Torelli problem (14C34) Families, moduli of curves (algebraic) (14H10) Theta functions and curves; Schottky problem (14H42) Vector bundles on curves and their moduli (14H60) Theta functions and abelian varieties (14K25)

Abstract: We show that a general canonical curve is uniquely determined by the finite set of hyperplanes cutting theta-characteristics on it. Geometrical and combinatorial properties of the moduli space of stable spin curves are proved, which play an essential role.
