Machine learning predicts arithmetic curve invariants with high accuracy.

Minimal crossing number found in arithmetic curve systems.

In this article, we investigate when the set of primitive geodesic lengths on a Riemannian manifold have arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions. We prove that in the space of negatively curved metrics, a metric having such arithmetic progressions is quite rare. We introduce almost arithmetic progressions, a coarsific…

Study on curves on specific arithmetic quotients of hyperbolic 2-ball.

We show that asymptotically the first Betti number, or the arithmetic genus, of a Shimura curve satisfies the Gauss--Bonnet equality. We also show that the first Betti number of a congruence hyperbolic 3--orbifold asymptotically vanishes relatively to hyperbolic volume.

We investigate the arithmetic of algebraic curves on coarse moduli spaces for special linear rank two local systems on surfaces with fixed boundary traces. We prove a structure theorem for morphisms from the affine line into the moduli space. We show that the set of integral points on any nondegenerate algebraic curve …

Characterizes arithmetic and commensurable links in curved surfaces.

The paper characterizes arithmetic metrics in coarsely geometric settings.

In this paper, complement-equivalent arithmetic Zariski pairs will be exhibited answering in the negative a question by Eyral-Oka on these curves and their groups. A complement-equivalent arithmetic Zariski pair is a pair of complex projective plane curves having Galois-conjugate equations in some number field whose co…

A Teichmüller curve is an algebraic and isometric immersion of an algebraic curve into the moduli space of Riemann surfaces. We give the first explicit algebraic models of Teichmüller curves of positive genus. Our methods are based on the study of certain Hilbert modular forms and the use of Ahlfors's variational formu…

Study finds bounds for systole length on arithmetic punctured spheres.

Finite totally geodesic hypersurfaces in curved manifolds proven.

We compute the class of arithmetic genus two Teichmueller curves in the Picard group of pseudo-Hilbert modular surfaces, distinguished according to their torsion order and spin invariant. As an application, we compute the number of genus two square-tiled surfaces with these invariants. The main technical tool is the co…

We prove that every algebraic curve X defined over the algebraic closure of the rationals is birational over the complex numbers to a Teichmuller curve.

We study lattices in non-positively curved metric spaces. Borel density is established in that setting as well as a form of Mostow rigidity. A converse to the flat torus theorem is provided. Geometric arithmeticity results are obtained after a detour through superrigidity and arithmeticity of abstract lattices. Residua…

Study confirms nullity of biharmonic maps family, linking spectral and arithmetic geometry.

Study transcendence of abelian differential periods from bi-algebraic perspective.

New arithmetic phenomenon 'murmurations' detected using AI.

Fuchsian groups with a modular embedding have the richest arithmetic properties among non-arithmetic Fuchsian groups. But they are very rare, all known examples being related either to triangle groups or to Teichmueller curves. In Part I of this paper we study the arithmetic properties of the modular embedding and deve…

Paper proves non-arithmetic Teichmüller length spectra for subgroup of mapping class groups.

We construct some non-arithmetic ball quotients as branched covers of a quotient of an Abelian surface by a finite group, and compare them with lattices that previously appear in the literature. This gives an alternative construction, which is independent of the computer, of some lattices constructed by the author with…

We consider the interplay of point counts, singular cohomology, étale cohomology, eigenvalues of the Frobenius and the Grothendieck ring of varieties for two families of varieties: spaces of rational maps and moduli spaces of marked, degree $d$ rational curves in $\mathbb{P}^n$. We deduce as special cases algebro-geome…

The paper studies representations of braid groups via curves and finds conditions for their Zariski closure and arithmeticity.

A question of Griffiths-Schmid asks when the monodromy group of an algebraic family of complex varieties is arithmetic. We resolve this in the affirmative for the class of algebraic surfaces known as Atiyah-Kodaira manifolds, which have base and fibers equal to complete algebraic curves. Our methods are topological in …

Study intersections of curves on translation surfaces, focusing on regular polygons and their Teichmüller disks.

