We consider the question of when a Jacobian of a curve of genus $2g$ admits a $(2,2)$-isogeny to two polarized dimension $g$ abelian varieties. We find that one of them must be a Jacobian itself and, if the associated curve is…

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 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 give a method for finding rational equations of genus 2 curves whose jacobians are abelian varieties $A_f$ attached by Shimura to normalized newforms $f \in S_2( \Gamma_0(N))$. We present all the curves corresponding to principally…

We consider the problem of efficient computation in the Jacobian of a hyperelliptic curve of genus 3 defined over a field whose characteristic is not 2. For curves with a rational Weierstrass point, fast explicit formulas are well known and…

We construct L$_{\infty}$ algebras for general `initial data' given by a vector space equipped with an antisymmetric bracket not necessarily satisfying the Jacobi identity. We prove that any such bracket can be extended to a 2-term…

We give real Jacobian elliptic function parametrizations for a genuinely asymmetric biquadratic curve where the variables and parameters are real.

We study the problem of efficiently constructing a curve C of genus 2 over a finite field F for which either the curve C itself or its Jacobian has a prescribed number N of F-rational points. In the case of the Jacobian, we show that any…

In this paper we classify the singular curves whose theta divisors in their generalized Jacobians are algebraic, meaning that they are cut out by polynomial analogs of theta functions. We also determine the degree of an algebraic theta…

We give two characterizations of Jacobians of curves with involution having fixed points in the framework of two particular cases of Welter's trisecant conjecture. The geometric form of each of these characterizations is the statement that…

We show that the Euler number of the compactified Jacobian of a rational curve $C$ with locally planar singularities is equal to the multiplicity of the $\delta$-constant stratum in the base of a semi-universal deformation of $C$. In…

An important invariant of a polynomial $f$ is its Jacobian algebra defined by its partial derivatives. Let $f$ be invariant with respect to the action of a finite group of diagonal symmetries $G$. We axiomatically define an orbifold…

In Dokchitser (2007) it is shown that given an elliptic curve $E$ defined over a number field $K$ then there are infinitely many degree 3 extensions $L/K$ for which the rank of $E(L)$ is larger than $E(K)$. In the present paper we show that…

We show that a genus $2$ curve over a number field whose jacobian has complex multiplication will usually have stable bad reduction at some prime. We prove this by computing the Faltings height of the jacobian in two different ways. First,…

Changes of variables giving the dual model are constructed explicitly for sigma-models without isotropy. In particular, the jacobian is calculated to give the known results. The global aspects of the abelian case as well as some of those of…

Let $\C$ be a genus 2 curve defined over $k$, $char (k) =0$. If $\C$ has a $(3,3)$-split Jacobian then we show that the automorphism group $Aut(\C)$ is isomorphic to one of the following: $\bZ_2, V_4, D_8$, or $D_{12}$. There are exactly…

For a sequence $\mathbf w = \{w_j\}_{j = 2}^\infty$ of positive real numbers, consider the positive semi-definite kernel $\kappa_{\mathbf w}(s, u) = \sum_{j = 2}^\infty w_j j^{-s - \overline{u}}$ defined on some right-half plane $\mathbb…

Let $\pi\colon Y \to X$ be a branched cover of complex algebraic curves of respective genera $g(Y)=2$ and $g(X)=1$. The Jacobian of $Y$ is isogenous to the product of two elliptic curves: $\operatorname{Jac} Y \sim \operatorname{Jac} X…

We define Jacobi forms with complex multiplication. Analogous to modular forms with complex multiplication, they are constructed from Hecke characters of the associated imaginary quadratic field. From this construction we obtain a Jacobi…

The Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture has been numerically verified for the Jacobians of 32 modular hyperelliptic curves of genus 2 by Flynn, Lepr\'evost, Schaefer, Stein, Stoll and Wetherell, using modular methods. In the calculation of…
