The infinitesimal Torelli problem

Abstract

Let g2g \geq 2 and let the Torelli map denote the map sending a genus gg curve to its principally polarized Jacobian. We verify the well known fact that the map induced on tangent spaces by the Torelli map is dual to the multiplication map Sym2H0(C,ωC)H0(C,ωC2)\mathrm{Sym}^2 H^0(C, \omega_C) \rightarrow H^0(C, \omega_C^{\otimes 2}).
