In this short note, we construct a minimally intersecting pair of simple closed curves that fill a genus 2 surface with an odd, greater than 3, number of punctures. This finishes the determination of minimally intersecting filling pairs for…

This paper explores the relationship between closed curves on surfaces and their intersections. Like Dehn-Thurston coordinates for simple curves, we explore how to determine closed curves using the number of times they intersect other…

The paper is a contribution to the conjecture of Kobayashi that the complement of a generic curve in the projective plane is hyperbolic, provided the degree is at least five. Previously the authors treated the cases of two quadrics and a…

For every number field $k$, we construct an affine algebraic surface $X$ over $k$ with a Zariski dense set of $k$-rational points, and a regular function $f$ on $X$ inducing an injective map $X(k)\to k$ on $k$-rational points. In fact,…

We prove the filling area conjecture in the hyperelliptic case. In particular, we establish the conjecture for all genus 1 fillings of the circle, extending P. Pu's result in genus 0. We translate the problem into a question about closed…

In analogy with the Manin-Mumford conjecture for algebraic curves, one may ask how a metric graph under the Abel-Jacobi embedding intersects torsion points of its Jacobian. We show that the number of torsion points is finite for metric…

Recent developments of affine algebraic geometry, especially the theory of open algebraic surfaces, provide means to systematically explore geometric and topological properties of polynomials in two variables. Nevertheless, there is one…

A well-known conjecture asserts that the mapping class group of a surface (possibly with punctures/boundary) does not virtually surject onto $\Z$ if the genus of the surface is large. We prove that if this conjecture holds for some genus,…

Tropical refined invariants for toric surfaces, introduced Block and G{\"o}ttsche, are obtained couting tropical curves with a Laurent polynomial multiplicity. Brugall{\'e} and Jaramillo-Puentes then exhibited a polynomial behavior of the…

We consider the problem of counting and of listing topologically inequivalent "planar" {4-valent} maps with a single component and a given number n of vertices. This enables us to count and to tabulate immersions of a circle in a sphere…

We prove the famous Faber intersection number conjecture and other more general results by using a recursion formula of $n$-point functions for intersection numbers on moduli spaces of curves. We also present some vanishing properties of…

Using the theory of minimal models of quasi-projective surfaces we give a new proof of the theorem of Lin-Zaidenberg which says that every topologically contractible algebraic curve in the complex affine plane has equation $X^n=Y^m$ in some…

Esnault-Viehweg developed the theory of cyclic branched coverings $\tilde X\to X$ of smooth surfaces providing a very explicit formula for the decomposition of $H^1(\tilde X,\mathbb{C})$ in terms of a resolution of the ramification locus.…

We develop a formula for tautological integrals over geometric subsets of the Hilbert scheme of points on complex manifolds. As an illustration of the theory, we derive a new iterated residue formula for the number of nodal curves in…

The classical version of B\'ezout's Theorem gives an integer-valued count of the intersection points of hypersurfaces in projective space over an algebraically closed field. Using work of Kass and Wickelgren, we prove a version of…

We provide the first non-trivial examples of quasi-isometric embeddings between curve complexes. These are induced either by puncturing a closed surface or via orbifold coverings. As a corollary, we give new quasi-isometric embeddings…

Paul Erdos asked if, among sufficiently many points in general position, there are always $k$ points such that all the circles through $3$ of these $k$ points have different radii. He later proved that this is indeed the case. However, he…

We prove that for every smooth projective integral curve $X$ of genus at least $2$ over $\mathbb C$, there exists $x \in X(\mathbb C)$ such that no connected finite \'etale cover of $X-\{x\}$ admits a nonconstant morphism to $\mathbb G_m$.…

This note presents a formula for the enumerative invariants of arbitrary genus in toric surfaces. The formula computes the number of curves of a given genus through a collection of generic points in the surface. The answer is given in terms…

Let $X$ be a smooth, projective and geometrically connected curve of genus at least two, defined over a number field. In 1984, Szpiro conjectured that $X$ has a "small point". In this paper we prove that if $X$ is a cyclic cover of prime…
