Albanese variety - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (274 words) |
 | In mathematics, the Albanese variety is a construction of algebraic geometry, which for an algebraic variety V solves a universal problem for morphisms of V into abelian varieties. |
| The Albanese variety generalises the construction of the Jacobian variety of an algebraic curve; and was introduced to study algebraic surfaces. |
| The duality theory of abelian varieties is used to pass from the Picard variety, which is constructed as a representable functor, to the Albanese. |
