A Riemann Singularities Theorem for Prym Theta Divisors, with Applications
Let (P,Ξ) be the naturally polarized model of the Prym variety associated to the étale double cover π : C̃ → C of smooth connected curves, where Ξ ⊂ P ⊂ Pic2g−2(C̃), and g(C) = g. If L is any “non exceptional” singularity of Ξ, i.e. a point L on Ξ ⊂ Pic2g−2(C̃) such that h0(C̃, L) ≥ 4, but which cannot be expressed as π∗(M)(B) for any line bundle M on C with h0(C,M) ≥ 2 and effective divisor B ≥ 0 ...
متن کاملThe Curve of “prym Canonical” Gauss Divisors on a Prym Theta Divisor
Introduction: A good understanding of the geometry of a theta divisor Θ of a principally polarized abelian variety (A,Θ) requires a knowledge of properties of its canonical linear system, the Gauss linear system |OΘ(Θ)|. A striking feature of the theta divisor Θ(C) of the Jacobian of a curve C is that the dual of the branch divisor of the associated Gauss map γΘ on Θ, is not a hypersurface as e...
متن کاملOn the Singularities of Theta Divisors on Jacobians
The theta divisor Θ of the Jacobian variety of a complex curve X is best viewed as a divisor inside the component Pic(X) consisting of (isomorphism classes of) line bundles of degree g−1. Then a line bundle L belongs to Θ if and only if it has non-zero sections. Riemann proved that the multiplicity of Θ at a point L is equal to dimH(X;L) − 1. Kempf ([Ke]) obtained a geometric proof of Riemann’s...
متن کامل1 1 M ay 2 00 4 Singularities of the Prym Theta Divisor
For the Jacobian of a curve, the Riemann singularity theorem gives a geometric interpretation of the singularities of the theta divisor in terms of special linear series on the curve. This paper proves an analogous theorem for Prym varieties. Applications of this theorem to cubic threefolds, and Prym varieties of dimension five, are also considered.
