Let $q$ be an odd prime power, let $n\ge 2$, and let $V\subsetneq \mathbb F_{q^n}$ be a proper $\mathbb F_q$-vector subspace. Given a nonzero quadratic form $Q(X,Y)\in \mathbb F_{q^n}[X,Y]$, we consider the graph $\Gamma(Q,V)$ that…
Let $n$ be an integer such that the modular curve $X_0(n)$ is hyperelliptic of genus $\ge2$ and such that the Jacobian of $X_0(n)$ has rank $0$ over $\mathbb Q$. We determine all points of $X_0(n)$ defined over quadratic fields, and we give…
We study graphs coming from quadratic spaces over finite fields via orthogonality which generalize a recent result given by Bishnoi, Ihringer, and Pepe (2019). More precisely, we study the graph $\Gamma^{\square}(n,k,q)$ as follows: the…
A {\em maximal partial ovoid} of a generalized quadrangle is a maximal set of points no two of which are collinear. The problem of determining the smallest size of a maximal partial ovoid in quadrangles has been extensively studied in the…
We study elliptic surfaces over $\mathbb{Q}(T)$ with coefficients of a Weierstrass model being polynomials in $\mathbb{Q}[T]$ with degree at most 2. We derive an explicit expression for their rank over $\mathbb{Q}(T)$ depending on the…
Let $C$ be a smooth projective curve defined over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ ($q$ is odd) and let $K=\mathbb{F}_q(C)$ be its function field. Any finite set $S$ of closed points of $C$ gives rise to an integral domain…
We show that the cliques of maximal size in the confluence graph of an arbitrary unital of order $q>2$ have size $q^2$, and that these cliques are the pencils of all blocks through a given point. This solves the Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado problem…
We relate proper isometry classes of maximal lattices in a totally definite quaternary quadratic space (V,q) with trivial discriminant to certain equivalence classes of ideals in the quaternion algebra representing the Clifford invariant of…
We study in detail the profinite group G arising as geometric \'etale iterated monodromy group of an arbitrary quadratic polynomial over a field of characteristic different from two. This is a self-similar closed subgroup of the group of…
We study the elliptic genera of level $N$ at the cusps of $\Gamma_1(N)$ for any complete intersection. These genera are described as the summations of generalized binomial coefficients, where each generalized binomial coefficient is related…
We consider the space $P$ of generic complex 5-degree polynomials. Critical values of such polynomial, i.e. four points in the complex plane, either are vertices of a convex quadrangle $Q$, or vertices of a triangle $T$ with one point…
We show that an elation generalised quadrangle which has p+1 lines on each point, for some prime p, is classical or arises from a flock of a quadratic cone (i.e., is a flock quadrangle).
Ovoids in $\PG(3, \gf(q))$ have been an interesting topic in coding theory, combinatorics, and finite geometry for a long time. So far only two families of ovoids are known. The first is the elliptic quadratics and the second is the Tits…
Let F be the cubic field of discriminant -23 and O its ring of integers. Let Gamma be the arithmetic group GL_2 (O), and for any ideal n subset O let Gamma_0 (n) be the congruence subgroup of level n. In a previous paper, two of us (PG and…
We functorially identify similarity classes of line-bundle-valued quadratic forms on rank two vector bundles with isomorphism classes of pairs consisting of the degree zero and the degree one parts of the associated generalized Clifford…
In this first of a series of three papers we outline an approach to classifying 4d $\mathcal{N}{=}2$ superconformal field theories at rank 2. The classification of allowed scale invariant $\mathcal{N}=2$ Coulomb branch geometries of…
Let $C$ be a hyperelliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$, whose Weierstrass points are defined over extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$ of degree at most three, and at least one of them is rational. Generalizing a result of R. Soleng (in the case…
In this paper we study a geometric coding algorithm for indefinite binary quadratic forms Q for the congruence subgroup \Gamma^0(N), with respect to the usual fundamental domain FN, where N is assumed prime. The cycles Q_1, . . ., Q_n that…
Ovoids of the Klein quadric $Q^+(5,q)$ of $\mathrm{PG}(5,q)$ have been studied in the last 40 year, also because of their connection with spreads of $\mathrm{PG}(3,q)$ and hence translation planes. Beside the classical example given by a…
We prove that quadratic regular algebras of global dimension three on degree-one generators are related to graded skew Clifford algebras. In particular, we prove that almost all such algebras may be constructed as a twist of either a…
