AbstractWe consider the Prym map from the space of double coverings of a curve of genus gwithrbranch points to the moduli space of abelian varieties. We prove that 𝒫:ℛg,r→𝒜δg−1+r/2is generically injective ifWe also show that a very general Prym variety of dimension at least 4 is not isogenous to a Jacobian.

According to [H. Lange and A. Ortega, Prym varieties of triple coverings, Int. Math. Res. Notices2011(22) (2011) 5045–5075], the Prym variety of any non-cyclic étale triple cover f : Y → X of a smooth curve X of genus 2 is a Jacobian variety of dimension 2. This gives a map from the moduli space of such covers to the moduli space of Jacobian varieties of dimension 2. We extend this map to a proper map Pr of a moduli space [Formula: see text] of admissible S3-covers of genus 7 to the moduli space [Formula: see text] of principally polarized abelian surfaces. The main result is that [Formula: see text] is finite surjective of degree 10.

AbstractIn this paper, using a generalization of the notion of Prym variety for covers of projective varieties, we prove a structure theorem for the Mordell–Weil group of abelian varieties over function fields that are twists of abelian varieties by Galois covers of smooth projective varieties. In particular, the results we obtain contribute to the construction of Jacobians of high rank.

AbstractWe study Shimura (special) subvarieties in the moduli space $$A_{p,D}$$ A p , D of complex abelian varieties of dimension p and polarization type D. These subvarieties arise from families of covers compatible with a fixed group action on the base curve such that the quotient of the base curve by the group is isomorphic to $${{\mathbb {P}}}^1$$ P 1 . We give a criterion for the image of these families under the Prym map to be a special subvariety and, using computer algebra, obtain 210 Shimura subvarieties contained in the Prym locus.

AbstractMotivated by the theory of complex multiplication of abelian varieties, in this paper we study the conformality classes of flat tori in $${\mathbb {R}}^{n}$$ R n and investigate criteria to determine whether a n-dimensional flat torus has non trivial (i.e. bigger than $${\mathbb {Z}}^{*}={\mathbb {Z}}{\setminus }\{0\}$$ Z ∗ = Z \ { 0 } ) semigroup of conformal endomorphisms (the analogs of isogenies for abelian varieties). We then exhibit several geometric constructions of tori with this property and study the class of conformally equivalent lattices in order to describe the moduli space of the corresponding tori.

AbstractLet Σ be a closed surface of genus ≥ 1, G a compact Lie group, not necessarily connected with Lie algebra g, ξ,: P → Σ a principal G-bundle, and suppose Σ equipped with a Riemannian metric and g with an invariant scalar product so that the Yang—Mills equations on ξ are defined. Further, letbe the universal central extension of the fundamental group π of Σ and ΓR the group obtained from Γ when its centre Z is extended to the additive group R of the reals. We show that there are bijective correspondences between various spaces of classes of Yang—Mills connections on ξ and spaces of representations of Γ and ΓR (as appropriate) in G. In particular, we show that the holonomy establishes a homeomorphism between the moduli space N(ξ) of central Yang–Mills connections on ξ and the space Repξ(Γ, G) of representations of Γ in G determined by ξ. Our results rely on a detailed study of the holonomy of a central Yang–Mills connection and extend corresponding ones of Atiyah and Bott for the case where G is connected.
