In this note, we prove that for every ordinary genus-2 curve $X$ over a finite field $\kappa$ of characteristic 2 with $\text{Aut}(X/\kappa)=\db{Z}/2\db{Z} \times S_3$, there exist $\text{SL}(2,\kappa\sembrack{s})$-representations of…
The number $N_9(5)$, the maximal number of $\mathbb{F}_9$-rational points on curves over $\mathbb{F}_9$ of genus $5$ is unknown, but it is known that $32 \le N_9(5)\le 35$. In this paper, we enumerate hyperelliptic curves and trigonal…
We introduce the notion of generalised Gorenstein spin structure on a curve and we give an explicit description of the associated section ring for curves of genus two with ample canonical bundle, obtaining five different formats.
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic 0, let $C/k$ be a uniquely trigonal genus 4 curve, and let $P \in C(k)$ be a simply ramified point of the uniquely trigonal morphism. We construct an assignment of an orbit of an algebraic group of type…
We study the family of algebraic curves of genus $\geq 1$ defined by the affine equations $y^s=ax^r+b$ over a number field $k$, where $r \geq 2$ and $s\geq 2$ are fixed integers. Assuming the strong version of Lang's conjecture on varieties…
We determine in this paper the distribution of the number of points on the cyclic covers of $\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{F}_q)$ with affine models $C: Y^r = F(X)$, where $F(X) \in \mathbb{F}_q[X]$ and $r^{th}$-power free when $q$ is fixed and the…
We consider a map $F$ of class $C^r$ with a fixed point of parabolic type whose differential is not diagonalizable and we study the existence and regularity of the invariant manifolds associated with the fixed point using the…
One of the general problems in algebraic geometry is to determine algorithmically whether or not a given geometric object, defined by explicit polynomial equations (e.g. a curve or a surface), satisfies a given property (e.g. has…
We study the distribution of algebraic points on curves in abelian varieties over finite fields.
We construct three families of pairs of genus 2 curves over a field K, whose Jacobians are isomorphic as unpolarized abelian varieties. Each family is parameterized by an open subset of the Projective line over K. Our construction is based…
In this survey, we discuss the problem of the maximum number of points of curves of genus 1,2 and 3 over finite fields
We generalize a classical result about the genus of curves in projective space by Gruson and Peskine to principally polarized abelian threefolds of Picard rank one. The proof is based on wall-crossing techniques for ideal sheaves of curves…
This note presents explicit equations (up to birational equivalence over $\mathbb{F}_2$) for a complete, smooth, absolutely irreducible curve $X$ over $\mathbb{F}_2$ of genus $50$ satisfying $#X(\mathbb{F}_2)=40$. In his 1985 Harvard…
We give a criterion when a planar tree-like curve, i.e. a generic immersed plane curve each double point of which cuts it into two disjoint parts, can be send by a diffeomorphism of the plane onto a curve with no inflection points. We also…
Let G = Z2 act on a finitistic space X having mod 2 cohomology of the product of three spheres S^n x S^m x S^l. In this paper, we have determined the fixed point sets of involutions on X. This generalizes J. C. Su [12] results for…
We investigate the (small) quantum cohomology ring of the moduli spaces of stable n-pointed curves of genus 0. In particular, we determine an explicit presentation in the case n=5 and we outline a computational approach to the case n=6.
As proved recently in [PT], for varieties $X^{r+1}\subset \mathbb P^N$ such that through $n\geq 2$ general points there passes an irreducible curve $C$ of degree $\delta\geq n-1$ we have $N\leq \pi(r,n,\delta+r(n-1)+2)$, where $\pi(r,n,d)$…
In this paper we construct an explicit geometric model for the group of gerbes over an orbifold $X$. We show how from its curvature we can obtain its characteristic class in $H^3(X)$ via Chern-Weil theory. For an arbitrary gerbe $\LL$, a…
In this note, we study the fluctuations in the number of points of smooth projective plane curves over finite fields $\mathbb{F}_q$ as $q$ is fixed and the genus varies. More precisely, we show that these fluctuations are predicted by a…
This paper deals with singularities of genus 2 curves on a general (d_1,d_2)-polarized abelian surface (S,L). In analogy with Chen's results concerning rational curves on K3 surfaces [Ch1,Ch2], it is natural to ask whether all such curves…
