We study hyperelliptic curves y^2=f(x) over local fields of odd residue characteristic. We introduce the notion of a "cluster picture" associated to the curve, that describes the p-adic distances between the roots of f(x), and show that…

The aim of this work is to provide a construction of generalized local symbols on algebraic curves as morphisms of group schemes. From a closed point of a complete, irreducible and non-singular curve $C$ over a perfect field $k$ as the only…

We construct a semi-stable formal model of a wide open rigid curve with a semi-stable covering, and study the l-adic cohomology of the rigid curve. We describe the l-adic cohomology of the rigid curve using the l-adic cohomology of the…

Three results in p-convex geometry are established. First is the analogue of the Levi problem in several complex variables, namely: local p-convexity implies global p-convexity. The second asserts that the support of a minimal p-dimensional…

We deal with a notion of weak binormal and weak principal normal for non-smooth curves of the Euclidean space with finite total curvature and total absolute torsion. By means of piecewise linear methods, we first introduce the analogous…

A criterion for the existence of a birational embedding into a projective plane with non-collinear Galois points for algebraic curves is presented. A new example of a plane curve with non-collinear Galois points as an application is…

We determine the stable reduction at $p$ of all three point covers of the projective line with Galois group ${\rm SL}_2(p)$. As a special case, we recover the results of Deligne and Rapoport on the reduction of the modular curves $X_0(p)$…

Mumford defines a certain type of Shimura curves of Hodge type, parameterizing polarized complex abelian fourfolds. In this paper, we study the good reduction of such a curve in positive characteristic and give a characterization in the…

We consider the problem of classifying quadruples $(K,E,m_1,m_2)$ where $K$ is a number field, $E$ is an elliptic curve defined over $K$ and $(m_1,m_2)$ is a pair of relatively prime positive integers for which the intersection $K(E[m_1])…

Fix a positive integer $g$ and rational prime $p$. We prove the existence of a genus $g$ curve $C/\mathbb{Q}$ such that the mod $p$ representation of its Jacobian is tame by imposing conditions on the endomorphism ring. As an application,…

We introduce a new formalism and a number of new results in the context of geometric computational vision. The classical scope of the research in geometric computer vision is essentially limited to static configurations of points and lines…

We study Lagrangian points on smooth holomorphic curves in T${\mathbb P}^1$ equipped with a natural neutral K\"ahler structure, and prove that they must form real curves. By virtue of the identification of T${\mathbb P}^1$ with the space…

In this article, we study deformations of conjugate self-dual Galois representations. The study has two folds. First, we prove an R=T type theorem for a conjugate self-dual Galois representation with coefficients in a finite field,…

In this note we consider certain elliptic curves defined over real quadratic fields isogenous to their Galois conjugate. We give a construction of algebraic points on these curves defined over almost totally real number fields. The main…

In this paper we study the reduction of Galois covers of curves, from characteristic 0 to characteristic p. The starting point is a is a recent result of Raynaud which gives a criterion for good reduction for covers of the projective line…

If P is an algebraic point on a commutative group scheme A/K, then P is _almost_rational_ if no two non-trivial Galois conjugates sigma(P), tau(P), have sum equal to 2P. In this paper, we classify almost rational torsion points on…

We investigate the behaviour of the reduction type and related invariants of curves in families of curves over a discretely valued field. By a family, we will mean a set of curves obtained by perturbing the coefficients of the defining…

The `linear orbit' of a plane curve of degree d is its orbit in P^{d(d+3)/2} under the natural action of PGL(3). We classify curves with positive dimensional stabilizer, and we compute the degree of the closure of the linear orbits of…

Using the rank of the Mordell-Weil group $E(\mathbb{Q})$ of an elliptic curve $E$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, we give a lower bound of the class number of the number field $\mathbb{Q}(E[p^n])$ generated by $p^n$-division points of $E$ when the curve…

Shape inference is classically ill-posed, because it involves a map from the (2D) image domain to the (3D) world. Standard approaches regularize this problem by either assuming a prior on lighting and rendering or restricting the domain,…
