Points of order two on theta divisors

Valeria Ornella Marcucci, Gian Pietro Pirola

Published 2012-02-07Version 1

We give a bound on the number of points of order two on the theta divisor of a principally polarized abelian variety A. When A is the Jacobian of a curve C the result can be applied in estimating the number of effective square roots of a fixed line bundle on C.
