Plane quartics over Q with complex multiplication Ritzenthaler, Christophe

Description

We give examples of smooth plane quartics over $\mathbb{Q}$ with complex multiplication over $\bar{\mathbb{Q}}$ by a maximal order with primitive CM type. We describe the required algorithms as we go, these involve the reduction of period matrices, the fast computation of Dixmier-Ohno invariants, and reconstruction from these invariants. Finally, we discuss some of the reduction properties of the curves that we obtain.
