We present numerical conditions for the existence of natural degree-2 Abel maps for any given nodal curve. Cocoa scripst were written and have so far verified the validity of the conditions for numerous curves.
In this paper we resolve the degree-2 Abel map for nodal curves. Our results are based on a previous work of the authors reducing the problem of the resolution of the Abel map to a combinatorial problem via tropical geometry. As an…
We consider Abel maps for regular smoothing of nodal curves with values in the Esteves compactified Jacobian. In general, these maps are just rational, and an interesting question is to find an explicit resolution. We translate this problem…
We construct a resolution of the degree-2 Abel-Jacobi map for a regular smoothing of a nodal curve.
Recently, the first Abel map for a stable curve of genus g>1 has been constructed. Fix an integer d>0 and let C be a stable curve of compact type of genus g>1. We construct two d-th Abel maps for C, having different targets, and we compare…
Let $f\col\C\ra B$ be a regular local smoothing of a nodal curve. In this paper, we find a modular description of the Abel--N\'eron map having values in Esteves's fine compactified Jacobian and extending the degree-2 Abel--Jacobi map of the…
Let $C$ be a nodal curve and $L$ be an invertible sheaf on $C$. Let $\alpha_{L}:C\dashrightarrow J_{C}$ be the degree-$1$ rational Abel map, which takes a smooth point $Q\in C$ to $\left[ m_{Q}\otimes L\right] $ in the Jacobian of $C$. In…
We construct Abel maps for a stable curve $X$. Namely, for each one-parameter deformation of $X$ with regular total space, and every integer $d>0$, we construct by specialization a map $\alpha^d_X$ from the smooth locus of $X^d$ to the…
We sharpen the two main tools used to treat the compactified Jacobian of a singular curve: Abel maps and presentation schemes. First we prove a smoothness theorem for bigraded Abel maps. Second we study the two complementary filtrations…
We give a combinatorial characterization of nodal curves admitting a natural d-th Abel map to their Picard scheme, for any positive integer d. "Natural" here means compatible with and independent of specialization.
Given a minimal surface equipped with a generically finite map to an Abelian variety, we give an optimal bound on the canonical degree of a rational or an elliptic curve. As a corollary, we obtain the finiteness of rational and elliptic…
We construct the Abel-Jacobi map for Mumford curves over any complete non-archimedean field, using multiplicative integrals and in the setting of Berkovich analytic geometry. Along the way, we proof some results concerning graphs and…
We explore the relationship between limit linear series and fibers of Abel maps in the case of curves with two smooth components glued at a single node. To an r-dimensional limit linear series satisfying a certain exactness property (weaker…
In a previous work of the authors, a result to algorithmically compute the topology types of the level curves of an algebraic surface, is given. From this result, here we derive applications based on level curves to determine some…
We study the analytic and topological invariants associated with complex normal surface singularities. Our goal is to provide topological formulae for several discrete analytic invariants whenever the analytic structure is generic (with…
In this paper we investigate Abel maps on normal surface singularities described in \cite{NNI}. We investigate the affine version of the class of the images of Abel maps on normal surface singularities. More precisely we consider the…
We show how the Abel-Jacobi map provides all the principal properties of an ample family of integrable mechanical systems associated to hyperelliptic curves. We prove that derivative of the Abel-Jacobi map is just the St\"{a}ckel matrix,…
In this note we discuss a class of hyperelliptic curves introduced by Abel in a 1826 paper. After some indications of the context in which he introduced them and a description of his main result we give some results on the moduli space of…
We investigate the "natural" locus of definition of Abel-Jacobi maps. In particular, we show that, for a proper, geometrically reduced curve C -- not necessarily smooth -- the Abel-Jacobi map from the smooth locus C^{sm} into the Jacobian…
We develop a general framework for Abel maps associated with a family $X/S$ of integral curves using derived algebraic geometry. For compactified Picard schemes, our approach yields relative quasi-smooth derived enhancements of the Quot…
