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 prove autoduality for curves of compact type and, more generally, treelike curves with planar singularities. More precisely, we produce an isomorphism between the generalized Jacobian of such a curve and the connected component of the…

We compare flat cohomology with crystalline syntomic complexes in two cases: 1) $p$-divisible groups over a separated $\mathbb F_p$-scheme with local finite $p$-bases, 2) semi-abelian schemes over a separated irreducible smooth curve.

We construct a resolution of the degree-2 Abel-Jacobi map for a regular smoothing of a nodal curve.

Any counterexample to the two-dimensional Jacobian Conjecture gives a rational map from one projective plane to another. We use some ideas of the Minimal Model Program to study the combinatorial structure of a rational surface, that is…

We examine \'etale covers of genus two curves that occur in the linear system of a polarizing line bundle of type $(1,d)$ on a complex abelian surface. We give results counting fixed points of involutions on such curves as well as…

Let $C$ be a nonsingular complex projective curve, and $\mathcal{L}$ e a line bundle of degree 1 on $C$. Let $\mathcal{M}_{\alpha} := \mathcal{M}(r,\mathcal{L},\alpha)$ denote the moduli space of $S$-equivalence classes of Parabolic stable…

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 investigate the connection between polylogarithms on curves and abelian schemes. The main result shows that the polylogarithm on the abelian scheme can be obtained as the push-forward of the polylogarithm on a suitable…

We study singular curves from analytic point of view. We give completely analytic proofs for the Serre duality and a generalized Abel's theorem. We also reconsider Picard varieties, Albanese varieties and generalized Jacobi varieties of…

Let $C$ be a smooth non rational projective curve over the complex field $\mathbb{C}$. If $A$ is an abelian subvariety of the Jacobian $J(C)$, we consider the Abel-Prym map $\varphi_A : C \rightarrow A$ defined as the composition of the…

We give a classification of all principally polarized abelian surfaces that admit an $(l,l)$-isogeny to themselves, and show how to compute all the abelian surfaces that occur. We make the classification explicit in the simplest case $l=2$.…

We begin with a comprehensive discussion of the punctual Hilbert scheme of the regular two-dimensional local ring in terms of the Gr\"obner cells. These schemes are the most degenerate fibers of the Grothendieck-Deligne norm map (the…

A curve, that is, a connected, reduced, projective scheme of dimension 1 over an algebraically closed field, admits two types of compactifications of its (generalized) Jacobian: the moduli schemes of P-quasistable torsion-free, rank-1…

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.

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…

The difference $[L_1]-[L_2]$ of a pair of skew lines on a cubic threefold defines a vanishing cycle on the cubic surface as the hyperplane section spanned by the two lines. By deforming the hyperplane, the flat translation of such vanishing…

Over the moduli space of smooth curves, the double ramification cycle can be defined by pulling back the unit section of the universal jacobian along the Abel-Jacobi map. This breaks down over the boundary since the Abel-Jacobi map fails to…

A simply laced Dynkin diagram gives rise to a family of curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ and a coregular representation, using deformations of simple singularities and Vinberg theory respectively. Thorne has conjectured and partially proven a…

Let $S$ be a complex projective surface. Lefschetz originally proved Lefschetz $(1, 1)$--Theorem by studying a Lefschetz pencil of hyperplane sections of $S$ and the Abel--Jacobi mapping. In this paper, we attack Lefschetz $(1, 1)$--Theorem…
