### Can all unit-distance graphs have their vertices at algebraic integers?

A graph $G$ is described as a unit-distance graph if there exists a function $f:G \rightarrow \mathbb{C}$ such that for every edge $(u,v) \in E(G)$, we have $|f(u) - f(v)| = 1$. Obviously, we can ...

### References for elliptic integral

I'm trying to learn more about the most general elliptic integral, that is, an integral of the form $$\int\frac{A(x)}{B(x)\sqrt{S(x)}}$$ where $A(x), B(x)$ are arbitrary polynomials and $S(x)$ is ...

### Does a semistable curve descend to a regular base?

Let $f\colon X \rightarrow S$ be a semistable curve of genus $g \ge 0$. Being a semistable curve means that $f$ is a morphism of schemes such that $f$ is proper, flat, and of finite presentation; ...
