A birational Torelli theorem with a Brauer class

Publication date: 12 September 2019

Abstract: Let

e x t M_{C} (2, m a t h c a l O_{C}) c o n g m a t h b b P^{3}

denote the coarse moduli space of semistable vector bundles of rank

2

with trivial determinant over a smooth projective curve

C

of genus

2

over

m a t h b b C

. Let

denote the natural Brauer class over the stable locus. We prove that if

for some birational map

f

from

e x t M_{C} (2, m a t h c a l O_{C})

to

e x t M_{C^{'}} (2, m a t h c a l O_{C^{'}})

, then the Jacobians of

C

and of

C^{'}

are isomorphic as abelian varieties. If moreover these Jacobians do not admit real multiplication, then the curves

C

and

C^{'}

are isomorphic. Similar statements hold for Kummer surfaces in

m a t h b b P^{3}

and for quadratic line complexes.
