Cycle classes on abelian varieties and the geometry of the Abel-Jacobi map

Algebraic Geometry 2023-07-07 v4

Abstract

We discuss two properties of an abelian variety, namely, being a direct summand in a product of Jacobians and the weaker property of being "split". We relate the first property to the integral Hodge conjecture for curve classes on abelian varieties. We also relate both properties to the existence problem for universal zero-cycles on Brauer-Severi varieties over abelian varieties. A similar relation is established for the existence problem of a universal codimension 2 cycle on a cubic threefold.
