Function fields of characteristic p modular curves, and mod p reductions of the classical modular equation
Let l and p be distinct primes, l>2. There are "characteristic p modular curves" X_0(l) and X(l), defined over an algebraic closure, K, of Z/p, solving moduli problems for elliptic curves with some ...

Are curves over imperfect fields defined over a smaller field?
Let $C$ be regular projective curve defined over a field $K$. Let $K/L$ be a totally inseparable finite extension. Does there exist a regular projective curve $C'$ over $L$ such that that the pullback ...

Unicritical rational functions on curves in characteristic $p$
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic $p$, and let $X_{/k}$ be a smooth projective connected curve. Let $x_0$ be a point of $X(k)$.
How precisely can one describe the ...

vanishing of higher algebraic de Rham cohomology and sheaves of differentials for singular curves
I'm looking for some results or references about de Rham cohomology of curves in less-than-optimal cases. The two vanishing results I care about are:
$H^{k}_{\text{dR}}(X) = 0$ for $k>2$, since $H^...

Surjectivity of map of Picard schemes implies abelian
Note: This question was asked on MSE first, but got zero reactions. So I deleted it there, and am now posting it here.
I am looking for a reference or explanation of the fact that is used in Mumford'...

Examples of semi-stable models of curves
Let $R$ be a discrete valuation ring with fraction field $K$ of characteristic zero and residue field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. Assume $k$ is algebraically closed. I want to produce examples of ...

Bad primes of twists of modular curves $X_E^{-1}(p)$
I am interested in a good reference for reading about primes of bad reduction for the modular curve $X_E^{-}(N)$, which is a twist of $X(N)$ parametrizing all elliptic curves $E'$ whose $N$-torsion ...

Do we have $\cap_{P\in S}\left(\mathcal{O}_P+(1-\tau)(K)\right)=\left(\cap_{P\in S}\mathcal{O}_P\right)+(1-\tau)(K)$?
Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a finite field and let $q$ be its number of elements. Let $(C,\mathcal{O}_C)$ be a geometrically irreducible smooth projective curve over $\mathbb{F}$ and let $K=\mathbb{F}(C)$ be ...

Smoothability of stable curves in mixed characteristic
Let $R$ be a complete DVR with residue field $k$ algebraically closed of characteristic $p$ and fraction field $K$ of characteristic zero. Let $C$ be a stable curve (in the sense of Mumford-Deligne) ...
