Premature dismissal of high-redshift elliptical galaxies

It has recently been argued that single-collapse high-redshift models for elliptical galaxy formation can be rejected because they predict large numbers of very red galaxies at intermediate redshifts which are not seen in deep optical-infrared surv...

Elliptic subfields and automorphisms of genus 2 function fields

We study genus 2 function fields with elliptic subfields of degree 2. The locus $Ł_2$ of these fields is a 2-dimensional subvariety of the moduli space $\mathcal M_2$ of genus 2 fields. An equation for $Ł_2$ is already in the work of Clebsch and...

Spectroscopy of Dwarf Elliptical Galaxies in the Fornax Cluster

We present the results of spectroscopic observations of 10 nucleated dwarf elliptical galaxies (dE's) in the Fornax cluster. The blue spectra of Fornax dE galaxies indicate a wide range of metallicities at a given luminosity, similar to those of in...

New unlikely intersections on elliptic surfaces

Consider a Jacobian elliptic surface $E \to C$ with a section $P$ of infinite order. Previous work of the first author and Urzúa over the complex numbers gives a bound on the number of tangencies between $P$ and a torsion section of $E$ (an ``unlike...

Surfaces immersed in Lie algebras associated with elliptic integrals

The main aim of this paper is to study soliton surfaces immersed in Lie algebras associated with ordinary differential equations (ODE's) for elliptic functions. That is, given a linear spectral problem for such an ODE in matrix Lax representation, we...

Root numbers of a family of elliptic curves and two applications

For each $t\in\mathbb{Q}\setminus\{-1,0,1\}$, define an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ by \begin{align*} E_t:y^2=x(x+1)(x+t^2). \end{align*} Using a formula for the root number $W(E_t)$ as a function of $t$ and assuming some standard conjectures...
