We construct and study two series of curves whose Jacobians admit complex multiplication. The curves arise as quotients of Galois coverings of the projective line with Galois group metacyclic groups $G_{q,3}$ of order $3q$ with $q \equiv 1…

In this notes we study complex projective plane curves whose graded module of Jacobian syzygies is generated by its minimal degree component. Examples of such curves include the smooth curves as well as the maximal Tjurina curves. However,…

Consider a subgroup of finite index of modular group. We give an analytic criterion for a cuspidal divisor to be torsion in the Jacobian of the corresponding modular curve. By BelyI theorem, such a criterion would apply to any curve over a…

We introduce deformation theoretic methods for determining when a curve $X$ in a non-hyperelliptic jacobian $JC$ will deform with $JC$ to a non-jacobian. We apply these methods to a particular class of curves in the second symmetric power…

Let $k$ be a number field. We investigate the Mordell-Weil ranks of Jacobian varieties $J_C$ associated with algebraic curves $C$ of genus $g \geq 1$ defined by affine equations of the form $y^s=x(ax^r+b)$, where $a, b \in k$ ($ab \neq 0$),…

We prove that the quotient of Jacobian of a curve whose genus is greater than or equal to 5 under the action of a finite group acting on the curve is never uniruled, and classify all curves of genus 3 and 4 whose quotients of Jacobian is…

We prove a p-adic analogue of W\"ustholz's analytic subgroup theorem. We apply this result to show that a curve embedded in its Jacobian intersects the p-adic closure of the Mordell-Weil group transversely whenever the latter has rank equal…

We study the Chow group of $0$-cycles on the product of elliptic curves over a $p$-adic field. For this abelian variety, it is decided that the structure of the image of the Albanese kernel by the cycle class map.

To any nodal curve $C$ is associated the degree class group, a combinatorial invariant which plays an important role in the compactification of the generalised Jacobian of $C$ and in the construction of the N\'eron model of the Picard…

We start with $n$-torsions in the Jacobian of an $m$-gonal curve and produce $n$-torsions in the class group of certain number field $K$.

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…

This paper is devoted to constructing an explicit efficient representation for the Jacobian variety of a nonsingular curve of genus greater than 1, and its group law. We describe an algorithm for executing the group law on the Jacobian…

We investigate the Jacobian decomposition of some algebraic curves over finite fields with genus $4$, $5$ and $10$. As a corollary, explicit equations for curves that are either maximal or minimal over the finite field with $p^2$ elements…

We give a geometric interpretation of the group law for Jacobian varieties by extending the geometric construction of chords and tangents on an elliptic curve. For any given algebraic curve $\mathcal X$ and reduced divisors $D_1, D_2 \in…

In this paper, we show that there exist families of curves (defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p >2$) whose Jacobians have interesting $p$-torsion. For example, for every $0 \leq f \leq g$, we find the…

The degree of a curve $C$ in a polarized abelian variety $(X,\lambda)$ is the integer $d=C\cdot\lambda$. When $C$ generates $X$, we find a lower bound on $d$ which depends on $n$ and the degree of the polarization $\lambda$. The smallest…

We study the Abel-Jacobi image of the Ceresa cycle W_k-W_k^-, where W_k is the image of the k-th symmetric product of a curve X on its Jacobian variety. For the Fermat curve of degree N, we express it in terms of special values of…

We use a combinatorial result relating the discriminant of the cycle pairing on a weighted finite graph to the eigenvalues of its Laplacian to deduce a formula for the orders of component groups of Jacobians of modular curves arising from…

We study the Chow group of 1-cycles of the moduli space of semistable parabolic vector bundles of fixed rank, determinant and a generic weight over a nonsingular projective curve over $\mathbb{C}$ of genus at least 3. We show that, the Chow…

In this work, we present an efficient method for computing in the Generalized Jacobian of special singular curves. The efficiency of the operation is due to representation of an element in the Jacobian group by a single polynomial.
