Abelian varieties are projective algebraic varieties endowed with an Abelian group structure. Over the complex numbers, they can be described as quotients of a vector space by a lattice of full rank. They are analogs in higher dimensions of elliptic curves, and play an important role in algebraic geometry and number theory.

Pullback of line bundles and divisors from $Kum(C)$ to $Jac(C)$

1) is correct, 2) is not. Indeed, if $i(C)=C$, then the map $C \rightarrow C'$ is a double cover, and $f^*{\mathcal O}_Y(C')={\mathcal O}_X(C)$ since in a neighbourhood of a general point of $C$ the …

Will any two linearly equivalent ample divisors on an abelian variety intersect?

Of course not. If $L$ is very ample, $D_1$ and $D_2$ are two hyperplane sections for some embedding in a projective space. Therefore their intersection is at most codimension 2 in $X$, intersection o …
