Remarks on the Griffiths infinitesimal invariant of algebraic curves
Abstract
We study two canonically defined admissible normal functions on the moduli space of smooth genus algebraic curves including the Ceresa normal function. In particular, we study the vanishing criteria for the Griffiths infinitesimal invariants of both normal functions over a specific family of curves.
1. Introduction
1.1. Backgrounds
Let be a non-hyperelliptic smooth algebraic curve of genus . In [Cer83] Ceresa showed there is a canonically defined homologous algebraic cycle in which is not algebraically trivial, verifies the non-triviality of the corresponding Griffiths group. This cycle is known as Ceresa cycle.
Properties of Ceresa cycle is a board and active research topic. In this article we focus on the complex geometric and Hodge theoretic aspect. In particular, we focus on the Griffiths’ Abel-Jacobi map (3.18) associated to the Ceresa cycle. When the curve varies in a family, a natural tool in Hodge theory to study deformation of the Ceresa cycle is the associated admissible normal function, which we denoted as .
Given a family of curves over a quasi-projective base, we are particularly interested in the positive-dimensional locus over which the Ceresa cycle is torsion. Such locus must be contained in the positive-dimensional torsion locus of which is shown to be algebraic by [KT24]. To obtain a better picture of this locus, One way is to study the Griffiths infinitesimal invariant associated to the normal function . is intuitively the ”derivative” of normal functions and could be study in various ways. For example, in [CP95] Collino-Pirola studied over the moduli of genus curves by using the adjunction morphism and produced several interesting results.
In this paper we are going to apply Collino-Pirola’s adjunction formula to for the genus case. Firstly, over all rank deformations we search vanishing criteria for . Secondly, we study a specific family of genus curves. We will show has maximal rank (See Section 3 for definitions) over this family, and moreover give nice control on the locus on which drops rank.
1.2. Main results
The first main result of this paper is to generalize part of Collino-Pirola’s results to the genus case. Besides the Ceresa normal function , there is another canonical normal function associated to family of genus curves defined by Griffiths in [Gri83, Sec. 6], which we denote as 111Strictly speaking, is only well-defined over , the moduli space with an additional level- structure, but is well-defined for any ..
Theorem 1.1.
For a general non-hyperelliptic genus curve , and have the same vanishing criteria for rank deformations of as both of them vanish exactly along the Schiffer variations.
The main strategy for the proof is to find relations between the Griffiths infinitesimal invariants and the canonical embedding. In particular, we are able to realize as a certain projective hyperplane cutting off the canonical curve, generalize a similar result of [CP95, Thm 4.2.4] for the genus case.
While coming to general first-order deformations, the two normal functions and behave very differently. In the second part of the paper we study a certain family of genus curves which can be realized as a triple cover of the projective line branched over double points. We denote this family of curves as (See Section 5). Our second main theorem is about the behaviors of and over this family:
Theorem 1.2.
For the family of trigonal genus curves , the normal function as well as its Griffiths infinitesimal invariant vanishes identically while the Ceresa normal function has maximal rank. Moreover, if is a subvariety on which is locally constant, then and the tangent bundle must be contained in a certain algebraic subbundle of .
The equation defining the subbundle of controlling is found by explicitly calculating the Kodaira-Spencer classes of the family, see Theorem 5.5.
To show has maximal rank over this family, we need an alternative description on the rank of normal function which is the third main result of this paper:
Theorem 1.3 (Theorem 6.4).
If a normal function underlying a variation of Hodge structures has co-rank , then there is a Zariski open subset foliated by -dimensional algebraic subvarieties on each of which is locally constant.
The proof of algebraicity of these -dimensional submanifolds requires o-minimal geometry and its application in Hodge theory. We give a brief survey in Appendix 6. Next we will consider the algebraic monodromy group of the variation over each of these subvarieties. Theorem 1.2 will be concluded from a Zariski density argument.
1.3. Some related works
Normal functions over the moduli space of (stable) curves including the Ceresa normal function has been extensively studied, we refer readers to [Hai13] for a comprehensive overview.
Rank of the Ceresa normal function over for was proven to be maximal, independently by Gao-Zhang [GZ24] and Hain [Hai24]. As a generalization of [CP95], Pirola-Zucconi showed in [PZ03] that over a dimension- subvariety of , the Griffiths infinitesimal invariant of must not vanish unless the subvariety is the hyperelliptic locus.
One may also interested in finding specific families of curves on which drops rank, including those (positive-dimensional) families on which the Ceresa cycle itself is torsion. Some known examples include [Lat23], [QZ24]. Relation between the Ceresa cycle themselves and their Abel-Jacobi image is also an interesting topic, see for example [LS24].
