Abstract

The level moduli space Ag4,8A_g^{4,8} is mapped to the projective space by means of gradients of odd Theta functions, such a map turning out no to be injective in the genus 2 case. In this work a congruence subgroup Γ\Gamma is located between Γ2(4,8)\Gamma_2(4,8) and Γ2(2,4)\Gamma_2(2,4) in such a way the map factors on the related level moduli space AΓA_{\Gamma}, the new map being injective on AΓA_{\Gamma}. Satake's compactification ProjA(Γ)\text{Proj}A(\Gamma) and the desingularization ProjS(Γ)\text{Proj}S(\Gamma) are also due to be investigated, since the map does not extend to the boundary of the compactification; to aim at this, an algebraic description is provided, by proving a structure theorem both for the ring of modular forms A(Γ)A(\Gamma) and the ideal of cusp forms S(Γ)S(\Gamma)
