Derivative of the Abelian sum map

ID: derivative-of-the-abelian-sum-map

For an effective divisor on an algebraic curve on a smooth projective curve, the Zariski tangent space to its symmetric product of a curve is . The derivative of the Abelian sum map is the connecting homomorphism of . Its dual under Serre duality is restriction of holomorphic differential forms to , including all jets at repeated points. Hence its rank is , and its image annihilates .
