On the Family of Pentagonal curves of genus 6 and associated modular forms on the Ball

Abstract

In this article we study the inverse of the period map for the family $\mathcal{F}$ of complex algebraic curves of genus 6 equipped with an automorphism of order 5. This is a family with 2 parameters, and is fibred over a certain type of Del Pezzo surace. The period satisfies the hypergeometric differential equation for Appell's $F_1({3/5},{3/5},{2/5},{6/5})$ of two variables after a certain normalization of the variable parameter. This differential equation and the family $\mathcal{F}$ are studied by G. Shimura (1964), T. Terada (1983, 1985), P. Deligne - G.D. Mostow (1986) and T. Yamazaki- M. Yoshida(1984). Recently M. Yoshida presented a new approch using the concept of configration space. Based on their results we show the representation of the inverse of the period map in terms of Riemann theta constants. This is the first variant of the work of H. Shiga (1981) and K. Matsumoto (1989, 2000) to the co-compact case.

Good minimal models with nowhere vanishing holomorphic $1$-forms

Popa and Schnell show that any holomorphic 1-form on a smooth projective variety of general type has zeros. In this article, we show that a smooth good minimal model has a holomorphic 1-form without zero if and only if it admits an analytic fiber bundle structure over a positive dimensional abelian variety.

Algebraic Zhou valuations

In this paper, we generalize Zhou valuations, originally defined on complex domains, to the framework of general schemes. We demonstrate that an algebraic version of the Jonsson--Mustaţă conjecture is equivalent to the statement that every Zhou valuation is quasi-monomial. By introducing a mixed version of jumping numbers and Tian functions associated with valuations, we obtain characterizations of a valuation being a Zhou valuation or computing some jumping number using the Tian functions. Furthermore, we establish the correspondence between Zhou valuations in algebraic settings and their counterparts in analytic settings.
