Aug 20, 2013 at 1:49 comment added roy smith I am confused. Verra (p.434, lines 27-28) seems to say the map from the dual P^3 to the fiber of the Prym map is constant on orbits of the action of the group G of points of order 2 of the abelian surface on the system |2.(Theta)|, hence the map to M(3) would seem never to be of degree one. Did I misunderstand this? The images under the finite map R(3)-->M(3) however would always seem to be three dimensional.
Aug 18, 2013 at 19:38 comment added Serge Lvovski Sorry, do you really mean «generically injective»? If a quartic has automorphisms, then the mapping in question from $(\mathbb P^3)^*$ to $M_3$ cannot be generically injective. Did you actually mean «has 3-dimensional image»?
Aug 18, 2013 at 19:30 comment added Serge Lvovski Thank you, interesting indeed. Is this problem open even for the case of smooth quartics?
