Guardia's Mumford isomorphism conjecture for hyperelliptic period matrices
Let be a hyperelliptic Riemann surface of genus , let be a period matrix associated to , and let
be a fundamental system, where is the set of fundamental systems obtained from permutations of the Weierstrass points of . Write for the quantity associated with the first theta characteristics, and let denote the theta constant associated with . Guardia's conjecture. The formula
holds. This conjectural identity is an explicit form of the Mumford isomorphism for hyperelliptic curves, relating the Jacobian-type expression to a product of theta constants. The source attributes it to Guardia and presents it as a conjecture; the notation and the omitted formula label should be checked against the surrounding definitions.