The author is aware of the preprint [GZ24] which contains some results similar to the Appendix 6. In particular, the maximal rank part of Theorem 1.2 can also be concluded from [GZ24, Cor. 1.8].

2. Basic deformation theory
Let be a smooth algebraic curve of genus which is not hyperelliptic. Recall that its first-order deformation space is , which has dimension .
Consider Noether’s map:
(2.1) |
which is injective by Noether’s theorem. For any , we say has rank if its image under Noether’s map (2.1) has rank . We also note that any rank transformations has the form for some , and any rank transformation has the form for independent .
Fix an orthonormal basis of . The canonical embedding of is read as:
(2.2) |
Consider the -Veronese embedding , the image may be identified with the projective space of rank transformations in .
Definition 2.1.
We say a rank transformation is a Schiffer variation at if is the Veronese image of .
Proposition 2.2.
A rank transformation is a Schiffer variation at if and only if is a base point of .
In general, for an effective divisor on , we say is supported on if annihilates . A Schiffer variation is thus supported on .
If , is an intersection of hyperplanes. These hyperplanes cut off the Veronese image of along a set of quadric hypersurfaces in containing the canonical image of . We arrive at Griffiths’ famous theorem:
Theorem 2.3 (Griffiths).
For a non-hyperelliptic curve , every rank transformation in is a Schiffer variation if and only if is cut off by quadric hypersurfaces.
When , it is well-known that is the intersection of a quadric and a cubic . In this case not every rank transformation is a Schiffer variation.
3. Normal functions and Griffiths infinitesimal invariants
3.1. Basic theory of normal functions
Let be an integral polarized variation of Hodge structures (-PVHS) of weight with type defined over a quasi-projective base . The intermediate Jacobian associated to is . We also define
(3.1) |
as the horizontal part of .
Definition 3.1.
A normal function assocated to is a section of .
In general, we only care about normal functions which are admissible. The precise definition can be found at for example [Sai96]. Briefly speaking, admissibility means the existence of relative monodromy weight filtrations and nilpotent orbit theorem ([Sch73]) along the boundary strata.
Let be a family of smooth projective varieties of dimension and be a subvariety of codimension such that for each , . For each the Griffiths Abel-Jacobi map associates an element in where defined as follows.
Use the identification:
(3.2) |
there is the defining formula
(3.3) |
where and is a -chain satisfies , both vary smoothly locally around .
By patching together all intermediate Jacobians and the Abel-Jacobi image given by , we obtain a normal function as a section of . Such a normal function is said to be of geometric origin.
Theorem 3.2 (Voisin).
Normal functions of geometric origins are admissible.
3.2. The rank of normal function
In this subsection we fix a -PVHS of weight and an admissible normal function . For any , we have the (split) exact sequence:
(3.4) |
Let be the natural projection .
Definition 3.3.
The rank of at a point is defined to be the rank of the tangent map:
(3.5) |
The rank of is defined to be the rank of at a very general point .
Remark 3.4.
By using the identification
(3.6) |
as -manifolds, we may also define the rank of at by half of the rank of the real tangent map:
(3.7) |
The following lemma is an immediate consequence from the definition:
Lemma 3.5.
is locally constant if and only if it has rank . In this case for any , there exists a neighborhood such that admits a lift in , the -flat sections of on .
There will be more discussions about the normal function rank in Section 6.
3.3. The Griffiths infinitesimal invariant
Associated to a normal function is a differential invariant of studied by Griffiths [Gri83], denoted as which is described as follows.
For , choose any local lift of around , we have
(3.8) |
Consider the Koszul complex:
(3.9) |
since different choices of are differed by elements in and -flat sections, gives a well-defined element in the Koszul cohomology group:
(3.10) |
This is usually called the (full) Griffiths infinitesimal invariant of at .
In practice a weaker invariant called the first Griffiths infinitesimal invariant is more suitable for calculation. Consider the graded part of (3.9):
(3.11) |
The first Griffiths infinitesimal invariant gives a well-defined element in:
(3.12) |
By considering the dual complex of (3.11):
(3.13) |
can also be seen as a linear function on:
(3.14) |
given by:
(3.15) |
where is any local lift of around .
The Griffiths infinitesimal invariant is a powerful tool to study the local behavior of a normal function. In particular, we have:
Theorem 3.6 ([Gri83], Sec. 6(a)).
The normal function is locally constant, or say has rank , if and only if at every .
Remark 3.7.
