Higher-order Weierstrass Weights of Branch Points on Superelliptic Curves
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we consider the problem of calculating the higherorder Weierstrass weight of the branch points of a superelliptic curve C. For any q > 1, we give an exact formula for the q-weight of an affine branch point. We also find a formula for the q-weight of a point at infinity in the case where n and d are relatively prime. With these formulas, for any fixed n, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the ratio of the q-weight of the branch points, denoted BWq , to the total q-weight of points on the curve: lim inf d→∞ BWq g(g − 1)(2q − 1) ≥ n+ 1 3(n− 1)(2q − 1) , with equality when the limit is taken such that gcd(n, d) = 1.

متن کاملGeneralized Wronskians and Weierstrass Weights
Given a point P on a smooth projective curve C of genus g, one can determine the Weierstrass weight of that point by looking at a certain Wronskian. In practice, this computation is difficult to do for large genus. We introduce a natural generalization of the Wronskian matrix, which depends on a sequence of integers s = m0, . . . ,mg−1 and show that the determinant of our matrix is nonzero at P...
متن کاملRemarks on Numerical Semigroups
We extend results on Weierstrass semigroups at ramified points of double covering of curves to any numerical semigroup whose genus is large enough. As an application we strengthen the properties concerning Weierstrass weights stated in [To]. 0. Introduction Let H be a numerical semigroup, that is, a subsemigroup of (N,+) whose complement is finite. Examples of such semigroups are the Weierstras...
متن کاملThe group of Weierstrass points of a plane quartic with at least eight hyperflexes
The group generated by the Weierstrass points of a smooth curve in its Jacobian is an intrinsic invariant of the curve. We determine this group for all smooth quartics with eight hyperflexes or more. Since Weierstrass points are closely related to moduli spaces of curves, as an application, we get bounds on both the rank and the torsion part of this group for a generic quartic having a fixed nu...
متن کاملElliptic Curves in Montgomery Form with B=1 and Their Low Order Torsion
This paper proves that the Montgomery form elliptic curves that are cheaply transformable into short Weierstrass form by a simple change of variables (x, y) 7→ (x+α, y) (instead of a more general affine change of variables) are precisely the curves with B = 1. The points of order 2 and 4 on these curves are described, and it is observed that the x-coordinates of these points are consecutive fie...
