Belyi's theorem

In mathematics, Belyi's theorem on algebraic curves states that any non-singular algebraic curve C, defined by algebraic number coefficients, represents a compact Riemann surface which is a ramified covering of the Riemann sphere, ramified at three points only.

This is a result of G. V. Belyi from 1979. At the time it was considered surprising, and it spurred Grothendieck to develop his theory of dessins d'enfant, which describes non-singular algebraic curves over the algebraic numbers using combinatorial data.

Quotients of the upper half-plane

It follows that the Riemann surface in question can be taken to be the quotient

H/Γ

(where H is the upper half-plane and Γ is a subgroup of finite index in the modular group) compactified by cusps. Since the modular group has non-congruence subgroups, it is not the conclusion that any such curve is a modular curve.

Belyi functions

A Belyi function is a holomorphic map from a compact Riemann surface S to the complex projective line P1(C) ramified only over three points, which after a Möbius transformation may be taken to be . Belyi functions may be described combinatorially by dessins d'enfants.

Belyi functions and dessins d'enfants – but not Belyi's theorem – date at least to the work of Felix Klein; he used them in his article (Klein 1879) to study an 11-fold cover of the complex projective line with monodromy group PSL(2,11).[1]

Applications

Belyi's theorem is an existence theorem for Belyi functions, and has subsequently been much used in the inverse Galois problem.

Pater Patriae

Augusto fu il primo imperatore romano che, a partire dal 2 a.C. venne onorato del titolo di pater patriae.[1] Pater Patriae (Padre della Patria) era un titolo onorifico conferito nell'antica Roma. La locuzione latina iscritta di solito sulle monete o su i monumenti imperiali era abbreviata epigraficamente come P.P. Il titolo non rappresentava una particolare magistratura e quindi non aveva carattere giuridico ma era solo un riconoscimento onorario ufficiale attribuito dallo Stato. Anc...
