abelian variety

Definition 1.

An abelian variety over a field $k$ is a proper group scheme over $\\operatorname{Spec}k$ that is a variety.

This extremely terse definition needs some further explanation.

Proposition 1.

The group law on an abelian variety is commutative.

This implies that for every ring $R$ , the $R$ -points of an abelian variety form an abelian group.

Proposition 2.

An abelian variety is projective.

If $C$ is a curve, then the Jacobian of $C$ is an abelian variety. This example motivated the development of the theory of abelian varieties, and many properties of curves are best understood by looking at the Jacobian.

If $E$ is an elliptic curve, then $E$ is an abelian variety (and in fact $E$ is naturally isomorphic to its Jacobian).

See Mumford’s excellent book Abelian Varieties. The bibliography for algebraic geometry has details and other books.
