Embedding abelian varieties into projective spaces of small dimension
Given a (complex) abelian variety $A$ of a fixed dimension $g$, let $d(A)$ be the dimension of the smallest complex projective space it embeds into.
Is $d(A)$ uniform over all abelian varieties of a ...

For a line bundle L on a smooth projective variety X, what is meant by Pic^L(X)
Hi everyone,
Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over a field $k$ and let $L$ be a line bundle on $X$. I'm reading the article Heights for line bundles on arithmetic varieties and there one ...

Characterizing principal polarizations of abelian surfaces
Suppose $X$ is a complex abelian variety of dimension 2. Then I believe the ring of endomorphisms $\mathrm{End}(X)$, tensored with $\mathbb{C}$, is isomorphic to a subalgebra $M_2(\mathbb{C})$ of $2 \...

Type vs degree of a polarized abelian variety
Let $(A,L)$ be a polarized abelian variety. I know that the degree of the polarization is the Euler characteristic of $L$, so that
$d = \chi(L) = \dim H^0(A,L)$
since $L$ is ample.
I've read in a lot ...

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 $L=\mathcal{O}_X(\Theta + D)$, ...

Pulling back a line bundle on the Jacobian to a spin bundle on the curve
I'd like to have an expression for the (or some) line bundle on the Jacobian $J$ of a smooth complex projective curve $C$ with genus $g >1$ which pulls back to a chosen spin bundle (theta ...

Could we construct the Jacobian variety of a smooth curve $C$ with genus $>2$ from its derived category $D(C)$?
Let's consider a smooth curve $C$ over $\mathbb{C}$. We know that the Jacobian variety $Jac(C)$ of $C$ is the moduli space of the degree $0$ line bundles on $C$. $Jac(C)$ is an abelian variety of ...

From a factor of automorphy on an abelian variety to a divisor
Given a complex abelian variety $A = V/\Gamma$ (for $\Gamma$ being a lattice in the complex vector space $V$), one knows how to describe a holomorphic line bundle in terms of factors of automorphy: By ...
