Polarizations of Prym varieties for Weyl groups via abelianization

Herbert LangeChristian Pauly — 2009

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Let π : Z X be a Galois covering of smooth projective curves with Galois group the Weyl group of a simple and simply connected Lie group G . For any dominant weight λ consider the curve Y = Z / Stab ( λ ) . The Kanev correspondence defines an abelian subvariety P λ of the Jacobian of Y . We compute the type of the polarization of the restriction of the canonical principal polarization of Jac ( Y ) to P λ in some cases. In particular, in the case of the group E 8 we obtain families of Prym-Tyurin varieties. The main idea is the use of...

On Clifford's theorem for rank-3 bundles.

Herbert LangePeter E. Newstead — 2006

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

In this paper we obtain bounds on h(E) where E is a semistable bundle of rank 3 over a smooth irreducible projective curve X of genus g ≥ 2 defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. These bounds are expressed in terms of the degrees of stability s(E), s(E). We show also that in some cases the bounds are best possible. These results extend recent work of J. Cilleruelo and I. Sols for bundles of rank 2.
