In general, Hurwitz numbers count branched covers of the Riemann sphere with prescribed ramification data, or equivalently, factorisations in the symmetric group with prescribed cycle structure data. In this paper, we initiate the study of…

We present an explicit basis for orders of arbitrary level N>1 in definite rational quaternion algebras. These orders have applications to computations of spaces of elliptic and quaternionic modular forms.

It is proved that for any prescribed orientation of the triples of either a Steiner triple system or a Latin square of odd order, there exists an embedding in an orientable surface with the triples forming triangular faces and one extra…

The paper develops the fundamentals of quaternionic holomorphic curve theory. The holomorphic functions in this theory are conformal maps from a Riemann surface into the 4-sphere, i.e., the quaternionic projective line. Basic results such…

In this paper, we aim to provide an accessible survey to various formulae for calculating single Hurwitz numbers. Single Hurwitz numbers count certain classes of meromorphic functions on complex algebraic curves and have a rich geometric…

We determine the explicit quantum ordering for a special class of quantum geodesic functions corresponding to geodesics joining exactly two orbifold points or holes on a non-compact Riemann surface. We discuss some special cases in which…

This paper proposes a totally constructive approach for the proof of Hilbert's theorem on ternary quartic forms. The main contribution is the ladder technique, with which the Hilbert's theorem is proved vividly.

In this paper, we study the topology of ordered Hurwitz space. These are moduli spaces of branched covers with a choice of ordering on the branched points. Answering a question of Ellenberg, we prove that the homology of ordered Hurwitz…

One can easily show that any meromorphic function on a complex closed Riemann surface can be represented as a composition of a birational map of this surface to CP^2 and a projection of the image curve from an appropriate point p in CP^2 to…

This is a survey on quaternion Hermitian Weyl (locally conformally quaternion K\"ahler) and hyperhermitian Weyl (locally conformally hyperk\"ahler) manifolds. These geometries appear by requesting the compatibility of some quaternion…

This paper establishes the basis of the quaternionic differential geometry ($\mathbbm H$DG) initiated in a previous article. The usual concepts of curves and surfaces are generalized to quaternionic constraints, as well as the curvature and…

The main result proved in the paper is the computation of the explicit equations defining the Hurwitz schemes of coverings with punctures as subschemes of the Sato infinite Grassmannian. As an application, we characterize the existence of…

In this paper, we introduce the generalized Fibonacci-Lucas quaternions and we prove that the set of these elements is an order,in the sense of ring theory, of a quaternion algebra. Moreover, we investigate some properties of these…

Hurwitz numbers enumerate branched morphisms between Riemannn surfaces with fixed numerical data. They represent important objects in enumerative geometry that are accessible by combinatorial techniques. In the past decade, many variants of…

Let B be an undefined quaternion algebra over Q. Following the explicit chacterization of some Eichler orders in B given by Hashimoto, we define explicit embeddings of these orders in some local rings of matrices; we describe the two…

We give a proof of the geometric fundamental lemma of Kottwitz. As explained by Laumon, this implies the fundamental lemma for the unitary groups.

A conjecture for higher order separation on generic rational surfaces with some new results about standard divisors.

Quadrilateral layouts on surfaces are valuable in texture mapping, and essential in generation of quadrilateral meshes and in fitting splines. Previous work has characterized such layouts as a special metric on a surface or as a meromorphic…

Let X be a closed surface of genus two embedded in the 3-sphere. Then X inherits a metric and an orientation, which give an almost complex structure, which automatically integrates to a genuine complex structure, making X a Riemann surface.…
