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.

Smooth symmetric divisors in abelian varieties without points of order $2$

Let $X=V/\Lambda$ be a complex abelian variety of dimension $g$, endowed with a polarization $M$ of type $(d_1, \ldots, d_g)$. A divisor $D \in |M|$ is called symmetric if $(-1)_X^*D=D$, namely if it …

Ampleness of the normal bundle to the Albanese image

Let $X$ be a projective surface of general type over $\mathbb{C}$, and assume that $\Omega_X$ is globally generated. Then the Albanese map $a \colon X \to \operatorname{Alb}(X)$ is a local embedding n …

Pull-back of an irreducible ample divisor via an isogeny of abelian varieties

In the (wonderful) book by C. Birkenhake and H. Lange Complex Abelian Varieties we can find the following result, see Corollary 4.3.4 page 77. It is stated in any dimension $g \geq 2$, but let us cons …

Line bundles of characteristic $0$ on abelian varieties

Maybe what I'm asking is well-known to the experts, however I was not able to find a suitable reference. Any pointer to the literature will be appreciated. For the notation and teminology, I refer t …

Surfaces with $q=2$ and generically finite Albanese map

I have a family of surfaces of general type $S$ with $q(S)=2$, and such that the Albanese map $$\alpha \colon S \longrightarrow A:=\mathrm{Alb}(S)$$ is generically finite of degree $n$. By a result of …

Singular curve on an abelian surface

Let $C_2$ be a smooth genus $2$ curve and $J(C_2)$ its Jacobian. It is well known that the blow-up of $J(C_2)$ at the origin $o$ is isomorphic to the second symmetric product $\textrm{Sym}^2(C_2)$, an …

Characters on lattices and isogenies of Abelian varieties

Let $V:=\mathbb{C}^g$ and $\Lambda \subset V$ be a lattice, i.e. a discrete subgroup of rank $2g$. Then $A:=V/ \Lambda$ is a complex torus of dimension $g$. We moreover assume that $A$ is algebraic, h …

Simplicity of a rank 2 vector bundle over a principally polarized abelian surface

Let $A := \textrm{Jac}(C)$ be the Jacobian of a genus $2$ curve $C$, with principal polarization $\Theta$. Studying some branched covers of $A$, I was led to consider some rank $2$ holomorphic vecto …

Rank 2 vector bundle on a product of elliptic curves

Let $E$, $F$ be two complex elliptic curves, and $A=E \times F$. Let us denote by $\pi_E \colon A \to E, \quad \pi_F \colon A \to F$ the natural projections. For all $p \in F$ let us write $E_p$ ins …