We investigate modular embeddings for semi-arithmetic Fuchsian groups. First we prove some purely algebro-geometric or even topological criteria for a regular map from a smooth complex curve to a quaternionic Shimura variety to be covered by a modular embedding. Then we set up an adelic formalism for modular embeddings…

The {\em Wiman-Edge pencil} is the universal family $\Cs/\mathcal B$ of projective, genus $6$, complex-algebraic curves admitting a faithful action of the icosahedral group $\Af_5$. The goal of this paper is to prove that the monodromy of $\Cs/\mathcal B$ is commensurable with a Hilbert modular group; in particular is …

In this paper a new intrinsic geometric characterization of the symmetric square of a curve and of the ordinary product of two curves is given. More precisely it is shown that the existence on a surface of general type S of irregularity q of an effective divisor D having self-intersection D^2>0 and arithmetic genus q i…

We consider the analogue of Hurwitz curves, smooth projective curves $C$ of genus $g \ge 2$ that realize equality in the Hurwitz bound $|\mathrm{Aut}(C)| \le 84 (g - 1)$, to smooth compact quotients $S$ of the unit ball in $\mathbb{C}^2$. When $S$ is arithmetic, we show that $|\mathrm{Aut}(S)| \le 288 e(S)$, where $e(S…

We determine the spectral curve of charge 3 BPS su(2) monopoles with C_3 cyclic symmetry. The symmetry means that the genus 4 spectral curve covers a (Toda) spectral curve of genus 2. A well adapted homology basis is presented enabling the theta functions and monopole data of the genus 4 curve to be given in terms of g…

Paper extends algebraic geometry results to hyperbolic link complements.

The study quantifies distances between certain hyperbolic surfaces and bounds their number.

We prove that if the Lyapunov spectrum of the Kontsevich-Zorich cocycle over an affine SL$(2,\mathbb{R})$-invariant submanifold is completely degenerate, i.e. $λ_2 = \cdots = λ_g = 0$, then the submanifold must be an arithmetic Teichmueller curve in the moduli space of Abelian differentials over surfaces of genus three…

This paper proves an upper limit on rational points on curves.

Study on moduli spaces of sextic curves with simple singularities and their compactifications.

In this paper we will describe an approach to mirror symmetry for appropriate 1-dimensional DM stacks of arithmetic genus $g \leq 1$, called tcnc curves, which was developed by the author with Treumann and Zaslow in arXiv:1103.2462 . This involves introducing a conjectural sheaf-theoretic model for the Fukaya category …

We give some new methods, based on Lipschitz extension theorems, for bounding filling invariants of subsets of nonpositively curved spaces. We apply our methods to find sharp bounds on higher-order Dehn functions of Sol_{2n+1}, horospheres in euclidean buildings, Hilbert modular groups, and certain S-arithmetic groups.

New hyperbolic manifolds with diverse features created.

We announce results on the structure of CAT(0) groups, CAT(0) lattices and of the underlying spaces. Our statements rely notably on a general study of the full isometry groups of proper CAT(0) spaces. Classical statements about Hadamard manifolds are established for singular spaces; new arithmeticity and rigidity state…

In this note, we study the integral of the 1-form $\log x\frac{dy}{y}-\log y\frac{dx}{x}$ over certain plane curves defined by A-polynomials of knots. It is quite surprising that a Chern-Simons type invariant of 3-manifolds, which can be geometrically computed, may be used to get the exact values of those integrals. Th…

Method calculates systolic length of modular curves.

We study Deraux's non arithmetic orbifold ball quotient surfaces obtained as birational transformations of a quotient $X$ of a particular Abelian surface $A$. Using the fact that $A$ is the Jacobian of the Bolza genus $2$ curve, we identify $X$ as the weighted projective plane $\mathbb{P}(1,3,8)$. We compute the equati…

The reduced Burau representation $V_n$ of the braid group $B_n$ is obtained from the action of $B_n$ on the homology of an infinite cyclic cover of the disc with $n$ punctures. The group homology $H_*(B_n;V_n)$ of braid groups with coefficients in the complexified reduced Burau representation is calculated. Our topolog…
