P-adic Integration on Bad Reduction Hyperelliptic Curves

In this paper, we introduce an algorithm for computing p-adic integrals on bad reduction hyperelliptic curves. For bad reduction curves, there are two notions of p-adic integration: Berkovich-Coleman integrals, which can be performed locally, and abelian integrals with desirable number-theoretic properties. By covering a bad reduction hyperelliptic curve with basic wide-open sets, we reduce the computation of Berkovich-Coleman integrals to the known algorithms on good reduction hyperelliptic curves. These are due to Balakrishnan, Bradshaw, and Kedlaya and to Balakrishnan and Besser for regular and meromorphic 1-forms, respectively. We then employ tropical geometric techniques due to the 1st-named author with Rabinoff and Zureick-Brown to convert the Berkovich-Coleman integrals into abelian integrals. We provide examples of our algorithm, verifying that certain abelian integrals between torsion points vanish.
