To every double cover ramified in two points of a general trigonal curve of genus g, one can associate an \'etale double cover of a tetragonal curve of genus g+1. We show that the corresponding Prym varieties are canonically isomorphic as…

In this paper we study the arithmetic and invariant theory of genus one normal curves embedded in $\mathbb{P}^{n-1}$. We generalize the notion of genus one model of degree $n$, introduced by Cremona, Fisher and Stoll for $n \leq 5$, to…

S. Bigelow proved that the braid groups are linear. That is, there is a faithful representation of the braid group into the general linear group of some field. Using this, we deduce from previously known results that the mapping class group…

The computation of the dimension of linear systems of plane curves through a bunch of given multiple points is one of the most classic issues in Algebraic Geometry. In general, it is still an open problem to understand when the points fail…

This study defines finite-type invariants for curves on surfaces and reveals the construction of these finite-type invariants for stable homeomorphism classes of curves on compact oriented surfaces without boundaries. These invariants are a…

We explore parameterizations by radicals of low genera algebraic curves. We prove that for $q$ a prime power that is large enough and prime to $6$, a fixed positive proportion of all genus 2 curves over the field with $q$ elements can be…

We prove that the number of curves of a fixed genus g over finite fields is a polynomial function of the size of the field if and only if g is at most 8. Furthermore, we determine for each positive genus g the smallest n such that the…

We give two examples of plane curve arrangements of pencil type which are very close to line arrangements, though the action of the monodromy operator on the first cohomology group of the Milnor Fiber has eigenvalues of order 5 and 6,…

In this paper we consider the question of determining the geometric genera of irreducible curves lying on a very general surface $S$ of degree $d$ at least 5 in $\mathbb{P}^3$ (the cases $d \leqslant 4$ are well known). We introduce the set…

In this paper, two-to-one mappings and involutions without any fixed point on finite fields of even characteristic are investigated. First, we characterize a closed relationship between them by implicit functions and develop an AGW-like…

In the present paper, we study a new kind of anabelian phenomenon concerning the smooth pointed stable curves in positive characteristic. It shows that the topological structures of moduli spaces of curves can be understood from the…

Let G be a finite group, and $g \geq 2$. We study the locus of genus g curves that admit a G-action of given type, and inclusions between such loci. We use this to study the locus of genus g curves with prescribed automorphism group G. We…

We completely describe good involutions of free quandles and subquandles of twisted conjugation quandles of groups, including all Alexander quandles. As an application, we enumerate good involutions of linear quandles, and we provide…

We consider the general problem of enumerating branched covers of the projective line from a fixed general curve subject to ramification conditions at possibly moving points. Our main computations are in genus 1; the theory of limit linear…

We give a sharp bound on the number of automorphisms of a stable curve of a given genus and describe all curves attaining this bound.

We prove that for any number field $K$ and any fixed genus $g \geq 2$, there are infinitely many non-isomorphic hyperelliptic curves of genus $g$ over $K$ whose Jacobians have rank over $K$ equal to each of 0, 1, or 2. As an example of our…

We study a subset of square free positive braids and we give a few algebraic characterizations of them and one geometric characterization: the set of positive braids whose closures are unlinks. We describe canonical forms of these braids…

Recently Bowden, Hensel and Webb defined the fine curve graph for surfaces, extending the notion of curve graphs for the study of homeomorphism or diffeomorphism groups of surfaces. Later Long, Margalit, Pham, Verberne and Yao proved that…

A Howe curve is defined as the normalization of the fiber product over a projective line of two hyperelliptic curves. Howe curves are very useful to produce important classes of curves over fields of positive characteristic, e.g., maximal,…

We exhibit a 2-dimensional family of non-hyperelliptic curves of genus 5, called Humbert curves, for which the tautological ring injects into cohomology. In particular, Humbert curves have a multiplicative Chow-K\"unneth decomposition (in…
