We compute the class of arithmetic genus two Teichmueller curves in the Picard group of pseudo-Hilbert modular surfaces, distinguished according to their torsion order and spin invariant. As an application, we compute the number of genus…

We establish the existence of hyperelliptic curves of genus $g\ge 2$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ whose Jacobians possess rational torsion points of order $N$ where $N=4g^2+2g-2$ or $4g^2+ 2g -4$. For $N=2g^2+7g+1$, we introduce a…

This note for the Proceedings of the International Congress of Mathematical Physics gives an account of a construction of an ``elliptic quantum group'' associated with each simple classical Lie algebra. It is closely related to elliptic…

We construct two pencils of bielliptic curves of genus three and genus five. The first pencil is associated with a general abelian surface with a polarization of type $(1,2)$. The second pencil is related to the first by an unramified…

We consider the identity component of the Sato-Tate group of the Jacobian of curves of the form $$C_1\colon y^2=x^{2g+2}+c, C_2\colon y^2=x^{2g+1}+cx, C_3\colon y^2=x^{2g+1} +c,$$ where $g$ is the genus of the curve and $c\in\mathbb Q^*$ is…

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…

The aim of this paper is to study certain family of elliptic curves $\{\mathscr{X}_H\}_H$ defined over a number field $F$ arising from hyperplane sections of some cubic surface $\mathscr{X}/F$ associated to a cyclic cubic extension $K/F$.…

We consider the loci of curves of genus 2 and 3 admitting a $d$-to-1 map to a genus 1 curve. After compactifying these loci via admissible covers, we obtain formulas for their Chow classes, recovering results of Faber-Pagani and van Zelm…

We prove the Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence between the Gromov-Witten theory of each elliptic orbifold curve and its Fan-Jarvis-Ruan-Witten theory counterpart via modularity. We show that the correlation functions in these two…

We prove a generic Torelli theorem for Jacobian elliptic surfaces, provided that the geometric genus is large compared to the irregularity. The result is effective to the extent that defining equations for the base curve are recovered from…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a smooth, projective, genus $g\geq 2$ curve, defined over $\mathbb{C}$. Then $\mathcal{C}$ has \emph{many automorphisms} if its corresponding moduli point $p \in \mathcal{M}_g$ has a neighborhood $U$ in the complex…

We prove that the geometric genus p of a curve in a very generic Jacobian of dimension g>3 satisfies either p=g or p>2g-3. This gives a positive answer to a conjecture of Naranjo and Pirola. For low values of g the second inequality can be…

We analyze the characteristic series, the $KO$ series and the series associated with the Witten genus, and their analytic forms as the $q$-analogs of classical special functions (in particular $q$-analog of the beta integral and the gamma…

We consider the question of when a Jacobian of a curve of genus $2g$ admits a $(2,2)$-isogeny to two polarized dimension $g$ abelian varieties. We find that one of them must be a Jacobian itself and, if the associated curve is…

We present a new class of elliptic-like strings on two-dimensional manifolds of constant curvature. Our solutions are related to a class of identities between Jacobi theta functions and to the geometry of the lightcone in one (spacelike)…

We develop the theory of Abelian functions associated with cyclic trigonal curves by considering two new cases. We investigate curves of genus six and seven and consider whether it is the trigonal nature or the genus which dictates certain…

We introduce and study the notion of contact dual pair adopting a line bundle approach to contact and Jacobi geometry. A contact dual pair is a pair of Jacobi morphisms defined on the same contact manifold and satisfying a certain…

In this work we consider constructions of genus three curves $X$ such that $\mathrm{End}(\mathrm{Jac} (X))\otimes Q$ contains the totally real cubic number field $Q(\zeta _7 +\bar{\zeta}_7 )$. We construct explicit three-dimensional…

We introduce a periodic form of the iterated algebraic K-theory of ku, the (connective) complex K-theory spectrum, as well as a natural twisting of this cohomology theory by higher gerbes. Furthermore, we prove a form of topological…

We prove and conjecture results which show that Castelnuovo theory in projective space has a close analogue for abelian varieties. This is related to the geometric Schottky problem: our main result is that a principally polarized abelian…
