Frobenius nonclassicality with respect to linear systems of curves of arbitrary degree

Nazar Arakelian, Herivelto Borges (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

For each integer s ≥ 1, we present a family of curves that are $_{q}$ -Frobenius nonclassical with respect to the linear system of plane curves of degree s. In the case s=2, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for such curves to be $_{q}$ -Frobenius nonclassical with respect to the linear system of conics. In the $_{q}$ -Frobenius nonclassical cases, we determine the exact number of $_{q}$ -rational points. In the remaining cases, an upper bound for the number of $_{q}$ -rational points will follow from Stöhr-Voloch...

Gilberto Bini, John Harer (2011)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Let $M_{g}^{n}$ be the moduli space of $n$ -pointed Riemann surfaces of genus $g$ . Denote by $\bar{M_{g}^{n}}$ the Deligne-Mumford compactification of $M_{g}^{n}$ . In the present paper, we calculate the orbifold and the ordinary Euler characteristic of $\bar{M_{g}^{n}}$ for any $g$ and $n$ such that $n > 2 - 2 g$ .

Essential dimension of moduli of curves and other algebraic stacks

Patrick Brosnan, Zinovy Reichstein, Angelo Vistoli (2011)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

In this paper we consider questions of the following type. Let $k$ be a base field and $K / k$ be a field extension. Given a geometric object $X$ over a field $K$ (e.g. a smooth curve of genus $g$ ), what is the least transcendence degree of a field of definition of $X$ over the base field $k$ ? In other words, how many independent parameters are needed to define $X$ ? To study these questions we introduce a notion of essential dimension for an algebraic stack. Using the resulting theory, we give a complete...

An index inequality for embedded pseudoholomorphic curves in symplectizations

Michael Hutchings (2002)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Let $Σ$ be a surface with a symplectic form, let $φ$ be a symplectomorphism of $Σ$ , and let $Y$ be the mapping torus of $φ$ . We show that the dimensions of moduli spaces of embedded pseudoholomorphic curves in $ℝ \times 𝕐$ , with cylindrical ends asymptotic to periodic orbits of $φ$ or multiple covers thereof, are bounded from above by an additive relative index. We deduce some compactness results for these moduli spaces. This paper establishes some of the foundations for a program with Michael Thaddeus, to...

Rational points on curves

Michael Stoll (2011)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

This is an extended version of an invited lecture I gave at the Journées Arithmétiques in St. Étienne in July 2009. We discuss the state of the art regarding the problem of finding the set of rational points on a (smooth projective) geometrically integral curve $C$ over $ℚ$ . The focus is on practical aspects of this problem in the case that the genus of $C$ is at least $2$ , and therefore the set of rational points is finite.

The Kodaira dimension of the moduli space of Prym varieties

Gavril Farkas, Katharina Ludwig (2010)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We study the enumerative geometry of the moduli space $ℛ_{g}$ of Prym varieties of dimension $g - 1$ . Our main result is that the compactication of $ℛ_{g}$ is of general type as soon as $g > 13$ and $g$ is different from 15. We achieve this by computing the class of two types of cycles on $ℛ_{g}$ : one defined in terms of Koszul cohomology of Prym curves, the other defined in terms of Raynaud theta divisors associated to certain vector bundles on curves. We formulate a Prym–Green conjecture on syzygies of Prym-canonical...

Moduli of smoothness of functions and their derivatives

Z. Ditzian, S. Tikhonov (2007)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Relations between moduli of smoothness of the derivatives of a function and those of the function itself are investigated. The results are for $L_{p} (T)$ and $L_{p} [- 1, 1]$ for 0 < p < ∞ using the moduli of smoothness $ω^{r} {(f, t)}_{p}$ and $ω_{φ}^{r} {(f, t)}_{p}$ respectively.

Bounds on the denominators in the canonical bundle formula

Enrica Floris (2013)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

In this work we study the moduli part in the canonical bundle formula of an lc-trivial fibration whose general fibre is a rational curve. If $r$ is the Cartier index of the fibre, it was expected that $12 r$ would provide a bound on the denominators of the moduli part. Here we prove that such a bound cannot even be polynomial in $r$ , we provide a bound $N (r)$ and an example where the smallest integer that clears the denominators of the moduli part is $N (r) / r$ . Moreover we prove that even locally the denominators...

Rational points on $X_{0}^{+} (p^{r})$

Yuri Bilu, Pierre Parent, Marusia Rebolledo (2013)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

Using the recent isogeny bounds due to Gaudron and Rémond we obtain the triviality of $X_{0}^{+} (p^{r}) (ℚ)$ , for $r > 1$ and $p$ a prime number exceeding $2 \cdot 10^{11}$ . This includes the case of the curves $X_{split} (p)$ . We then prove, with the help of computer calculations, that the same holds true for $p$ in the range $11 \leq p \leq 10^{14}$ , $p \neq 13$ . The combination of those results completes the qualitative study of rational points on $X_{0}^{+} (p^{r})$ undertook in our previous work, with the only exception of $p^{r} = 13^{2}$ .