It is clear that is a necessary but in general not sufficient condition for . To fill the gap between them, in [Gre89] Mark Green defined a sequence of infinitesimal invariants such that the vanishing of all of holds if and only if . We will not use these invariants in the rest of the paper.
For the rest of this paper, by the Griffiths infinitesimal invariant we mean the first Griffiths infinitesimal invariant.
3.4. Infinitesimal invariant the Ceresa cycle normal function
Fix a smooth genus algebraic curve and a marked point . The image of Abel-Jacobi map in gives an algebraic cycle . In [Cer83] Ceresa showed for a general curve ,
(3.16) |
where
(3.17) |
is the Griffiths group. The Griffiths Abel-Jacobi map (3.3) gives:
(3.18) |
The image depends on the base point , but its projection onto the primitive factor
(3.19) |
does not ([CP95], Prop. 2.2.1). Therefore, associated to the universal curve of genus : is a -PVHS with fibers being the primitive cohomology and associated admissible normal function given by the Ceresa cycle. By the existence of the Kuranishi family, is well-defined and called the Griffiths infinitesimal invariant of .
More precisely, the family of intermediate Jacobians has fiber at given by (3.19). Therefore gives a linear function on defined by equation (3.14).
We introduce a result given by Collino-Pirola which is useful on computing the infinitesimal invariant. Let be a transformation with , and are independent forms annihilated by .
Theorem 3.8 ([CP95], Sec. 2).
for any orthogonal to if and only if is supported on the base locus of .
The proof relies on the construction of the adjunction map defined in [CP95], we will not cover it in details here.
4. The Genus four case
We will be focusing on the case in the rest of the paper. It is well-known that for a general smooth genus curve , its canonical embedding into is the intersection of a unique quadric and a cubic well-defined up to cubics generated by .
To the family of smooth genus curves, let be the universal curve and be the associated PVHS. There is a family of -cycles defined up to a sign which leads to an admissible normal function underlying , and hence a well-defined infinitesimal invariant for any .
4.1. The normal function
Since any quadric hypersurface is isomorphic to , the two rulings of cut off the canonical curve at the divisor
(4.1) |
which is homologous to zero and whose image in is well-defined up to a sign. Therefore, is just the normal function associated to this family of cycles:
(4.2) |
In [Gri83] Griffiths studied the infinitesimal invariant over . Fix a non-hyperelliptic curve , we have via the Kodaira-Spencer map. Consider the set of rank deformations of :
, , .
Such that the image of the Kodaira-Spencer class in has rank . Using the identification introduced in the beginning of Sec. 2, this set may be identified with the quadric hypersurface .
Theorem 4.1 ([Gri83]).
vanishes if and only if , equivalently if and only if is a Schiffer variation.
Indeed, he showed that defines an element in whose vanishing locus is exactly the canonical curve .
4.2. The Ceresa normal function
In this subsection we consider the Ceresa normal function over and its infinitesimal invariant . In particular, we show and has the same vanishing locus on rank deformations.
Let be the period map where is the moduli space of principally polarized abelian varieties of dimension . The image of is known as the Jacobian divisor of . Let and . Denote as the Hodge decomposition of . We have the commutative diagram:
(4.3) |
Following the computation in [Nor93, Sec. 7], the bottom row of (4.3) is exact, while the top row has the cohomology group defined in (3.14) (We regard the curve as a point in ).
Let . It follows that . Choose an orthonormal basis of . The equivalence is given on decomposible tensors by
(4.4) |
where is the Hodge-star operator.
Take any . There is a well-defined map defined by:
(4.5) |
Since different choice of are differed by a constant multiple or an element in , the map with image in is canonically defined. By pulling back we may realize as a linear functional on .
Notice that for any rank transformation , take as an orthonormal basis of , the maps (4.4) and (4.5) are read as:
(4.6) |
The following proposition together with Theorm 4.1 implies the main Theorem 1.1.
Proposition 4.2.
For a general genus curve , vanishes on the image of a rank deformation under (4.6) if and only if is a Schiffer variation.
Proof.
We first show does not vanish identically on the Veronese image of . It suffices to find one curve and one rank deformation such that does not vanish on the image of under (4.6).
We consider the same example as [Gri83, Sec. 6(d)]. Take and satisfy that the two rulings of at have triple and double tangent point with at respectively. The plane generated by in represents a holomorphic form . Take another two forms such that , and are mutually orthogonal. Take . The base locus of is while is not supported on as it does not annihilate . Theorem 3.8 implies does not vanish for all .
