A constructive proof of the theorem of the cube
Do you know a constructive proof of the theorem of the cube ? More precisely, let $X$, $Y$, $Z$ be projective varieties (e.g., over an algebraically closed field $k$) with points $x$, $y$, $z$ ...

Tri-homogenous polynomials of tridegree $(3,3,3)$ to add three points on an elliptic curve
Consider an elliptic curve $E \subset \mathbb{P}^2$ with the zero point $\mathcal{O}$. There are classical articles about complete systems of addition laws on $E$ (see
Lange and Ruppert - Complete ...

Abelian varieties corresponding to Hodge substructures
In an exercise of Voisin book, says:
Let $j:C\rightarrow S$ the inclusion of a smooth curve on a smooth connected projective surface. Set
$H=ker(j_*:H^1(C,\mathbb{Z})\rightarrow H^3(S,\mathbb{Z}))$.

How to determine the type of a divisor on a product of elliptic curves?
I already asked this on Math.SE, but didn't receive an answer yet.
Say $E_1, \dotsc, E_n$ are elliptic curves (everything over $\mathbb C$), and $D \subset E_1 \times \dotsc \times E_n$ is an ...

Polarization of an abelian variety made by the sum of two divisors
Let $X$ be an abelian variety of dimension $n$, and let $L$ be a polarization, that is, an ample line bundle on $X$, with $\chi(L)=3$.
In my specific case, I have that $L=\mathcal{O}_X(\Theta + D)$, ...

Reference for torsion-freeness of the group of correspondences on a smooth projective variety
In Beauville's "Variétés de Prym et jacobiennes intermédiaires", Proposition 3.5, it is claimed that $\textrm{Corr}(T)$ is torsion-free for a smooth projective variety $T$. Here $$\textrm{...

On morphisms to projective space arising from a linear system
Context: This question arose as I was reading the proof of Application 6.1 in Mumford's Abelian Varieties. However, I have extracted all of the relevant information below so this question should ...

Intersection of translate of divisors on abelian variety
Setup. Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and let $A/K$ be a simple abelian variety of dimension $n$. Let $\{ x_1,x_2,\dots,x_{m^{2n}}\}$ denote the $m$-torsion points of ...

Uniqueness of theta divisor
Let $A$ be an abelian variety (at least over $\mathbb{C}$). Suppose we have two theta divisors $\Theta_1$ and $\Theta_2$ on $A$, which give two principal polarizations on $A$.
In general, are those ...

Polarization of the Prym variety
Let $X\rightarrow Y$ a ramifield double cover of curves, $J_X, J_Y$ their jacobians, $P\subset J_X$ the Prym variety, for any line bundle $L$ on $X$ of degree $g_X-1$, denote by $\Theta_L$ the ...

Divisors on product abelian fourfolds
Given a principally polarized abelian surface $A$ with CM of signature $(1,1)$ by an imaginary quadratic number field $K$, I am interested in studying the Néron-Severi group $\text{NS}(A\times A)$. ...

Nef divisors on abelian varieties are pullbacks of ample ones
It is well known that for any polarization ( that is, ample line bundle) $L$ on an abelian variety $A$, there is an isogeny $\phi\colon A \to B$ to another abelian variety with a principal ...
