This manuscript consists of two parts. In the first part, we study generalizations of modular curves: triangular modular curves. These curves have played an important role in recent developments in number theory, particularly concerning hypergeometric abelian varieties and approaches to solving generalized Fermat equations. We provide a new result that shows that there are only finitely many Borel-type triangular modular curves of any fixed genus, and we present an algorithm to list all such curves of a given genus.
In the second part of the manuscript, we explore the problem of computing the set of rational points on a smooth, …
