In mathematics, a dual abelian variety can be defined from an abelian variety A, defined over a field K.
To an abelian variety A over a field k, one associates a dual abelian variety Av (over the same field), which is the solution to the following moduli problem. A family of degree 0 line bundles parametrized by a k-variety T is defined to be a line bundle L on
A×T such that
for all , the restriction of L to A×{t} is a degree 0 line bundle,
the restriction of L to {0}×T is a trivial line bundle (here 0 is the identity of A).
Then there is a variety Av and a line bundle ,, called the Poincaré bundle, which is a family of degree 0 line bundles parametrized by Av in the sense of the above definition. Moreover, this family is universal, that is, to any family L parametrized by T is associated a unique morphism f: T → Av so that L is isomorphic to the pullback of P along the morphism 1A×f: A×T → A×Av. Applying this to the case when T is a point, we see that the points of Av correspond to line bundles of degree 0 on A, so there is a natural group operation on Av given by tensor product of line bundles, which makes it into an abelian variety.
In the language of representable functors one can state the above result as follows. The contravariant functor, which associates to each k-variety T the set of families of degree 0 line bundles parametrised by T and to each k-morphism f: T → T the mapping induced by the pullback with f, is representable. The universal element representing this functor is the pair (Av, P).
This association is a duality in the sense that there is a natural isomorphism between the double dual Avv and A (defined via the Poincaré bundle) and that it is contravariant functorial, i.e. it associates to all morphisms f: A → B dual morphisms fv: Bv → Av in a compatible way. The n-torsion of an abelian variety and the n-torsion of its dual are dual to each other when n is coprime to the characteristic of the base. In general - for all n - the n-torsion group schemes of dual abelian varieties are Cartier duals of each other.

En géométrie algébrique, la jacobienne d'une courbe est une variété algébrique (en fait une variété abélienne) qui paramètrise les diviseurs de degré 0 sur . C'est un objet fondamental pour l'étude des courbes, et c'est aussi un exemple de variété abélienne qui sert de variété test. On fixe une courbe algébrique projective lisse de genre au moins 1 sur un corps . Dans une première approximation, on peut dire que sa jacobienne est une variété algébrique dont les points correspondent aux diviseurs de degré 0 sur modulo équivalence rationnelle.
En mathématiques, et en particulier, en géométrie algébrique et géométrie complexe, une variété abélienne A est une variété algébrique projective qui est un groupe algébrique. La condition de est l'équivalent de la compacité pour les variétés différentielles ou analytiques, et donne une certaine rigidité à la structure. C'est un objet central en géométrie arithmétique. Une variété abélienne sur un corps k est un groupe algébrique A sur k, dont la variété algébrique sous-jacente est projective, connexe et géométriquement réduite.
Abelian varieties are fascinating objects, combining the fields of geometry and arithmetic. While the interest in abelian varieties has long time been of purely theoretic nature, they saw their first real-world application in cryptography in the mid 1980's ...

Given two elliptic curves and the degree of an isogeny between them, finding the isogeny is believed to be a difficult problem—upon which rests the security of nearly any isogeny-based scheme. If, however, to the data above we add information about the beh ...

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0. We give a birational characterization of ordinary abelian varieties over k: a smooth projective variety X is birational to an ordinary abelian variety if and only if kappa(S)(X) = 0 and b(1)(X ...
