We consider translation surfaces with poles on surfaces. We shall prove that any finite group appears as the automorphism group of some translation surface with poles. As a direct consequence we obtain the existence of structures achieving…

We prove that for an endomorphism $f$ of an abelian manifold defined over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic, $ \chi_ {2q} (f) = \lambda_q (f) $. Note that this paper is based on recent results due to Fei Hu…

Let $R$ be an integral domain over a field $k$, and $G$ a subgroup of the automorphism group of the polynomial ring $R[x_1,..., x_n]$ over $R$. In this paper, we discuss when $G$ is diagonalizable under the assumption that $G$ is…

Let F be a local field of positive characteristic, and let G be either a Heisenberg group over F, or a certain (nonabelian) two-dimensional unipotent group over F. If H is an arithmetic subgroup of G, we provide an explicit description of…

We show that the vector bundle associated to a smooth projective connected finite covering of a simple complex abelian variety is ample (under a simple necessary condition). This result is obtained by showing that this bundle is M-regular…

In a previous paper we have classified the smooth projective symmetric G-varieties with Picard number one (and G semisimple). In this work we give a geometrical description of such varieties. In particular, we determine their group of…

Given a (singular, codimension 1) holomorphic foliation F on a complex projective manifold X, we study the group PsAut(X, F) of pseudo-automorphisms of X which preserve F ; more precisely, we seek sufficient conditions for a finite index…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety over $\mathbb{F}_q$. Let $h_A(t)$ be the characteristic polynomial of $A$. Rybakov showed that if $h_A(t)$ is squarefree and $G$ is any finite group with $|G| = h_A(1)$, then $G = A'(\mathbb{F}_q)$ for some…

A group G is (finitely) co-Hopfian if it does not contain any proper (finite-index) subgroups isomorphic to itself. We study finitely generated groups G that admit a descending chain of proper normal finite-index subgroups, each of which is…

For every finite collection C of abelian varieties over F_q, we produce an explicit upper bound on the genus of curves over F_q whose Jacobians are isogenous to a product of powers of elements of C.
