The genus of projective curves discretely separates decidedly different two variable algebraic relations. So, we can focus on the connected moduli M_g of genus g curves. Yet, modern applications require a data variable (function) on such…
The number A(q) is the upper limit of the ratio of the maximum number of points of a curve defined over $\Fq$ to the genus. By constructing class field towers with good parameters we present improvements of lower bounds of A(q) for q an odd…
In their solution to the orchard-planting problem, Green and Tao established a structure theorem which proves that in a line arrangement in the real projective plane with few double points, most lines are tangent to the dual curve of a…
We give a new presentation of the Drinfeld double of the elliptic Hall algebra introduced in a previous work with I. Burban. This presentation is similar in spirit to Drinfeld's `new realization' of quantum affine algebras. This answers, in…
We give asymptotics for the number of Drinfeld $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$-modules over $\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ of a given height, which satisfy prescribed sets of local conditions. This is done by relating our problem to a problem about counting points on…
Starting from works by Scherk (1835) and by Enneper-Weierstra\ss \ (1863), new minimal surfaces with Scherk ends were found only in 1988 by Karcher (see \cite{Karcher1,Karcher}). In the singly periodic case, Karcher's examples of positive…
In this paper we provide a short proof of the Riemann Hypothesis for Drinfeld modules which uses only basic notions from the theory of global function fields and of Drinfeld modules.
We prove a genus formula for modular curves of $D$-elliptic sheaves. We use this formula to show that the reductions of modular curves of $D$-elliptic sheaves attain the Drinfeld-Vladut bound as the degree of the discriminant of $D$ tends…
Following the work of Mestre, we use Weil's explicit formulas to compute explicit lower bounds on the conductors of elliptic curves and abelian varieties over number fields. Moreover, we obtain bounds for the conductor of elliptic curves…
We introduce the tautological rings of moduli stacks of twisted curves and establish some basic properties.
We construct minimal smooth models of coarse moduli schemes of rational Drinfeld modules of rank 4 as well as their smooth compactifications.
It is often stated that the Carlitz module is to the ring of univariate polynomials over a finite field what the multiplicative group is to the ring of integers. This analogy extends to the "rank 2" case, where Drinfeld modules play a role…
This text is a presentation of a set of formulae, first found by Vainsencher (for $\delta \leq 6$) and shortly after improved by Kleiman and Piene, counting $\delta$-nodal curves in a complete linear system on a smooth surface, if $\delta…
We reduce the problem of constructing asymptotically good tree codes to the construction of triangular totally nonsingular matrices over fields with polynomially many elements. We show a connection of this problem to Birkhoff interpolation…
In this paper, we obtain two analogues of the Sturm bound for modular forms in the function field setting. In the case of mixed characteristic, we prove that any harmonic cochain is uniquely determined by an explicit finite number of its…
We observe that there are elliptic curves over number fields all of whose quadratic twists must have positive rank, assuming the Birch-Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture. We give a classification of such curves in terms of their local behaviour,…
Elliptic curves over finite fields with predefined conditions in the order are practically constructed using the theory of complex multiplication. The stage with longest calculations in this method reconstructs some polynomial with integer…
We construct a good compactification of the variety of irreducible projective plane curves of degree n with d nodes and no other singularities.
We construct highly singular projective curves and surfaces defined by invariants of primitive complex reflection groups.
An efficient algorithm for computing the branching structure of a compact Riemann surface defined via an algebraic curve is presented. Generators of the fundamental group of the base of the ramified covering punctured at the discriminant…
