Compactifying the image of the Abel map

Publication date 24 September 2010

Abstract: Let

a l p h a_{X}^{u n d e r l i n e d}

be the Abel map of multidegree

u n d e r l i n e d

of a singular curve

X

of genus

g

. We describe the closure of

m I m a l p h a_{X}^{u n d e r l i n e d}

inside Caporaso's compactified Jacobian

for irreducible curves, curves of compact type and binary curves.
