We compute the auto-correlations functions of order $m\ge 1$ for the characteristic polynomials of random matrices from certain subgroups of the unitary groups $\U(2)$ and $\U(3)$ by applying branching rules. These subgroups can be…
The vertical Sato--Tate conjectures gives expected trace distributions for for families of curves. We develop exact expression for the distribution associated to degree-$4$ representations of $\mathrm{USp}(4)$,…
We apply some of the latest techniques from machine-learning to the arithmetic of hyperelliptic curves. More precisely we show that, with impressive accuracy and confidence (between 99 and 100 percent precision), and in very short time…
We consider the distribution of normalized Frobenius traces for two families of genus 3 hyperelliptic curves over Q that have large automorphism groups: y^2=x^8+c and y^2=x^7-cx with c in Q*. We give efficient algorithms to compute the…
We describe the analogue of the Sato-Tate conjecture for an abelian variety over a number field; this predicts that the zeta functions of the reductions over various finite fields, when properly normalized, have a limiting distribution…
In a previous work, the second-named author gave a complete description of the action of automorphisms on the ordinary irreducible characters of the finite symplectic groups. We generalise this in two directions. Firstly, using work of the…
A new family of strongly regular graphs, called the general symplectic graphs $Sp(2\nu, q)$, associated with nonsingular alternate matrices is introduced. Their parameters as strongly regular graphs, their chromatic numbers as well as their…
Let C/Q be the genus 3 Picard curve given by the affine model y^3=x^4-x. In this paper we compute its Sato-Tate group, show the generalized Sato-Tate conjecture for C, and compute the statistical moments for the limiting distribution of the…
We consider the curves $y^2=x^{2^m} -1$ and $y^2=x^{2^{d}+1}-x$ over the rationals. These curves are related via their associated Jacobian varieties in that the Jacobians of the latter appear as factors of the Jacobians of the former. One…
In this article, we propose to use the character theory of compact Lie groups and their orthogonality relations for the study of Frobenius distribution and Sato-Tate groups. The results show the advantages of this new approach in several…
We analyze the distribution of unitarized L-polynomials Lp(T) (as p varies) obtained from a hyperelliptic curve of genus g <= 3 defined over Q. In the generic case, we find experimental agreement with a predicted correspondence (based on…
Formulas for the expansion of arbitrary invariant group functions in terms of the characters for the Sp(2N), SO(2N+1), and SO(2N) groups are derived using a combinatorial method. The method is similar to one used by Balantekin to expand…
In this paper, we determine the reduced automorphism groups of hyperelliptic curves of a small genus in characteristic $2$, when they are of $2$-rank $0$. Such a curve is an Artin-Schreier curve defined in the form $y^2-y=f(x)$ for a…
We obtain new results concerning the Sato-Tate conjecture on the distribution of Frobenius traces over single and double parametric families of elliptic curves. We consider these curves for values of parameters having prescribed arithmetic…
We determine the Sato-Tate groups and prove the generalized Sato-Tate conjecture for the Jacobians of curves of the form $$ y^2=x^p-1 \text{ and } y^2=x^{2p}-1,$$ where $p$ is an odd prime. Our results rely on the fact the Jacobians of…
We establish the group-theoretic classification of Sato-Tate groups of self-dual motives of weight 3 with rational coefficients and Hodge numbers h^{3,0} = h^{2,1} = h^{1,2} = h^{0,3} = 1. We then describe families of motives that realize…
In this expository article we explore the relationship between Galois representations, motivic L-functions, Mumford-Tate groups, and Sato-Tate groups, and we give an explicit formulation of the Sato-Tate conjecture for abelian varieties as…
Let $\cC$ be a smooth absolutely irreducible curve of genus $g \ge 1$ defined over $\F_q$, the finite field of $q$ elements. Let $# \cC(\F_{q^n})$ be the number of $\F_{q^n}$-rational points on $\cC$. Under a certain multiplicative…
We obtain asymptotic formulae for the number of primes $p\le x$ for which the reduction modulo $p$ of the elliptic curve $$ \E_{a,b} : Y^2 = X^3 + aX + b $$ satisfies certain ``natural'' properties, on average over integers $a$ and $b$ with…
We compute in a direct (not algorithmic) way the zeta function of all supersingular curves of genus 2 over a finite field k, with many geometric automorphisms. We display these computations in an appendix where we select a family of…
