Abstract:

The geometric theory of dessins d’enfants is used to make explicit calculations on curves. In particular, an algorithmic procedure for the construction of ramified covering of curves over number fields with prescribed ramifications and for the explicit construction of Jenkins-Strebel differentials are developed.
