Grothendieck dessins d'enfants - current surveys or text you can recommend?

I was recommended this forum to be the leading site for algebraic geometry, so I would like to ask you a question about Grothendieck dessins d´enfants. My background is in maps on surfaces (graph ...

Is there an algorithm to compute a Belyi map for the Riemann surface?

Let $y^2=x^5-x-1$ be an affine model of a projective complex curve, is there an algorithm to compute the Belyi map (preferably of small degree), i.e., map to the projective line ramified only at $\{0,...

The Smith decomposition of the graph Laplacian and Locality

Let $X$ be a graph. Let $V(X)$ and $E(X)$ be the sets of vertices and edges of the graph respectively. If $f:V(X) \rightarrow G$ where $G$ is an abelian group, then one can define a graph Laplacian as ...

Minimal algebraic degree of symmetric unit distance embedding of Heawood graph

I'm looking at embeddings of the Heawood graph in the plane as unit distance graph. Apparently the first such embedding was given by Gerbracht, 2009 and has algebraic (over the rationals) coordinates ...

Measuring the failure of basepoint independence of the rotor-routing model for non-planar ribbon graphs

In this question from 2012, Jordan Ellenberg asks if the set of spanning trees of a graph $G$ is naturally a torsor for the critical group (also called the sandpile group or the picard group $Pic^0(G)$...

Reconstructing a function from its variants that negate one argument

Call two functions $g(x_1,\ldots,x_n)$ and $h(x_1,\ldots,x_n)$ from complex numbers to complex numbers equivalent if they are the same up to the order of their arguments. Formally: there is a ...

Varieties determined by a characteristic-type of polynomial with the structure of an underlying graph

While writing my master thesis, following problem came up: Given a digraph $G$ with edges $e_1,..,e_n$ and a given a $n\times n$- matrix $A\in\mathbb{C}^{n\times n}$ such that $A_{ij}=0$ if the ending ...

Relation between a cycle on a toroidal graph and divisors of elliptic curve over complex plane

I am very new to algebraic geometry. I was reading about divisors on a scheme. I am wondering does there is some connection between the followings. An elliptic curve over the complex plane we can ...
