Visualizing holomorphic differentials on a compact Riemann surface?
It is a classical result that the vector space of holomorphic differentials on a compact Riemann surface of genus $g$ has dimension $g$. I am wondering if there is a way of visualizing this wonderful ...

Kinds of differentials and algebraic groups
This Wikipedia article mentions that the analogues of differentials of the first/second/third kind for algebraic groups are abelian varieties/algebraic tori/linear algebraic groups. I guess ...

Extended Abel-Jacobi theorem
Let $X$ be a compact Riemann surface, $u$ a meromorphic function on $X$ with divisor supported on a set of points $\{P_1, ..., P_n\}$, and $f$ a meromorphic function on $X$ such that $f$ has no pole ...

Detecting non-affine automorphisms of a translation surface
Let $(X, \omega)$ be a translation surface, i.e., a Riemann surface with a homomorphism $1$-form.
A central object is the group of affine automorphisms $\text{Aff}^+(X, \omega)$: homeomorphisms of $X$ ...

How does one interpret the wetting area?
This may be a simple question, but I decided to post it here (not just on MSE) because it is very related to a research topic: capillary surfaces.
Let $(M^3,g)$ be a Riemannian $3$-manifold with ...

Residues and Mittag-Leffler sequence
Let $X$ be a compact Riemann surface, $\omega$ a meromorphic differential on $X$ and $f$ a meromorphic function on $X$ with poles only over the points $P_1,\dots,P_d$. The product $\;f\cdot\omega\;$ ...
