On periodic solutions of 2{periodic Lyness' equations

Guy Bastien
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the existence of periodic solutions of the non-autonomous periodic Lyness' recurrence un+2 = (an +un+1)=un where fangn is a cycle with positive values a,b and with positive initial conditions.

Complete intersectionbers in F-theory

TL;DR: In this paper, a general algorithm for computing the Weierstrass form of elliptic curves dened as complete intersections of dierent codimensions is presented, which can be used to solve all cases of complete intersection of two equations in an ambient toric variety.

TL;DR: In this paper, a one-parameter family of integrable quadratic Cremona maps of the plane preserving a pencil of curves of degree 6 and of genus 1 is presented.

On the Kernel Curves Associated with Walks in the Quarter Plane

TL;DR: In this paper, the basic properties of the kernel curve (irreducibility, singularities, genus, uniformization, etc.) were investigated for generating series of walks in the quarter plane.

Birational maps conjugate to the rank 2 cluster mutations of affine types and their geometry

TL;DR: The invariant curve of the map is a singular quartic curve and its resolution of the singularity induces a discrete integrable system on a conic governed by a cubic birational map conjugate to the cluster mutations of type $A^{(2)}_2$.
