“Torsion Subgroups of Hyperelliptic Jacobian Varieties”
Abstract: In this talk, we explore some number theoretic aspects of hyperelliptic curves. It is known that the number of isomorphism classes of hyperelliptic curves with the same discriminant over a fixed number field is finite. A more challenging task is to count, if not list, all such isomorphism classes. We also present explicit constructions of hyperelliptic Jacobian varieties with rational torsion points of prescribed order.
