Let C be a soluble smooth genus one curve over a Henselian discrete valuation field. There is a unique minimal Weierstrass equation defining C up to isomorphism. In this paper we consider genus one equations of degree n defining C, namely a…

Extending the results of [Asian J. Math. 2019], in [Doc. Math. \textbf{21}, 2016] we calculated explicitly the number of isomorphism classes of superspecial abelian surfaces over an arbitrary finite field of \textit{odd} degree over the…

We prove an unexpected general relation between the Jacobian syzygies of a projective hypersurface $V\subset \mathbb{P}^n$ with only isolated singularities and the nature of its singularities. This allows to establish a new method for the…

We describe the intersection of the Torelli locus $j(\mathcal{M}_4^{ct}) = \mathcal{J}_4$ with Newton and Ekedahl-Oort strata related to the supersingular locus in characteristic two. We show that the locus of supersingular Jacobians…

In algebraic geometry, it is important to provide effective parametrizations for families of curves, both in theory and in practice. In this paper, we present such an effective parametrization for the moduli of genus-$5$ curves that are…

For a curve which admits an abelian cover of the projective line branched at three points, we study when its reduction to positive characteristic is supersingular. Using the method of Shimura and Taniyama, we give a complete classification…

Recently Fukasawa, Homma and Kim introduced and studied certain projective singular curves over $\mathbb {F}_q$ with many extremal properties. Here we extend their definition to more general non-rational curves.

Let $C$ be a hyperelliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$, whose Weierstrass points are defined over extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$ of degree at most three, and at least one of them is rational. Generalizing a result of R. Soleng (in the case…

Let C be a complex smooth projective algebraic curve endowed with an action of a finite group G such that the quotient curve has genus at least 3. We prove that if the G-curve C is very general for these properties, then the natural map…

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic different from $2$, $\bar{K}$ its algebraic closure. Let $n \ge 3$ be an odd integer. Let $f(x)$ and $h(x)$ be degree $n$ polynomials with coefficients in $K$ and without repeated roots. Let us consider…

We introduce and study a new way to catagorize supersingular abelian varieties defined over a finite field by classifying them as fully maximal, mixed, or fully minimal. The type of $A$ depends on the normalized Weil numbers of $A$ and its…

We use class field theory to search for curves with many rational points over small finite fields. By going through abelian covers of curves of small genus we find a number of new curves. In particular, we settle the question of how many…

By reformulating and extending results of Elkies, we prove some results on $\mathbb Q$-curves over number fields of odd degree. We show that, over such fields, the only prime isogeny degrees~$\ell$ which an elliptic curve without CM may…

In algebraic geometry, superspecial curves are important research objects. While the number of superspecial genus-3 curves in characteristic $p$ is known, the number of hyperelliptic ones among them has not been determined even for small…

We enumerate plane complex algebraic curves of a given degree with one singularity of any given topological type. Our approach is to compute the homology classes of the corresponding equisingular strata in the parameter spaces of plane…

We obtain a recursive formula for the characteristic number of degree $d$ curves in $\mathbb{P}^2$ with prescribed singularities (of type $A_k$) that are tangent to a given line. The formula is in terms of the characteristic number of…

Given a real curve, we study special linear systems called "very special" for which the dimension does not satisfy a Clifford type inequality. We classify all these very special linear systems when the gonality of the curve is small.

We show that finite fields over which there is a curve of a given genus g with its Jacobian having a small exponent, are very rare. This extends a recent result of W. Duke in the case g=1. We also show when g=1 or g=2 that our bounds are…

A singular curve over a non-perfect field K may not have a smooth model over K. Those are said to "change genus". If K is a global field of positive characteristic and C/K a curve that change genus, then C(K) is known to be finite. The…
