Abstract

For the case of algebraic curves - compact Riemann surfaces - it is shown that de Rham cohomology group HdR1(X,C)H^{1}_{\mathrm{dR}}(X,\mathbb{C}) of a genus gg Riemann surface XX has a natural structure of a symplectic vector space. Every choice of a non-special effective divisor DD of degree gg on XX defines a symplectic basis of HdR1(X,C)H^{1}_{\mathrm{dR}}(X,\mathbb{C}), consisting of holomorphic differentials and differentials of the second kind with poles on DD. This result, the algebraic de Rham theorem, is used to describe the tangent space to Picard and Jacobian varieties of XX in terms of differentials of the second kind, and to define a natural vector fields on the Jacobian of XX that move points of the divisor DD. In terms of the Lax formalism on algebraic curves, these vector fields correspond to the Dubrovin equations in the theory of integrable systems, and the Baker-Akhierzer function is naturally obtained by the integration along the integral curves.
