The Hodge conjecture predicts that it is contained in the image, under the Abel-Jacobi map, of the cohomology of a family of curves in the theta divisor. We survey some of the results known about this primitive cohomology, prove a few general facts and mention some interesting open problems.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-10-21T22:04:29.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14C30", "14K99" ], "keywords": [ "theta divisor", "primitive cohomology", "hodge conjecture predicts", "principally polarized abelian variety", "hodge structure" ], "tags": [ "conference paper" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014arXiv1410.5868I" } } }
