We prove that the abelian $K$-surfaces whose endomorphism algebra is a quaternion algebra are parametrized, up to isogeny, by the $K$-rational points of the quotient of certain Shimura curves by the group of their Atkin-Lehner involutions.
For a family of K3 surfaces we implement a variation of a general construction of towers of algebraic curves over finite fields given in a previous paper. As a result we get a good tower over $k=\mathbb{F}_{p^2}$, that is optimal if $p=3$.
In this work we classify all smooth surfaces with geometric genus equal to three and an action of a group G isomorphic to (Z/2)^k such that the quotient is a plane. We find 11 families. We compute the canonical map of all of them, finding…
We study Fourier-Mukai equivalence of K3 surfaces in positive characteristic and show that the classical results over the complex numbers all generalize. The key result is a positive-characteristic version of the Torelli theorem that uses…
In this work we study the affine principal lines of surfaces in 3-space. We consider the binary differential equation of the affine curvature lines and obtain the topological models of these curves near the affine umbilic points (elliptic…
We construct invertible field theories generalizing abelian prequantum spin Chern-Simons theory to manifolds of dimension 4k+3 endowed with a Wu structure of degree 2k+2. After analysing the anomalies of a certain discrete symmetry, we…
Algebraic techniques in phylogenetics have historically been successful at proving identifiability results and have also led to novel reconstruction algorithms. In this paper, we study the ideal of phylogenetic invariants of the…
Any finite dimensional semisimple algebra A over a field K is isomorphic to a direct sum of finite dimensional full matrix rings over suitable division rings. In this paper we will consider the special case where all division rings are…
The affine evaluation map is a surjective homomorphism from the quantum toroidal ${\mathfrak {gl}}_n$ algebra ${\mathcal E}'_n(q_1,q_2,q_3)$ to the quantum affine algebra $U'_q\widehat{\mathfrak {gl}}_n$ at level $\kappa$ completed with…
A description is given of those sequences ${\Bbb S}= (S(0),S(1),\dots,S(l))$ of simple modules over a finite dimensional algebra for which there are only finitely many uniserial modules with consecutive composition factors…
We obtain quantitative versions of the Balog-Szemeredi-Gowers and Freiman theorems in the model case of a finite field geometry F_2^n, improving the previously known bounds in such theorems. For instance, if A is a subset of F_2^n such that…
Here we introduce researchers in algebraic biology to the exciting new field of cophylogenetics. Cophylogenetics is the study of concomitantly evolving organisms (or genes), such as host and parasite species. Thus the natural objects of…
We study quotients of quasi-affine schemes by unipotent groups over fields of characteristic 0. To do this, we introduce a notion of stability which allows us to characterize exactly when a principal bundle quotient exists and, together…
It is known that all but finitely many leaves of a measured foliated 2-complex of thin type are quasi-isometric to an infinite tree with at most two topological ends. We show that if the foliation is cooriented, and the associated R-tree is…
Tropical geometry is a piecewise linear "shadow" of algebraic geometry. It allows for the computation of several cohomological invariants of an algebraic variety. In particular, its application to enumerative algebraic geometry led to…
This is an expository paper. The geometry of phylogenetic trees is used to present in an accessible and pleasant fashion the results of Deligne, Mumford, and Knudsen about the moduli space of n distinct points on the projective line and its…
Theory of representations of F-algebra is a natural development of the theory of F-algebra. Exploring of morphisms of the representation leads to the concepts of generating set and basis of representation. In the book I considered the…
An analysis of the Kimura 3ST model of DNA sequence evolution is given on the basis of its continuous Lie symmetries. The rate matrix commutes with a U(1)xU(1)xU(1) phase subgroup of the group GL(4) of 4x4x4 invertible complex matrices…
We define the \emph{visual complexity} of a plane graph drawing to be the number of basic geometric objects needed to represent all its edges. In particular, one object may represent multiple edges (e.g., one needs only one line segment to…
We introduce the shifted quantum affine algebras. They map homomorphically into the quantized $K$-theoretic Coulomb branches of $3d\ {\mathcal N}=4$ SUSY quiver gauge theories. In type $A$, they are endowed with a coproduct, and they act on…
