We discuss the structure of the endomorphism algebras of the jacobians of superelliptic curves y^q=f(x) where q is a prime power and f(x) is an irreducible cubic or quartic polynomial over the field of rational functions k(t) in…

Let $\cac$ be a smooth projective curve defined over a number field $k$, $A/k(\cac)$ an abelian variety and $(\tau,B)$ the $k(\cac)/k$-trace of $A$. We estimate how the rank of $A(k(\cac))/\tau B(k)$ varies when we take a finite cover…

Topological properties of the jacobian curve ${\mathcal J}_{\mathcal{F},\mathcal{G}}$ of two foliations $\mathcal{F}$ and $\mathcal{G}$ are described in terms of invariants associated to the foliations. The main result gives a decomposition…

We study the $2$-Selmer ranks of elliptic curves. We prove that for an arbitrary elliptic curve $E$ over an arbitrary number field $K$, if the set $A_E$ of 2-Selmer ranks of quadratic twists of $E$ contains an integer $c$, it contains all…

In this paper we give examples of smooth projective curves whose Jacobians are isogenus to a product of an arbitrarily high number of Jacobians

For a given Jacobi-Jordan algebra $A$ and a vector space $V$ over a field $k$, a non-abelian cohomological type object ${\mathcal H}^{2}_{A} \, (V, \, A)$ is constructed: it classifies all Jacobi-Jordan algebras containing $A$ as a…

In general, algorithms for computing the Selmer group of the Jacobian of a curve have relied on either homogeneous spaces or functions on the curve. We present a theoretical analysis of algorithms which use functions on the curve, and show…

Let K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and let f(x,y) be a nonzero polynomial of K[x,y]. We prove that if the generic element of the family $(f-\lambda)\_{\lambda}$ is a rational polynomial, and if the Jacobian J(f,g)…

We consider the question: which elliptic curves appear as the Jacobian of a smooth curve of genus one splitting a Severi--Brauer variety? We provide three new examples. First, we show that if $E$ is any elliptic curve over an algebraically…

We develop an explicit theory of Kummer varieties associated to Jacobians of hyperelliptic curves of genus 3, over any field $k$ of characteristic $\neq 2$. In particular, we provide explicit equations defining the Kummer variety $\mathcal…

We show that the Weierstrass points of the generic curve of genus $g$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 generate a group of maximal rank in the Jacobian.

We extend the formulae of classical invariant theory for the Jacobian of a genus one curve of degree $n \le 4$ to curves of arbitrary degree. To do this, we associate to each genus one normal curve of degree $n$, an $n \times n$ alternating…

Let $G$ be a finite undirected multigraph with no self-loops. The Jacobian $\operatorname{Jac}(G)$ is a finite abelian group associated with $G$ whose cardinality is equal to the number of spanning trees of $G$. There are only a finite…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety over a number field. The connected monodromy field of $A$ is the minimal field over which the images of all the $\ell$-adic torsion representations have connected Zariski closure. We show that for all even $g…

For a curve C, viewed as a cycle in its Jacobian, we study its image n_*C under multiplication by n on JC. We prove that the subgroup generated by these cycles, in the Chow group modulo algebraic equivalence, has rank at most d-1, where d…

A map $f$ from the quaternion skew field $H$ to itself, can also be thought as a transformation $f:R^4 \to R^4$. In this manuscript, the Jacobian $J(f)$ of $f$ is computed, in the case where $f$ is a quaternion polynomial. As a consequence,…

L. Moret-Bailly constructed families $\mathfrak{C}\rightarrow \mathbb{P}^1$ of genus 2 curves with supersingular jacobian. In this paper we first classify the reducible fibers of a Moret-Bailly family using linear algebra over a quaternion…

We investigate the rank gain of elliptic curves, and more generally, Jacobian varieties, over non-Galois extensions whose Galois closure has Galois group permutation-isomorphic to a prescribed group $G$ (in short, "$G$-extensions"). In…

The famous Jacobian problem asks: Is a morphism $f:\mathbb{C}[x,y]\to \mathbb{C}[x,y]$ having an invertible Jacobian, invertible? If we add the assumption that $\mathbb{C}(f(x),f(y))=\mathbb{C}(x,y)$, then $f$ is invertible; this result is…

We describe an algorithm, based on the properties of the characteristic polynomials of Frobenius, to compute $\operatorname{End}_{\overline{K}}(A)$ when $A$ is the Jacobian of a nice genus-2 curve over a number field $K$. We use this…
