Abelian varieties

Equations defining abelian varieties

In mathematics, the concept of abelian variety is the higher-dimensional generalization of the elliptic curve. The equations defining abelian varieties are a topic of study because every abelian variety is a projective variety. In dimension d ≥ 2, however, it is no longer as straightforward to discuss such equations. There is a large classical literature on this question, which in a reformulation is, for complex algebraic geometry, a question of describing relations between theta functions. The modern geometric treatment now refers to some basic papers of David Mumford, from 1966 to 1967, which reformulated that theory in terms from abstract algebraic geometry valid over general fields.

Abel formula

This is one of my all-time favorite differential equation videos!!! :D Here I'm actually using the Wronskian to actually find a nontrivial solution to a second-order differential equation. This is amazing because it brings the concept of the Wronskian back to life! And as they say, you won

Claire Voisin: Gonality and zero-cycles of abelian varieties

Abstract: The gonality of a variety is defined as the minimal gonality of curve sitting in the variety. We prove that the gonality of a very general abelian variety of dimension g goes to infinity with g. We use for this a (straightforward) generalization of a method due to Pirola that we

David Masser: Avoiding Jacobians

Abstract: It is classical that, for example, there is a simple abelian variety of dimension 4 which is not the jacobian of any curve of genus 4, and it is not hard to see that there is one defined over the field of all algebraic numbers \overline{\bf Q}. In 2012 Chai and Oort asked if ther
