In his 2011 paper, Teleman proved that a cohomological field theory on the moduli space $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n}$ of stable complex curves is uniquely determined by its restriction to the smooth part $\mathcal{M}_{g,n}$, provided that…

In previous work we determined automorphism groups of cyclic algebraic curves defined over fields of any odd characteristic. In this paper we determine parametric equations of families of curves for each automorphism group for such curves.

We show the existence of an anti-pluricanonical curve on every smooth projective rational surface X which has an infinite group G of automorphisms of either null entropy or of type Z . Z (semi-direct product), provided that the pair (X, G)…

Let $\mathcal{X}$ be an irreducible algebraic curve defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of characteristic $p>2$. Assume that the $\mathbb{F}_q$-automorphism group of $\mathcal{X}$ admits as an automorphism group the direct product of…

Let $S_g$ denote the closed orientable surface of genus $g$. We construct exponentially many mapping class group orbits of collections of $2g+1$ simple closed curves on $S_g$ which pairwise intersect exactly once, extending a result of the…

Let $G$ be a simple and simply connected complex Lie group, ${\goth{g}}$ its Lie algebra. I remove the restriction ``$G$ is of classical type or $G_2$'' made on $G$ in the papers of Beauville, Laszlo and myself [L-S] and [B-L-S] on the…

In this paper we study the Coleman-Oort conjecture for superelliptic curves, i.e., curves defined by affine equations $y^n=F(x)$ with $F$ a separable polynomial. We prove that up to isomorphism there are at most finitely many superelliptic…

We develop a new method for establishing the extremality in the closed cone of effective curves on the moduli space of curves and determine the extremality of many boundary $1$-strata. As a consequence, by using a general criterion for…

The eigencurve is a powerful tool introduced by Coleman and Mazur to study $p$-adic families of overconvergent modular forms. In this article, we introduce an analogous set of tools for understanding families of "overconvergent" $p$-adic…

We compare strongly recursive tropical linear series as defined by Farkas, Jensen, and Payne with combinatorial limit linear series as defined by Amini and Gierczak. We show that strongly recursive tropical linear series of rank $r$ are…

We construct families of curves which provide counterexamples for a uniform boundedness question. These families generalize those studied previously by several authors. We show, in detail, what fails in the argument of Caporaso, Harris,…

We prove irreducibility for the space of cyclic covers of fixed numerical type between smooth projective curves, and also for the space of cyclic covers of prime order and of fixed numerical-combinatorial type between moduli-stable…

It is proved that the rank of an elliptic curve is one less the arithmetic complexity of the corresponding non-commutative torus. As an illustration, we consider a family of elliptic curves with complex multiplication.

We classify curves in the moduli space of curves that are both Shimura- and Teichmueller curves: Except for the moduli space of genus one curves there is only a single such curve. We start with a Hodge-theoretic description of Shimura…

Superisolated surface singularities in $(\mathbb{C}^3,0)$ were introduced by I. Luengo to prove that the $\mu$-constant stratum may be singular. The main feature of this family is that it can bring information from the projective plane…

We present three families of pairs of geometrically non-isomorphic curves whose Jacobians are isomorphic to one another as unpolarized abelian varieties. Each family is parametrized by an open subset of P^1. The first family consists of…

We prove that any connected reductive group of semisimple $F$-rank 1 over a $p$-adic field admits an irreducible admissible supersingular mod-$p$ representation. This establishes one of the missing cases in Vign\'eras' existence proof for…

Let $p>2$ be a prime number. Let $G:=GL_2(Q_p)$ and $\pi$, $\tau$ smooth irreducible representations of $G$ on $\bar{F}_p$-vector spaces with a central character. We show if $\pi$ is supersingular then $Ext^1_G(\tau,\pi)\neq 0$ implies…

Given a smooth curve defined over a field $k$ that admits a non-singular plane model over $\overline{k}$, a fixed separable closure of $k$, it does not necessarily have a non-singular plane model defined over the field $k$. We determine…

In algebraic geometry, enumerating or finding superspecial curves in positive characteristic $p$ is important both in theory and in computation. In this paper, we propose feasible algorithms to enumerate or find superspecial hyperelliptic…
