Consider a hyperelliptic curve of genus $2$ over a field $K$ of characteristic zero. After extending $K$ we can view it as a marked curve with its $6$ Weierstrass points. We classify the structure of the potentially stable reduction of such…
A numerical semigroup is said to be Weierstrass if it is the semigroup of pole orders of rational functions that are regular at all but one point of some compact Riemann surface or smooth algebraic curve. Hurwitz asked in 1892 whether all…
We prove that the constellation of Weierstrass points characterizes the isomorphism-class of double covering of curves of genus large enough.
Starting from the classical division polynomials we construct homogeneous polynomials $\alpha_n$, $\beta_n$, $\gamma_n$ such that for $P = (x:y:z)$ on an elliptic curve in Weierstrass form over an arbitrary ring we have $nP =…
We describe an algorithm for determining a minimal Weierstrass equation for hyperelliptic curves over principal ideal domains. When the curve has a rational Weierstrass point $w_0$, we also give a similar algorithm for determining the…
In this work, we are concerned with the structure of sparse semigroups and some applications of them to Weierstrass points. We manage to describe, classify and find an upper bound for the genus of sparse semigroups. We also study the…
In this article we use techniques from coding theory to derive upper bounds for the number of rational places of the function field of an algebraic curve defined over a finite field. The used techniques yield upper bounds if the…
We define a class of numerical semigroups S, which we call Castelnuovo semigroups, and study the subvariety $M^S_{g,1}$ of $M_{g,1}$ consisting of marked smooth curves with Weierstrass semigroup S. We determine the number of irreducible…
In this paper, we prove that all irregular cusps on $X_1(N)$ of genus $\geq2$ are Weierstrass points except for $X_1(18)$. Also, for any positive integer $N$ of the form $p^2M$ with a prime $p$ and a positive integer $M$, we obtain some…
A linearized function field $F$ can be viewed as a Galois extension of a rational function field $K(x)$. For a totally ramified place $Q$ of degree one in $F/K(x)$, we give a unified description of the set $G(Q)$ of gaps at $Q$. As a…
In this paper we demonstrate that the notion of inflection points and extactic points on plane algebraic curves can be suitably transferred to curves in $\mathbb{P}^1\times \mathbb{P}^1$. More precisely, we describe osculating curves and…
We compute the Weierstrass semigroup at one totally ramified place for Kummer extensions defined by $y^m=f(x)^{\lambda}$ where $f(x)$ is a separable polynomial over $\mathbb{F}_q$. In addition, we compute the Weierstrass semigroup at two…
Minimal surfaces of general type in Euclidean 4-space are characterized with the conditions that the ellipse of curvature at any point is centered at this point and has two different principal axes. Any minimal surface of general type…
We prove equidistribution of Weierstrass points on Berkovich curves. Let $X$ be a smooth proper curve of positive genus over a complete algebraically closed non-Archimedean field $K$ of equal characteristic zero with a non-trivial…
Given a family $f:\mathcal X \to S$ of canonically polarized manifolds, the unique K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on the fibers induce a hermitian metric on the relative canonical bundle $\mathcal K_{\mathcal X/S}$. We use a global elliptic…

Given a lattice $\Lambda \subset \mathbb C\simeq \mathbb R^2$ with associated Weierstrass function $\wp_{\Lambda}$, we determine the algebraic curves in $\mathbb R^2$ whose image via $\wp_{\Lambda}$ is contained in an algebraic curve.
In this work is we prove model completeness for the expansion of the real field by the Weierstrass $\wp$ function as a function of the variable $z$ and the parameter (or period) $\tau$. We need to existentially define the partial…
Given a divisor on a tropical curve, we associate to each point of the curve a Weierstrass gap sequence. We investigate structural properties of these gap sequences and explore their relationship with the Weierstrass gap sequences of line…
In the 80's D. Eisenbud and J. Harris posed the following question: "What are the limits of Weierstrass points in families of curves degenerating to stable curves not of compact type?" We answer their question for one-dimensional families…
