Varieties of sums of powers and moduli spaces of \((1,7)\)-polarized abelian surfaces




Abstract: We study the geometry of some varieties of sums of powers related to the Klein quartic. This allows us to describe the birational geometry of certain moduli spaces of abelian surfaces. In particular we show that the moduli space mathcalA2(1,7)sym of (1,7)-polarized abelian surfaces with a symmetric theta structure and an odd theta characteristic is unirational by showing that it admits a dominant morphism from a unirational conic bundle.
