Signatures of alternating group actions with non-zero quotient genus

Jennifer Paulhus, Aaron Wootton

We classify up to signature all the ways the alternating group can act on a compact Riemann surfaces when the quotient genus is greater than . In particular, we prove that…

Non-Abelian Simple Groups Act with Almost All Signatures

Mariela Carvacho, Jennifer Paulhus, Tom Tucker +1

The topological data of a group action on a compact Riemann surface is often encoded using a tuple called its signature. There are two easily verifiable arithm…

Omnipersistent signatures

James W. Anderson, Aaron Wootton

In this note, we lay the groundwork for a new approach to the problem of group-signature classification of group actions on closed Riemann surfaces. This new approach first focuses…

On automorphisms of algebraic curves

A. Broughton, T. Shaska, A. Wootton

An irreducible, algebraic curve of genus defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $\mbox{char } \, k = p \geq 0$, has finite automo…

Gaps in the space of skeletal signatures

James W Anderson, Aaron Wootton

Skeletal signatures were introduced in [J W Anderson and A Wootton, A Lower Bound for the Number of Group Actions on a Compact Riemann Surface, Algebr. Geom. Topol. 12 (2012) 19--3…

A Lower Bound for the Number of Group Actions on a Compact Riemann Surface

James W. Anderson, Aaron Wootton

We prove that the number of distinct group actions on compact Riemann surfaces of a fixed genus is at least quadratic in . We do this through the introduction of a coa…
