Abstract

The aims of the present paper can be described as follows: a) In [2] Beauville showed that if some endomorphism u a Jacobian J ( C ) has connected kernel, the principal polarization on J ( C ) induces a multiple of the principal polarization on the image of u . We reformulate and complete this theorem proving "constructively" the following: Theorem. Let Z J ( C ) be an abelian subvariety and Y its complementary variety. Z is a Prym-Tyurin variety with respect to J ( C ) if and only if the following sequence 0 Y J ( C ) Z 0 is exact. b) In [5] Izadi set the question whether every p.p.a.v. is a Prym-Tyurin variety for a symmetric fixed point free correspondence. In this work a contribution to a possible negative answer to this question is provided by building a classical Prym-Tyurin variety explicitly, but this variety can never be defined through a fixed point free correspondence.
