In this paper we propose a method of solving the Jacobi inversion problem in terms of multiply periodic $\wp$ functions, also called Kleinian $\wp$ functions. This result is based on the recently developed theory of multivariable sigma…
Up to isomorphism over C, every simple principally polarized abelian variety of dimension 3 is the Jacobian of a smooth projective curve of genus 3. Furthermore, this curve is either a hyperelliptic curve or a plane quartic. Given a sextic…
A curve $C$ defined over $\mathbb Q$ is modular of level $N$ if there exists a non-constant morphism from $X_1(N)$ onto $C$ defined over $\mathbb Q$ for some positive integer $N$. We provide a sufficient and necessary condition for the…
We compute the cohomological invariants with coefficients in $\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}$ of the stack $\mathscr{H}_3$ of hyperelliptic curves of genus $3$ over an algebraically closed field.
In this article, we give a reformulation of a result from Howe, Leprevost and Poonen on a three dimensional family of abelian threefolds. We also link their result to a conjecture of Serre on a precise form of Torelli theorem for genus 3…
We give a criterion to distinguish between a genus three Jacobian and its [-1] twist in terms of the product of the 36 even theta nulls. We also express the product of the 36 theta nulls in terms of the discriminant of a genus three curve.…
We exhibit a non-hyperelliptic curve C of genus 3 such that the class of the Ceresa cycle [C]-[-C] in the intermediate Jacobian of JC is torsion.
We gives an explicit genus 3 curve over Q such that the Galois action on the torsion points of its Jacobian is a large as possible. That such curves exist is a consequence of a theorem of D. Zureick-Brown and the author; however, those…
We extend the formulae of classical invariant theory for the Jacobian of a genus one curve of degree $n \le 4$ to curves of arbitrary degree. To do this, we associate to each genus one normal curve of degree $n$, an $n \times n$ alternating…
We explicitly construct the Kummer variety associated to the Jacobian of a hyperelliptic curve of genus 3 that is defined over a field of characteristic not equal to 2 and has a Weierstra{\ss} point defined over the same field. We also…
We study the Hodge structure of elliptic surfaces which are canonically defined from bielliptic curves of genus three. We prove that the period map for the second cohomology has one dimensional fibers, and the period map for the total…
We give parametrisation of curves C of genus 2 with a maximal isotropic (ZZ/3)^2 in J[3], where J is the Jacobian variety of C, and develop the theory required to perform descent via (3,3)-isogeny. We apply this to several examples, where…
A cyclic trigonal curve of genus three is a $\mathbb{Z}_3$ Galois cover of $\mathbb{P}^1$, therefore can be written as a smooth plane curve with equation $y^3 = f(x) =(x - b_1) (x - b_2) (x - b_3) (x - b_4)$. Following Weierstrass for the…
We present three families of pairs of geometrically non-isomorphic curves whose Jacobians are isomorphic to one another as unpolarized abelian varieties. Each family is parametrized by an open subset of P^1. The first family consists of…
We extend the group law of curves of degree three by chords and tangents to the Jacobi variety of plane curves of degree n>4 by replacing points by point groups and lines by algebraic curves. The curves are nonsingular or have simple…
We study the inverse Jacobian problem for the case of Picard curves over $\mathbb{C}$. More precisely, we elaborate on an algorithm that, given a small period matrix $\Omega\in \mathbb{C}^{3\times 3}$ corresponding to a principally…
We apply classical invariant theory of binary forms to explicitly characterize isomorphism classes of hyperelliptic curves of small genus and, conversely, propose algorithms for reconstructing hyperelliptic models from given invariants. We…
In this note, an analogous statement to the Nagell-Lutz theorem does not hold for the Jacobian of a certain curve of genus 2 over $\mathbb{C}(t)$. As a by-product, we give a (2, 3, 6) quasi-torus decomposition for the dual curve of a smooth…
A Richelot isogeny between Jacobian varieties is an isogeny whose kernel is included in the $2$-torsion subgroup of the domain. A Richelot isogeny whose codomain is the product of two or more principally polarized abelian varieties is…
A stream of new theta relations is obtained. They follow from the general Thomae formula, which is a new result giving expressions for theta derivatives (the zero values of the lowest non-vanishing derivatives of theta functions with…
