ConicCurv is a new derivative-free algorithm to estimate the curvature of a plane curve from a sample of data points. It is based on a known tangent estimator method grounded on classic results of Projective Geometry and B\'ezier rational…

A novel method for computing torus amplitudes in orbifold compactifications is suggested. It applies universally for every Abelian $\mathbb{Z}_{N}$ orbifold without requiring the unfolding technique. This method follows from the possibility…

We study the proportion of metric matroids whose Jacobians have nontrivial $p$-torsion. We establish a correspondence between these Jacobians and the $\mathbb{F}_p$-rational points on configuration hypersurfaces, thereby relating their…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$, and let $\mathbb{Q}^{ab}$ be the maximal abelian extension of $\mathbb{Q}$. In this article we classify the groups that can arise as $E(\mathbb{Q}^{ab})_{\text{tors}}$ up to…

We show how the size of the Galois groups of iterates of a quadratic polynomial $f(x)$ can be parametrized by certain rational points on the curves $C_n:y^2=f^n(x)$ and their quadratic twists. To that end, we study the arithmetic of such…

Let $D$ be an odd square-free positive integer and $C$ a divisor of $D$. For any quadratic character $\chi$ modulo $C$, we prove that the $\chi$-part of the group $J_0(DC)_\text{tor}$ of torsion points of $J_0(DC)$ coincides with the…

Let $A$ be an elliptic curve over $\Q$ of square free conductor $N$. We prove that if $A$ has a rational torsion point of prime order $r$ such that $r$ does not divide $6N$, then $r$ divides the order of the cuspidal subgroup of $J_0(N)$.

We study the multi-height distribution of rational points of smooth, projective and split toric varieties over $\mathbf{Q}$ using the lift of the number of points to universal torsors.

Let $C$ be a curve of genus $g$ over a field $k$. We describe probabilistic algorithms for addition and inversion of the classes of rational divisors in the Jacobian of $C$. After a precomputation, which is done only once for the curve $C$,…

Let $K$ be a number field, and let $E/K$ be an elliptic curve over $K$. The Mordell--Weil theorem asserts that the $K$-rational points $E(K)$ of $E$ form a finitely generated abelian group. In this work, we complete the classification of…

We prove explicit upper and lower bounds for the torsional rigidity of extrinsic domains of submanifolds P^m with controlled radial mean curvature in ambient Riemannian manifolds N^n with a pole p and with sectional curvatures bounded from…

Let $G$ be a finitely generated solvable-by-finite linear group. We present an algorithm to compute the torsion-free rank of $G$ and a bound on the Pr\"{u}fer rank of $G$. This yields in turn an algorithm to decide whether a finitely…

Consider a one-parameter family of smooth, irreducible, projective curves of genus $g\ge 2$ defined over a number field. Each fiber contains at most finitely many rational points by the Mordell Conjecture, a theorem of Faltings. We show…

The list of all groups that can appear as torsion subgroups of elliptic curves over number fields of degree $d$, $d=4,5,6$, is not completely determined. However, the list of groups $\Phi^{\infty}(d)$, $d=4,5,6$, that can be realized as…

In this paper, we do the two things. 1. We present a formula to compute the rational cohomology ring of a real topological toric manifold, and thus that of a small cover or a real toric manifold, which implies the formula of Suciu and…

We describe a simple, but effective, method for deriving families of elliptic curves, with high rank, all of whose members have the same torsion subgroup structure.

We describe an algorithm that computes possible corners of hypothetical counterexamples to the Jacobian Conjecture up to a given bound. Using this algorithm we compute the possible families corresponding to $\gcd(deg(P),deg(Q))\le 35$, and…

We consider the problem of efficient computation in the Jacobian of a hyperelliptic curve of genus 3 defined over a field whose characteristic is not 2. For curves with a rational Weierstrass point, fast explicit formulas are well known and…

It is a classical result that there are $12$ (irreducible) rational cubic curves through $8$ generic points in $\mathbb{P}_{\mathbb{C}}^2$, but little is known about the non-generic cases. The space of $8$-point configurations is…

We address the problem of computing in the group of $\ell^k$-torsion rational points of the jacobian variety of algebraic curves over finite fields, with a view toward computing modular representations.
