq q$, when the underlying space $X$ is a space of homogeneous type.…

Let $A$ be an abelian surface over $\mathbb{Q}$ whose geometric endomorphism ring is a maximal order in a non-split quaternion algebra. Inspired by Mazur's theorem for elliptic curves, we show that the torsion subgroup of $A(\mathbb{Q})$ is…

We study the moduli of trigonal curves. We establish the exact upper bound of ${36(g+1)}/(5g+1)$ for the slope of trigonal fibrations. Here, the slope of any fibration $X\to B$ of stable curves with smooth general member is the ratio…

In this paper, we study twisted arithmetic divisors on the modular curve X_0(N) with N square-free. For each pair (\Delta, r) where \Delta >0 and \Delta \equiv r^2 \mod 4N, we constructed a twisted arithmetic theta function \phi_{\Delta,…

We show that for primes $N, p \geq 5$ with $N \equiv -1 \bmod p$, the class number of $\mathbb{Q}(N^{1/p})$ is divisible by $p$. Our methods are via congruences between Eisenstein series and cusp forms. In particular, we show that when $N…

In this paper we consider a special class of arithmetic quotients of bounded symmetric domains which can roughly be described as higher- dimensional analogues of the Hilbert modular varities. The algebraic groups are defined as the unitary…

Let $E_1, E_2 / \mathbb{C}$ be non-isomorphic elliptic curves with complex multiplication. We prove that the pair $(E_1, E_2)$ is characterised, up to isomorphism, by the difference $j(E_1) - j(E_2)$ of the respective $j$-invariants. In…

We derive equations for the modular curve $X_{ns}(11)$ associated to a non-split Cartan subgroup of $\,\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbf{F}_{11})$. This allows us to compute the automorphism group of the curve and show that it is isomorphic to Klein's…

The classical De Jonquieres and MacDonald formulas describe the virtual number of divisors with prescribed multiplicities in a linear system on an algebraic curve. We establish an essentially optimal result concerning the enumerative…

We prove relations among the classes of certain divisors on the moduli spaces of curves with marked points, generalizing the Brill-Noether Ray Theorem of Eisenbud and Harris.

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$, and let $\mathbb{Q}^{ab}$ be the maximal abelian extension of $\mathbb{Q}$. In this article we classify the groups that can arise as $E(\mathbb{Q}^{ab})_{\text{tors}}$ up to…

In this mostly expository paper we review several known results about the cohomology of moduli spaces of smooth and stable curves, focusing in particular on low degree cohomology. We also give a new proof of Harer's theorem describing the…

Let E be an elliptic curve over Q, and let n=>1. The central object of study of this article is the division field Q(E[n]) that results by adjoining to Q the coordinates of all n-torsion points on E(Q). In particular, we classify all curves…

We establish a lower bound for the size of possible counterexamples of the Dixmier Conjecture. We prove that $B>15$, where $B$ is the minimum of the greatest common divisor of the total degrees of $P$ and $Q$, where $(P,Q)$ runs over the…

Let $\ell$ and $n$ be positive integers with $\ell$ prime. The modular curves $X_1(\ell^n)$ and $X_0(\ell^n)$ are algebraic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ whose non-cuspidal points parameterize elliptic curves with a distinguished point of order…

In a recent paper, we proved that for any large enough odd modulus $q\in \mathbb{N}$ and fixed $\alpha_2\in \mathbb{N}$ coprime to $q$, the congruence \[ x_1^2+\alpha_2x_2^2+\alpha_3x_3^2\equiv 0 \bmod{q} \] has a solution of…
