Fix a smooth, projective, geometrically integral curve $C$ of genus $g \geq 2$ over a characteristic zero field. We prove that the Ceresa cycle $\mathrm{Cer}(\widetilde{C})$ of a very general ramified cover $\widetilde{C}$ of $C$ is nontorsion in the Chow group of its Jacobian. We also show that there exist infinitely many families of ramified covers of a varying family of curves where a general point of these families corresponds to a curve with nontorsion Ceresa cycle. To illustrate this, we write down two explicit $1$-dimensional and $2$-dimensional families of genus $6$ curves where the locus of curves with torsion Ceresa cycle is Zariski closed and has positive codimension. Our strategy is to reduce the question of whether the Ceresa cycle is torsion to the question of whether a related point on the Jacobian of the curve is torsion. For this, we use the ``relative canonical shadow" of the Ceresa cycle, which is a point in the Jacobian of the curve obtained by intersecting the Ceresa cycle with a natural correspondence arising from the covering map. We combine this with ideas from unlikely intersection theory (namely the relative Manin--Mumford theorem) to study the locus where the relative canonical shadows of the Ceresa cycle become torsion.
研究动机与目标
- Motivate and study when the Ceresa cycle of covers of a curve is torsion or nontorsion in CH_1(J); connect this to broader questions about torsion loci in moduli.
- Develop and use the concept of a relative canonical shadow to translate Ceresa-torsion questions into Jacobian torsion questions.
- Employ unlikely intersection theory (Manin–Mumford–Raynaud, Masser–Zannier, and relative versions) to analyze the torsion locus in families of covers.
- Provide explicit families of genus 6 curves where the locus of torsion Ceresa cycles is Zariski closed with positive codimension.
- Relate findings to the structure of the Ceresa-torsion locus in moduli and to conjectures of Zilber–Pink type for variations of mixed Hodge structures.]