It remains to show for any and the corresponding Schiffer variation , vanishes on the image of under (4.6), but this follows the fact vanishes as is a base point of . ∎
5. A family of special trigonal curves
Denote as the weighted projective plane . Consider the family of smooth projective curves
(5.1) |
where
(5.2) |
Hence is isomorphic to , the moduli space of distinct marked points on up to projective equivalence. For , the curve has affine equation
(5.3) |
It is clear admits a to covering map to branched along double points. By Riemann-Hurwitz, it has genus . Moreover it admits a degree -automorphism .
Remark 5.1.
By [Loo24], the family parametrizes curves admitting a whose discriminant divisor on is the sum of (distinct) double points.
To show the main Theorem 1.2, we independently check the behaviors of and over the family .
5.1. Rationally triviality of the cycle
For there is a canonical basis of compatible with the eigenspace decomposition of the induced action from :
(5.4) |
Take this ordered basis and consider the corresponding canonical embedding , the canonical image lies on the quadric surface
(5.5) |
The two rulings are given by the lines:
(5.6) | |||
(5.7) |
for . Take such that
(5.8) |
it follows that . Hence for any , , the cycle on is rationally trivial222This also implies can be defined over without adding any level structures..
5.2. The Ceresa cycle
To study the Ceresa normal function of the family, we need to compute the explicit Kodaira-Spencer image of . Clearly
(5.9) |
To find the Kodaira-Spencer image of , we notice that
(5.10) | |||
(5.11) |
It follows that
(5.12) | |||
(5.13) |
are both holomorphic, therefore is annihilated by the Kodaira-Spencer class of .
Moreover, it is clear for any ,
(5.14) |
and similarly
(5.15) |
As a consequence we have the following lemma.
Lemma 5.2.
For any , its Kodaira-spencer class in has rank , and the two dimensional kernel .
We compute the explicit Kodaira-Spencer classes of . For convenience denote
(5.16) |
we compute the class of in .
Lemma 5.3.
(5.17) | |||
(5.18) | |||
(5.19) | |||
(5.20) |
Proof.
The calculation is similar to [CMP17, Chap. 1.1], we solve and the remaining ones are parallel. Note that around ,
(5.21) |
where represents some higher-order terms. Let be small enough open neighborhoods of on which is a local coordinate. Since both and are holomorphic over ,
(5.22) | |||
(5.23) | |||
(5.24) | |||
(5.25) | |||
(5.26) | |||
(5.27) |
∎
A direct consequence of Lemma 5.3 is:
Proposition 5.4.
For any , its Kodaira-Spencer image has rank . Moreover, it sends to and to , where is a holomorphic form in orthogonal to .
For any , suppose . We consider whether vanishes on the first deformation of given by . If we can show that is not supported on the base locus of , then Theorem 3.8 implies does not vanish on the first-order deformation of given by .
By (5.17), for ,
(5.28) |
On the other hand, for a form , by [McM13, Sec. 3], the zero locus is precisely given by the roots of .
To sum up, for , makes have non-empty base locus if and only if
(5.29) |
where
(5.30) |
Since this is a plane quadric which does not contain any linear subspaces of other than points (generically), we may conclude:
Theorem 5.5.
The Ceresa normal function has rank for the family . Moreover, if is a curve on which is locally constant, then the tangent bundle must contained in the subbundle of determined by (5.29).
Remark 5.6.
Since the family descends to a family and , Theorem 1.2 implies the curves in on which is locally constant are given by projective curves in .
5.3. The algebraic monodromy group
Consider a general -PVHS with associated monodromy group , where is the fiber at a reference point.
Definition 5.7.
Let be a field, the -algebraic monodromy group is the connected component of the -Zariski closure of .
Remark 5.8.
Let be the generic Mumford-Tate group of the VHS defined over , then is a normal subgroup of , the derived subgroup of , see [And92].
Proposition 5.9.
The -algebraic monodromy group of the family is isomorphic to . In particular, is irreducible as a -representation.
We are ready to prove the main Theorem 1.2. Suppose has generic rank . By Theorem 6.4, there exists a Zariski open subset such that is foliated by algebraic curves on each of which is locally constant. We take a general leaf in .
Lemma 5.10.
and have the same -algebraic monodromy group .
Proof.
Since is a zariski open subset of , the monodromy of is generated by the monodromy operator around each irreducible component of the divisor . A generic leaf must intersect each component of transversally, which means the monodromy group of and have the same set of generators. ∎
On the other hand, since is locally constant on , there exists lifting , which means should be fixed by the monodromy group which implies is contained in the stabilizer of , a contradiction. This concludes has maximal rank.