Explicit Teichmüller curves with complementary series

Carlos Matheus, Gabriela Weitze-Schmithüsen (2013)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

We construct an explicit family of arithmetic Teichmüller curves $𝒞_{2 k}$ , $k \in ℕ$ , supporting $SL (2, ℝ)$ -invariant probabilities $μ_{2 k}$ such that the associated $SL (2, ℝ)$ -representation on $L^{2} (𝒞_{2 k}, μ_{2 k})$ has complementary series for every $k \geq 3$ . Actually, the size of the spectral gap along this family goes to zero. In particular, the Teichmüller geodesic flow restricted to these explicit arithmetic Teichmüller curves $𝒞_{2 k}$ has arbitrarily slow rate of exponential mixing.

$𝒟$ -bundles and integrable hierarchies

David Ben-Zvi, Thomas Nevins (2011)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We study the geometry of $𝒟$ -bundles—locally projective $𝒟$ -modules—on algebraic curves, and apply them to the study of integrable hierarchies, specifically the multicomponent Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (KP) and spin Calogero–Moser (CM) hierarchies. We show that KP hierarchies have a geometric description as flows on moduli spaces of $𝒟$ -bundles; in particular, we prove that the local structure of $𝒟$ -bundles is captured by the full Sato Grassmannian. The rational, trigonometric, and elliptic solutions...

Complete pluripolar curves and graphs

Tomas Edlund (2004)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

It is shown that there exist $C^{\infty}$ functions on the boundary of the unit disk whose graphs are complete pluripolar. Moreover, for any natural number k, such functions are dense in the space of $C^{k}$ functions on the boundary of the unit disk. We show that this result implies that the complete pluripolar closed $C^{\infty}$ curves are dense in the space of closed $C^{k}$ curves in ℂⁿ. We also show that on each closed subset of the complex plane there is a continuous function whose graph is complete pluripolar. ...

On covering and quasi-unsplit families of curves

Laurent Bonavero, Cinzia Casagrande, Stéphane Druel (2007)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Given a covering family $V$ of effective 1-cycles on a complex projective variety $X$ , we find conditions allowing one to construct a geometric quotient $q : X \to Y$ , with $q$ regular on the whole of $X$ , such that every fiber of $q$ is an equivalence class for the equivalence relation naturally defined by $V$ . Among other results, we show that on a normal and $ℚ$ -factorial projective variety $X$ with canonical singularities and $dim X \leq 4$ , every covering and quasi-unsplit family $V$ of rational curves generates a geometric...

On invariants of elliptic curves on average

Amir Akbary, Adam Tyler Felix (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

We prove several results regarding some invariants of elliptic curves on average over the family of all elliptic curves inside a box of sides A and B. As an example, let E be an elliptic curve defined over ℚ and p be a prime of good reduction for E. Let $e_{E} (p)$ be the exponent of the group of rational points of the reduction modulo p of E over the finite field $_{p}$ . Let be the family of elliptic curves $E_{a, b} : y^{2} = x^{3} + a x + b$ , where |a| ≤ A and |b| ≤ B. We prove that, for any c > 1 and k∈ ℕ, $1 / | | \sum_{E \in} \sum_{p \leq x} e_{E}^{k} (p) = C_{k} l i (x^{k + 1}) + O ((x^{k + 1}) / {(l o g x)}^{c}$ )as x → ∞, as long...

On ramified covers of the projective plane II: Generalizing Segre’s theory

Michael Friedman, Rebecca Lehman, Maxim Leyenson, Mina Teicher (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

The classical Segre theory gives a necessary and sufficient condition for a plane curve to be a branch curve of a (generic) projection of a smooth surface in $ℙ^{3}$ . We generalize this result for smooth surfaces in a projective space of any dimension in the following way: given two plane curves, $B$ and $E$ , we give a necessary and sufficient condition for $B$ to be the branch curve of a surface $X$ in $ℙ^{N}$ and $E$ to be the image of the double curve of a $ℙ^{3}$ -model of $X$ . In the classical Segre theory, a...

Characterization of the torsion of the Jacobians of two families of hyperelliptic curves

Tomasz Jędrzejak (2013)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

Consider the families of curves $C^{n, A} : y ² = x ⁿ + A x$ and $C_{n, A} : y ² = x ⁿ + A$ where A is a nonzero rational. Let $J^{n, A}$ and $J_{n, A}$ denote their respective Jacobian varieties. The torsion points of $C^{3, A} (ℚ)$ and $C_{3, A} (ℚ)$ are well known. We show that for any nonzero rational A the torsion subgroup of $J^{7, A} (ℚ)$ is a 2-group, and for A ≠ 4a⁴,-1728,-1259712 this subgroup is equal to $J^{7, A} (ℚ) [2]$ (for a excluded values of A, with the possible exception of A = -1728, this group has a point of order 4). This is a variant of the corresponding results for $J^{3, A}$ (A ≠ 4) and $J^{5, A}$ . We...

Varieties of minimal rational tangents of codimension 1

Jun-Muk Hwang (2013)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

Let $X$ be a uniruled projective manifold and let $x$ be a general point. The main result of [2] says that if the $(- K_{X})$ -degrees (i.e., the degrees with respect to the anti-canonical bundle of $X$ ) of all rational curves through $x$ are at least $dim X + 1$ , then $X$ is a projective space. In this paper, we study the structure of $X$ when the $(- K_{X})$ -degrees of all rational curves through $x$ are at least $dim X$ . Our study uses the projective variety $𝒞_{x} \subset ℙ T_{x} (X)$ , called the VMRT at $x$ , defined as the union of tangent directions to the...
