Abstract

We define and investigate the tropical Prym varieties associated to unramified Galois cyclic covers of tropical curves (or equivalently metric graphs) $\tildeΓ\to Γ$. Our approach here is to study the tropical Prym varieties using group actions on tropical abelian varieties induced by the cyclic Galois group of the cover of tropical curves. We also define and conider the Abel-Prym map for tropical cyclic covers extending that for double covers. As a special case we consider free $\Z_3$-covers of tropical curves and their associated tropical Prym variety and compute its volume generalizing the case of double covers.

G3-Criteria and Applications

The G3-property of a subvariety was introduced by Hironaka-Matsumura, and plays an important role for deducing connectedness and extension results. Unfortunately, it's a rather elusive notion, which is not always easy to establish. Most of the existing work is concentrated on subvarieties of homogeneous varieties. The first goal of this article is to show that mobility assumptions on the subvariety, considered in works of Badescu, Chow, Debarre, Voisin, yield a certain partial positivity property, slightly stronger than G3, previously introduced by the author. Second, we apply the result to prove that, in numerous situations, the splitting of the normal bundle of a smooth two-codimensional subvariety implies that it is a complete intersection.

Nodal degeneration of chiral algebras I: Global structure and gluing formula

We define a natural extension of a universal factorization algebra $\mathcal{A}$ to families of stable punctured curves, by integrating over all semistable modifications. We prove that the resulting sheaf of factorization homology satisfies a natural gluing formula, by tensoring over a certain derived associative algebra $\mathfrak{Z}_{\mathcal{A}}^0$, generalizing the Verlinde formula for gluing of conformal blocks.
