Abstract

One of the most elegant classical results about nonsingular algebraic curves is Riemann’s singularity theorem, which provides a beautiful interpretation of the singularities of Riemann’s theta function in terms of the geometry of special divisors. In recent times, soliton theory has suggested generalizations of the classical geometry. Integrable partial differential equations posed with periodic or scattering boundary conditions lead to Riemann surfaces of infinite, or even “continuously infinite”, genus, and to correspondingly huge Jacobians ([McKT], [EMcK]). More special boundary conditions have been studied via the theory of infinite-dimensional Lie groups and their homogeneous spaces. In this latter approach, one finds a large family of (possibly infinite-dimensional) algebraic varieties that are natural generalizations of the classical Jacobians. The Lie-theoretic aspects of these varieties are, of course, prominent in such work ([SW], [Sch]). In another direction, soliton problems have led naturally to singular limits of smooth Riemann surfaces. While, in the abstract, singular curves and their Jacobians are a subject of current research, soliton theory provides a concrete context in which to study such algebraic varieties.
