Quadratic Differentials and Equivariant Deformation Theory of Curves

Bernhard Köck, Aristides Kontogeorgis (2012)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Given a finite p -group G acting on a smooth projective curve X over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p , the dimension of the tangent space of the associated equivariant deformation functor is equal to the dimension of the space of coinvariants of G acting on the space V of global holomorphic quadratic differentials on X . We apply known results about the Galois module structure of Riemann-Roch spaces to compute this dimension when G is cyclic or when the action of G on X is weakly...

Quantization of canonical cones of algebraic curves

Benjamin Enriquez, Alexander Odesskii (2002)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We introduce a quantization of the graded algebra of functions on the canonical cone of an algebraic curve C , based on the theory of formal pseudodifferential operators. When C is a complex curve with Poincaré uniformization, we propose another, equivalent construction, based on the work of Cohen-Manin-Zagier on Rankin-Cohen brackets. We give a presentation of the quantum algebra when C is a rational curve, and discuss the problem of constructing algebraically “differential liftings”.

Quantum Singularity Theory for A ( r - 1 ) and r -Spin Theory

Huijun Fan, Tyler Jarvis, Yongbin Ruan (2011)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We give a review of our construction of a cohomological field theory for quasi-homogeneous singularities and the r -spin theory of Jarvis-Kimura-Vaintrob. We further prove that for a singularity W of type A our construction of the stack of W -curves is canonically isomorphic to the stack of r -spin curves described by Abramovich and Jarvis. We further prove that our theory satisfies all the Jarvis-Kimura-Vaintrob axioms for an r -spin virtual class. Therefore, the Faber-Shadrin-Zvonkine proof of the...

Quartic del Pezzo surfaces over function fields of curves

Brendan Hassett, Yuri Tschinkel (2014)

Open Mathematics

We classify quartic del Pezzo surface fibrations over the projective line via numerical invariants, giving explicit examples for small values of the invariants. For generic such fibrations, we describe explicitly the geometry of spaces of sections to the fibration, and mappings to the intermediate Jacobian of the total space. We exhibit examples where these are birational, which has applications to arithmetic questions, especially over finite fields.
