An Isomorphism Between Moduli Spaces of Abelian Varieties

Algebraic Geometry 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

In a previous paper we showed that for every polarization on an abelian variety there is a dual polarization on the dual abelian variety. In this note we extend this notion of duality to families of polarized abelian varieties. As a main consequence we obtain an involution on the set of moduli spaces of polarized abelian varieties of dimension gg. In particular, the moduli spaces A(d1,...,dg)\mathcal A_{(d_1,...,d_g)} and A(d1,d1dgdg1,...,d1dgd2,dg)\mathcal A_{(d_1,\frac{d_1d_g}{d_{g-1}},...,\frac{d_1d_g}{d_2},d_g)} are canonically isomorphic.