We are able to conclude a bit more: The proof showed that if there is an (-dimensional) leaf over which is locally constant, then the - algebraic monodromy group must not be generic. Therefore, the positive-dimensional locus on which the Ceresa normal function is torsion must have special -algebraic monodromy group.
Corollary 5.11.
The positive-dimensional locus in on which the Ceresa normal function is torsion must contain in the (algebraic) weakly special subspace of (in the sense of [Bak+24, Sec. 6.3]).
6. Appendix: Definability of normal functions
In this section we survey the theory of normal functions using the mixed Hodge theory aspects. We also introduce the application of o-minimal geometry in Hodge theory. As a consequence, we prove a theorem regarding the locus on which a normal function is locally constant.
6.1. Normal function as variation of mixed Hodge structures
Regarding basic facts of admissible integral polarized variation of mixed Hodge structures (-PVMHS), we refer readers to [Bak+24, Sec. 3-4]. In this section we assume all normal functions and VMHS are admissible.
A normal function underlying a -PVHS can be regarded as a -PVMHS with only non-trivial graded quotients, with:
(6.1) | |||
(6.2) |
where is the Tate Hodge structure. In other words, the exact sequence
(6.3) |
realizes as an element in . Note that the sequence (6.3) always splits over . We say the normal function is vanishing (resp. torsion) if the corresponding sequence (6.3) splits over (resp. ).
Let for some reference point . Let be the -algebraic subgroup of preserving the weight filtration , and be its unipotent radical. Let be the mixed period domain parametrizing all -PVMHS on with the type given by (6.1).
Let be the subdomain of all -split members in , be the period domain for the underlying -PVHS , and be the -splitting variety of .
Proposition 6.1.
The following properties hold.
-
(1)
acts transitively on .
-
(2)
.
-
(3)
.
Proof.
Remark 6.2.
(2) is false in general, for example when contains a mixed Hodge structure not splitting over .
The normal function thus give rise to a mixed period map
(6.4) |
where is the monodromy group of and is the monodromy group of .
6.2. More on rank of normal functions
We keep definitions and notations from Section 3. Suppose for some , denote as the co-rank of .
Theorem 6.3 ([GZ24]).
, where
(6.5) |
are algebraic subvarieties of .
In other words, there exists a Zariski open subset such that for every . Therefore after possibly replace by one of its zariski open subset, we may assume . The main result of this section is the following.
Theorem 6.4.
admits a foliation by dimension- algebraic subvarieties on each of which the normal function is locally constant.
We first prove a weaker version of Theorem 6.4.
Proposition 6.5.
admits a foliation by dimension- complex submanifolds on each of which the normal function is locally constant, which we call the leaves of the foliation.
Proof.
The co-rank of at equals to implies in a local neighborhood , a local holomorphic lift and some flat local section such that
(6.6) |
for a generic point . the projection of this intersection on gives a -dimensional complex submanifold of .
Therefore, the condition that the co-rank of at every point is means there is a rank- integrable holomorphic distribution on whose integral submanifolds are -dimensional submanifolds of . ∎
Another ingredient to prove Theorem 6.4 is o-minimal geometry, see [BBT22] for an introduction. We will show the following proposition:
Proposition 6.6.
The -dimensional leaves in Proposition 6.5 are all definable in the o-minimal structure .
6.3. Proof of Proposition 6.6
By using the -isomorphism we may regard as an element in .
Choose a projective completion of such that is a simple normal crossing divisor. We may take a finite open cover of such that for each . For any complex analytic leaf of , showing has a definable structure compatible with is enough for showing Proposition 6.6. We thus reduce to showing the case when is a normal function defined over .
Consider the associated mixed period map and its lift to , where is the Siegel upper half space:
(6.7) |
The following two results are critical:
Proposition 6.7.
[Bak+24, Prop. 5.2-5.3] The image of is contained in a (finite union of) fundamental set of acting on , where is a subset of the form:
(6.8) |
for some . In particular, the composition is definable.
Proposition 6.8.
[Bak+24, Prop. 6.5] Using , if is a fundamental set for the -action on and is a bounded semi-algebraic subset, then is definable in the o-minimal structure .
We are ready to finish our proof. Note that in the normal function case . For any consider the subset . is an -definable subset in , therefore is a definable subset in being contained in some fundamental set of .
To sum up, choose properly such that is surjective, we have a diagram lies in the category of definable analytic spaces:
(6.9) |
By definition, a leaf given by Proposition 6.5 is exactly the projection of on for some (in which case is the constant lift of ), therefore must be definable.
