Gonality–genus bound for the Seshadri constant of a polarized abelian variety
Gonality–genus bound for the Seshadri constant of a polarized abelian variety
Let be a polarized abelian variety, and let be a smooth curve of genus . Write for the gonality of and
for its -degree. Gonality–genus Seshadri conjecture. Then
This is proposed as a generalization of the corresponding Jacobian-case bound and is intended to support universal genus estimates for curves on polarized abelian varieties; its general validity is open.
