p-adic periods of genus two Mumford-Schottky curves.
Let be a Galois covering of smooth projective curves with Galois group the Weyl group of a simple and simply connected Lie group . For any dominant weight consider the curve . The Kanev correspondence defines an abelian subvariety of the Jacobian of . We compute the type of the polarization of the restriction of the canonical principal polarization of to in some cases. In particular, in the case of the group we obtain families of Prym-Tyurin varieties. The main idea is the use of...
