Krämer–Weissauer's Tannakian Schottky conjecture

About 1 year old · traced to

Let Jg\mathcal{J}_g denote the locus of gg-dimensional Jacobians in the moduli space Ag\mathcal{A}_g of principally polarized abelian varieties, and let Jgfake\mathcal{J}^\mathrm{fake}_g be the closure of the locus where the Tannakian group and representation associated to the theta divisor have the form occurring for Jacobians. Krämer–Weissauer's Tannakian Schottky conjecture. For g≥0g\geq 0, we have

Jg=Jgfake.\mathcal{J}_g=\mathcal{J}^\mathrm{fake}_g.

Krämer's result shows that the Jacobian locus is an irreducible component of the fake-Jacobian locus, giving a weak solution to the Schottky problem; the conjecture asserts that no additional points occur.
