An Arakelov inequality in characteristic p and upper bound of p-rank zero locus
2008
In this paper we show an Arakelov inequality for semi-stable families of algebraic curves of genus $g\geq 1$ over characteristic $p$ with nontrivial Kodaira-Spencer maps. We apply this inequality to obtain an upper bound of the number of algebraic curves of $p-$rank zero in a semi-stable family over characteristic $p$ with nontrivial Kodaira-Spencer map in terms of the genus of a general closed fiber, the genus of the base curve and the number of singular fibres. An extension of the above results to smooth families of Abelian varieties over $k$ with $W_2$-lifting assumption is also included.
Tangential Hilbert problem for perturbations of hyperelliptic Hamiltonian systems
1999
The tangential Hilbert 16th problem is to place an upper bound for the number of isolated ovals of algebraic level curves { H ( x , y ) = const } \{H(x,y)=\operatorname {const}\} over which the integral of a polynomial 1-form P ( x , y ) d x + Q ( x , y ) d y P(x,y)\,dx+Q(x,y)\,dy (the Abelian integral) may vanish, the answer to be given in terms of the degrees n = deg H n=\deg H and d = max ( deg P , deg Q ) d=\max (\deg P,\deg Q) . We describe an algorithm producing this upper bound in the form of a primitive recursive (in fact, elementary) function of n n and d d for the particular case of hyperelliptic polynomials H ( x , y ) = y 2 + U ( x ) H(x,y)=y^2+U(x) under the additional as…
Computation of the topological type of a real Riemann surface
2012
We present an algorithm for the computation of the topological type of a real compact Riemann surface associated to an algebraic curve, i.e., its genus and the properties of the set of fixed points of the anti-holomorphic involution $\tau$, namely, the number of its connected components, and whether this set divides the surface into one or two connected components. This is achieved by transforming an arbitrary canonical homology basis to a homology basis where the $\mathcal{A}$-cycles are invariant under the anti-holomorphic involution $\tau$.
Exact, efficient, and complete arrangement computation for cubic curves
2006
AbstractThe Bentley–Ottmann sweep-line method can compute the arrangement of planar curves, provided a number of geometric primitives operating on the curves are available. We discuss the reduction of the primitives to the analysis of curves and curve pairs, and describe efficient realizations of these analyses for planar algebraic curves of degree three or less. We obtain a complete, exact, and efficient algorithm for computing arrangements of cubic curves. Special cases of cubic curves are conics as well as implicitized cubic splines and Bézier curves.The algorithm is complete in that it handles all possible degeneracies such as tangential intersections and singularities. It is exact in t…
Efficient computation of the branching structure of an algebraic curve
2012
An efficient algorithm for computing the branching structure of a compact Riemann surface defined via an algebraic curve is presented. Generators of the fundamental group of the base of the ramified covering punctured at the discriminant points of the curve are constructed via a minimal spanning tree of the discriminant points. This leads to paths of minimal length between the points, which is important for a later stage where these paths are used as integration contours to compute periods of the surface. The branching structure of the surface is obtained by analytically continuing the roots of the equation defining the algebraic curve along the constructed generators of the fundamental gro…
An exact, complete and efficient implementation for computing planar maps of quadric intersection curves
2005
We present the first exact, complete and efficient implementation that computes for a given set P=p1,...,pn of quadric surfaces the planar map induced by all intersection curves p1∩ pi, 2 ≤ i ≤ n, running on the surface of p1. The vertices in this graph are the singular and x-extreme points of the curves as well as all intersection points of pairs of curves. Two vertices are connected by an edge if the underlying points are connected by a branch of one of the curves. Our work is based on and extends ideas developed in [20] and [9].Our implementation is complete in the sense that it can handle all kind of inputs including all degenerate ones where intersection curves have singularities or pa…
Derived categories of irreducible projective curves of arithmetic genus one
2006
We investigate the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on irreducible singular projective curves of arithmetic genus one. A description of the group of exact auto-equivalences and the set of all $t$ -structures of this category is given. We describe the moduli space of stability conditions, obtain a complete classification of all spherical objects in this category and show that the group of exact auto-equivalences acts transitively on them. Harder–Narasimhan filtrations in the sense of Bridgeland are used as our main technical tool.
Complete, exact, and efficient computations with cubic curves
2004
The Bentley-Ottmann sweep-line method can be used to compute thearrangement of planar curves provided a number of geometricprimitives operating on the curves are available. We discuss themathematics of the primitives for planar algebraic curves of degreethree or less and derive efficient realizations. As a result, weobtain a complete, exact, and efficient algorithm for computingarrangements of cubic curves. Conics and cubic splines are specialcases of cubic curves. The algorithm is complete in that it handles all possibledegeneracies including singularities. It is exact in that itprovides the mathematically correct result. It is efficient in thatit can handle hundreds of curves with a quart…
An exact and efficient approach for computing a cell in an arrangement of quadrics
2006
AbstractWe present an approach for the exact and efficient computation of a cell in an arrangement of quadric surfaces. All calculations are based on exact rational algebraic methods and provide the correct mathematical results in all, even degenerate, cases. By projection, the spatial problem is reduced to the one of computing planar arrangements of algebraic curves. We succeed in locating all event points in these arrangements, including tangential intersections and singular points. By introducing an additional curve, which we call the Jacobi curve, we are able to find non-singular tangential intersections. We show that the coordinates of the singular points in our special projected plana…
