It is well known that the Prym variety of an \'etale cyclic covering of a hyperelliptic curve is isogenous to the product of two Jacobians. Moreover, if the degree of the covering is odd or congruent to 2 mod 4, then the canonical isogeny…

We show that for any elliptic curve (with j invariant not 0 or 1728) over any field of characteristic different from 2 and 3, there exists an hyperelliptic curve H of genus 5 with two independent maps to the given elliptic curve. We also…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a smooth, projective, genus $g\geq 2$ curve, defined over $\mathbb{C}$. Then $\mathcal{C}$ has \emph{many automorphisms} if its corresponding moduli point $p \in \mathcal{M}_g$ has a neighborhood $U$ in the complex…

We study an explicit $(2g-1)$-dimensional family of Jacobian varieties of dimension $\frac{d-1}2(g-1)$, arising from quotient curves of unramified cyclic coverings of prime degree $d$ of hyperelliptic curves of genus $g\ge 2$. By using a…

We give the explicit equations for a P^3 x P^3 embedding of the Jacobian of a curve of genus 2, which gives a natural analog for abelian surfaces of the Edwards curve model of elliptic curves. This gives a much more succinct description of…

A genus 2 curve $C$ has an elliptic subcover if there exists a degree $n$ maximal covering $\psi: C \to E$ to an elliptic curve $E$. Degree $n$ elliptic subcovers occur in pairs $(E, E')$. The Jacobian $J_C$ of $C$ is isogenous of degree…

We study smooth curves on abelian surfaces, especially for genus 4, when the complementary subvariety in the Jacobian is also a surface. We show that up to translation there is exactly one genus 4 hyperelliptic curve on a general (1,…
