Let $\Sigma_{g'}\to \Sigma_g$ be a cover of an orientable surface of genus g by an orientable surface of genus g', branched at n points, with Galois group H. Such a cover induces a virtual action of the mapping class group…

Simple properties of the Gauss map characterise important classes of surfaces in $\Rq$: $R$-surfaces, the real version of plane complex curves; Lagrangean surfaces; isoclinic surfaces.

One interpretation of Torelli's Theorem, which asserts that a compact Riemann Surface $X$ of genus $g > 1$ is determined by the $g(g+1)/2$ entries of the period matrix, is that the period matrix is a message about $X$. Since this message…

The concept of an adapted homology basis for a prime order conformal automorphism of a compact Riemann surface extends to arbitrary finite groups of conformal automorphisms. Here we compute some examples of adapted homology bases for some…

Let $N$ be a connected nonorientable surface of genus $g$ with $n$ punctures. Suppose that $g$ is odd and $g+n \geqslant 6$. We prove that the automorphism group of the complex of curves of $N$ is isomorphic to the mapping class group…

The dependence of the Virasoro-$N$-point function on the moduli of the Riemann surface is investigated. We propose an algebraic geometric approach that applies to any hyperelliptic Riemann surface.

Herein we prove that if $M$ is a compact oriented Riemann surface of genus $g$, and $M^{[n]}$ is the classifying space of $n$ distinct, unordered points on $M$, then the kernel of the map $\pi_1(M^{[n]})\to H_1(M)$ is generated by…

This work presents the conjugacy classes of finite abelian subgroups of the Cremona group of the plane. Using a well-known theory, this problem amounts to the study of automorphism groups of some Del Pezzo surfaces and conic bundles. We…

Let $\Gamma_g$ be the fundamental group of a closed connected orientable surface of genus $g\geq2$. We introduce a combinatorial structure of "core surfaces", that represent subgroups of $\Gamma_g$. These structures are (usually)…

We solve a problem in enumerative combinatorics which is equivalent to counting topological types of certain group actions on compact Riemann surfaces. Let $V_2(F_p)$ be the two-dimensional vector space over $F_p$, the field with $p$…

Let $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n}$ be the moduli stack parametrizing Deligne-Mumford stable $n$-pointed genus $g$ curves and let $\overline{M}_{g,n}$ be its coarse moduli space: the Deligne-Mumford compactification of the moduli space of…

We study the automorphisms of modular curves associated to Cartan subgroups of $\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbb Z/n\mathbb Z)$ and certain subgroups of their normalizers. We prove that if $n$ is large enough, all the automorphisms are induced by the…

Generalising an example by Girondo and Wolfart, we use finite group theory to construct Riemann surfaces admitting two or more regular dessins (i.e. orientably regular hypermaps) with automorphism groups of the same order, and in many cases…

The group PGL(3) of linear transformations of the projective plane acts naturally on the projective space parametrizing curves of a given degree. In this note we begin the study of the orbits of smooth curves under this action: we construct…

Meromorphic differentials on Riemann surfaces are said to be real-normalized if all their periods are real. Moduli spaces of real-normalized differentials on Riemann surfaces of given genus with prescribed orders of their poles and residues…

The division of compact Riemann surfaces into 3 cases K_C<0, g=0, or K_C=0, g=1, or K_C>0, g>=2 is well known, and corresponds to the familiar trichotomy of spherical, Euclidean and hyperbolic non-Euclidean plane geometry. Classification…

The article covers the unique complex K3 surface with maximal Picard rank and discriminant four. We discuss smooth, rational curves and identify generators of its automorphism group with certain Cremona transformations of $\mathbb{P}^2$.…

We construct higher genus Riemann's minimal surfaces properly embedded in the Euclidean space. To do that we glue end by end a Costa-Hoffman-Meeks examples to two halves genus zero Riemann's minimal surfaces. In first we need to perform a…

Let S be any orientable surface of infinite genus with a finite number of boundary components. In this work we consider the curve complex C(S), the nonseparating curve complex N(S) and the Schmutz graph G(S) of S. When all the topological…

We study extremal properties of the determinant of the Laplacian in the Bergman metric on the moduli space of compact genus two Riemann surfaces. By a combination of analytical and numerical methods we identify four non-degenerate critical…
