Prym Varieties and Integrable Systems

چکیده
A new relation between Prym varieties of arbitrary morphisms of algebraic curves and integrable systems is discovered. The action of maximal commutative subalgebras of the formal loop algebra of GLn defined on certain infinite-dimensional Grassmannians is studied. It is proved that every finite-dimensional orbit of the action of traceless elements of these commutative Lie algebras is isomorphic to the Prym variety associated with a morphism of algebraic curves. Conversely, it is shown that every Prym variety can be realized as a finite-dimensional orbit of the action of traceless diagonal elements of the formal loop algebra, which defines the multicomponent KP system.

Hyperelliptic Prym Varieties and Integrable Systems
We introduce two algebraic completely integrable analogues of the Mumford systems which we call hyperelliptic Prym systems, because every hyperelliptic Prym variety appears as a fiber of their momentum map. As an application we show that the general fiber of the momentum map of the periodic Volterra lattice ȧi = ai(ai−1 − ai+1), i = 1, . . . , n, an+1 = a1, is an affine part of a hyperelliptic ...
متن کاملAlgebraic description of Jacobians isogeneous to certain Prym varieties with polarization (1,2)∗
For a class of non-hyperelliptic genus 3 curves C which are 2-fold coverings of elliptic curves E, we give an explicit algebraic description of all birationally nonequivalent genus 2 curves whose Jacobians are degree 2 isogeneous to the Prym varieties associated to such coverings. Our description is based on previous studies of Prym varieties with polarization (1,2) in connection with separatio...
متن کاملDimensions of Prym Varieties
Given a tame Galois branched cover of curves π : X → Y with any finite Galois group G whose representations are rational, we compute the dimension of the (generalized) Prym variety Prymρ(X) corresponding to any irreducible representation ρ of G. This formula can be applied to the study of algebraic integrable systems using Lax pairs, in particular systems associated with Seiberg-Witten theory. ...
متن کاملMAXIMAL PRYM VARIETY AND MAXIMAL MORPHISM
We investigated maximal Prym varieties on finite fields by attaining their upper bounds on the number of rational points. This concept gave us a motivation for defining a generalized definition of maximal curves i.e. maximal morphisms. By MAGMA, we give some non-trivial examples of maximal morphisms that results in non-trivial examples of maximal Prym varieties.
متن کاملA Lie Theoretic Galois Theory for the Spectral Curves of an Integrable System. Ii
In the study of integrable systems of ODE’s arising from a Lax pair with a parameter, the constants of the motion occur as spectral curves. Many of these systems are algebraically completely integrable in that they linearize on the Jacobian of a spectral curve. In an earlier paper the authors gave a classification of the spectral curves in terms of the Weyl group and arranged the spectral curve...
