Describing the compactified Jacobian of a nodal curve
$\DeclareMathOperator{\Pic}{Pic}$Let $C$ be an integral projective curve over $\mathbb C$, which is smooth except for a single node $x\in C$. Let $M$ be the moduli space of stable torsion-free sheaves ...

Complete curves in $\mathcal{M}_g$ all of whose Jacobians have trivial endomorpism ring
I'm trying to construct complete smooth curves $C$ in $\overline{M}_g$ such that for all points $S \in C \cap \mathcal{M}_g$, its Jacobian $\text{Jac}(S)$ satisfies $\text{End}(\text{Jac}(S)) = \...

Compactified Jacobian of a rational curve whose normalization is a set-theoretic bijection
Suppose $C$ is a (singular) rational curve whose normalization $p: \mathbb P^1 \to C$ is a set-theoretic bijection.
Can one understand how the compactified Jacobian of $C$ looks like?
For example, the ...

The compactified Jacobian is birational to a $\mathbb{P}^1$-fibration over the Jacobian of normalization
Let $Y$ be an integral curve whose only singularity is one simple node at a point $y$, and
$\pi:X\rightarrow Y$ be the normalization with $\pi^{-1}(y)=\{x,z\}$. $J(X)$ is the Jacobian of $X$, and $\...

Unirationality of universal Jacobian over special strata of moduli space of pointed genus 3 curves
Let $M_{3,1}$ be the (coarse, non-compactified) moduli space of genus $3$ curves with a marked point over a field $k$ of characteristic zero. Throwing away the hyperelliptic curves, take the open ...

Confusion in known result about moduli space of vector bundle of rank 2 degree 0 vector bundles over smooth curve of genus 2
Theorem: Let $X$ be a complete, non-singular algebraic curve of genus
$2$. Let $U(2, \Theta)$ be the space of $S$-equivalence classes of semi-stable vector
bundles of rank $2$ and degree $\Theta$. The ...

Is a torsion free sheave of rank one on a reducible curve the pushforward of a line bundle on a normalization?
Let $X$ be a nodal curve, possibly reducible. Then can any torsion free sheaf of rank one on $X$ be expressed as $\pi_*(L)$, where $L$ is a line bundle on a partial normalization of $X$? This looks ...

Which curves cut the Hyperelliptic locus?
Consider the moduli space $\mathcal{A}_{g,n}$ of abelian varieties with some level $n \geq 3$ structure. For simplicity, we just denote it by $\mathcal{A}_{g}$ and drop $n$. Denote the locus of ...

Given a family of curves, when does there exist a fibered surface over Spec Z parametrizing them?
Let $X_p$ be a projective curve over the finite field $\mathbf{F}_p$ (i.e. a projective $\mathbf{F}_p$-scheme pure of dimension 1) for every prime number $p$. Let $X_\mathbf{Q}$ be a projective curve ...

Are Jacobians principally polarized over non-algebraically closed fields?
How does one define the Torelli map $M_g \to A_g$ of moduli stacks? On geometric points a curve maps to its principally polarized Jacobian.
So what I am asking is: if I have a curve $C$ over a non-...
