Motivated by the classical Euler elastic curves, David A. Singer posed in 1999 the problem of determining a plane curve whose curvature is given in terms of its position. We propound the same question in Lorentz-Minkowski plane, focusing on…

For a given hyperelliptic curve $C$ over a finite field with Jacobian $J_C$, we consider the hyperelliptic analogue of the congruential generator defined by $W_n=W_{n-1}+D$ for $n\geq 1$ and $D,W_0\in J_C$. We show that curves of genus 2…
