Teichmueller curves generated by Weierstrass Prym eigenforms in genus three and genus four


الملخص بالإنكليزية

This paper is devoted to the classification of the infinite families of Teichmuller curves generated by Prym eigenforms of genus 3 having a single zero. These curves were discovered by McMullen. The main invariants of our classification is the discriminant D of the corresponding quadratic order, and the generators of this order. It turns out that for D sufficiently large, there are two Teichmueller curves when D=1 modulo 8, only one Teichmueller curve when D=0,4 modulo 8, and no Teichmueller curves when D=5 modulo 8. For small values of D, where this classification is not necessarily true, the number of Teichmueller curves can be determined directly. The ingredients of our proof are first, a description of these curves in terms of prototypes and models, and then a careful analysis of the combinatorial connectedness in the spirit of McMullen. As a consequence, we obtain a description of cusps of Teichmueller curves given by Prym eigenforms. We would like also to emphasis that even though we have the same statement compared to, when D=1 modulo 8, the reason for this disconnectedness is different. The classification of these Teichmueller curves plays a key role in our investigation of the dynamics of SL(2,R) on the intersection of the Prym eigenform locus with the stratum H(2,2), which is the object of a forthcoming paper.
