Integral torsion points on abelian varieties over function fields

Robin de Jong, Nicole Looper, Farbod Shokrieh

We prove an analogue, over global function fields, of a conjecture due to Su-Ion Ih concerning the non-Zariski density of torsion points on abelian varieties that are integral with…

Rings of tautological forms on moduli spaces of curves

Robin de Jong, Stefan van der Lugt

We define and study a natural system of tautological rings on the moduli spaces of marked curves at the level of differential forms. We show that certain 2-forms obtained from the…

Heights on curves and limits of Hodge structures

Spencer Bloch, Robin de Jong, Emre Can Sertöz

We exhibit a precise connection between Néron--Tate heights on smooth curves and biextension heights of limit mixed Hodge structures associated to smoothing deformations of singula…

Frobenius' theta function and Arakelov invariants in genus three

Robin de Jong

We give explicit formulas for the Kawazumi-Zhang invariant and Faltings delta-invariant of a compact and connected Riemann surface of genus three. The formulas are in terms of two…

Tropical moments of tropical Jacobians

Robin de Jong, Farbod Shokrieh

Each metric graph has canonically associated to it a polarized real torus called its tropical Jacobian. A fundamental real-valued invariant associated to each polarized real torus…

Metric graphs, cross ratios, and Rayleigh's laws

Robin de Jong, Farbod Shokrieh

We study a notion of cross ratios on metric graphs and electrical networks. We show that several known results immediately follow from the basic properties of cross ratios. We show…

Faltings height and Néron-Tate height of a theta divisor

Robin de Jong, Farbod Shokrieh

We prove a formula, which, given a principally polarized abelian variety over the field of algebraic numbers, relates the stable Faltings height of with the Néron--Tate…

On the height of Gross-Schoen cycles in genus three

Robin de Jong

We show that there exists a sequence of genus three curves defined over the rationals in which the height of a canonical Gross-Schoen cycle tends to infinity.

Chern-Weil theory for line bundles with the family Arakelov metric

Michiel Jespers, Robin de Jong

We prove a result of Chern-Weil type for canonically metrized line bundles on one-parameter families of smooth complex curves. Our result generalizes a result due to J.I. Burgos Gi…

Néron-Tate heights of cycles on jacobians

Robin de Jong

We develop a method to calculate the Néron-Tate height of tautological integral cycles on jacobians of curves defined over number fields. As examples we obtain closed expressions f…

Singularities of the biextension metric for families of abelian varieties

Jose Ignacio Burgos Gil, David Holmes, Robin de Jong

In this paper we study the singularities of the invariant metric of the Poincaré bundle over a family of abelian varieties and their duals over a base of arbitrary dimension. As an…

Point-like limit of the hyperelliptic Zhang-Kawazumi invariant

Robin de Jong

The behavior near the boundary in the Deligne-Mumford compactification of many functions on the moduli space of pointed Riemann surfaces can be conveniently expressed using the not…

Faltings delta-invariant and semistable degeneration

Robin de Jong

We determine the asymptotic behavior of the Arakelov metric, the Arakelov-Green's function, and the Faltings delta-invariant for arbitrary one-parameter families of complex curves…

Néron models and the height jump divisor

Owen Biesel, David Holmes, Robin de Jong

We define an algebraic analogue, in the case of jacobians of curves, of the height jump divisor introduced recently by R. Hain. We give explicit combinatorial formulae for the heig…

Canonical heights and division polynomials

Robin de Jong, J. Steffen Müller

We discuss a new method to compute the canonical height of an algebraic point on a hyperelliptic jacobian over a number field. The method does not require any geometrical models, n…

Asymptotics of the Néron height pairing

David Holmes, Robin de Jong

The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we study the asymptotics of the Néron height pairing between degree-zero divisors on a family of degenerating compact Riemann surfaces para…

Normal functions and the height of Gross-Schoen cycles

Robin de Jong

We prove a variant of a formula due to S. Zhang relating the Beilinson-Bloch height of the Gross-Schoen cycle on a pointed curve with the self-intersection of its relative dualizin…

Special values of canonical Green's functions

Robin de Jong

We give a precise formula for the value of the canonical Green's function at a pair of Weierstrass points on a hyperelliptic Riemann surface. Further we express the 'energy' of the…

Asymptotic behavior of the Kawazumi-Zhang invariant for degenerating Riemann surfaces

Robin de Jong

Around 2008 N. Kawazumi and S. Zhang introduced a new fundamental numerical invariant for compact Riemann surfaces. One way of viewing the Kawazumi-Zhang invariant is as a quotient…

Second variation of Zhang's lambda-invariant on the moduli space of curves

Robin de Jong

We compute the second variation of the λ-invariant, recently introduced by S. Zhang, on the complex moduli space M_g of curves of genus g>1, using work of N. Kawazumi. As a result…

Let X be a smooth projective curve of positive genus defined over a number field K. Assume given a Galois covering map x from X to the projective line over K and a place v of K. We…

Using the discriminant modular form and the Noether formula it is possible to write the admissible self-intersection of the relative dualising sheaf of a semistable hyperelliptic c…

Admissible constants for genus 2 curves

Robin de Jong

S.-W. Zhang recently introduced a new adelic invariant for curves of genus at least 2 over number fields and function fields. We calculate this invariant when the genus is equal to…

Covers of surfaces with fixed branch locus

Bas Edixhoven, Robin de Jong, Jan Schepers

Given a connected smooth projective surface X over the complex numbers, together with a simple normal crossings divisor D on it, we study finite normal covers Y of X that are unram…
