Generalised elliptic functions

Matthew England, Chris Athorne (2012)

Open Mathematics

We consider multiply periodic functions, sometimes called Abelian functions, defined with respect to the period matrices associated with classes of algebraic curves. We realise them as generalisations of the Weierstraß ℘-function using two different approaches. These functions arise naturally as solutions to some of the important equations of mathematical physics and their differential equations, addition formulae, and applications have all been recent topics of study. The first approach discussed...

Genus 3 normal coverings of the Riemann sphere branched over 4 points.

Yolanda Fuertes, Manfred Streit (2006)

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

In this paper we study the 5 families of genus 3 compact Riemann surfaces which are normal coverings of the Riemann sphere branched over 4 points from very different aspects: their moduli spaces, the uniform Belyi functions that factorize through the quotient by the automorphism groups and the Weierstrass points of the non hyperelliptic families.

Invariant Spin Structures on Riemann Surfaces

Sadok Kallel, Denis Sjerve (2010)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

We investigate the action of the automorphism group of a closed Riemann surface of genus at least two on its set of theta characteristics (or spin structures). We give a characterization of those surfaces admitting a non-trivial automorphism fixing either all of the spin structures or just one. The case of hyperelliptic curves and of the Klein quartic are discussed in detail.
