Automorphisms of Riemann Surfaces and Related Topics

Description of the session

Automorphism groups of surfaces have been studied for many years with major results dating back to Klein and Wiman. In recent years there has been a major revival in this area mainly due to the great advances in computer algebra systems, such as GAP, and the advances in finite group theory such as the classification of finite simple groups. Moreover the area has strong links to topology, number theory and combinatorics in the area of Teichm\"uller spaces, mapping class groups and the Grothendieck-Teichmüller theory of Dessins D'enfants. The goal of this session is to explore recent advances in this area and applications to other areas of mathematics. Topics of the session include, but are not limited to:

Topics (in no particular order)

  • Compact Riemann surfaces and their automorphisms
  • Klein surfaces and their automorphisms
  • Galois extensions of function fields
  • Hurwitz curves, and quasi-platonic surfaces
  • Fields of definition and moduli fields
  • Dessins d’enfants
  • Defining equations for surfaces
  • Automorphisms of curves of over arbitrary fields
  • Jacobians of curves with automorphisms
  • Finite subgroups of mapping class groups
  • Applications to moduli and Teichmüller problems
  • Group theoretic computational methods
