Non-existence of Shimura curves of Mumford type generically in the non-hyperelliptic locus

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We show that there does not exist any Shimura curve with a strictly maximal Higgs field generically in the Torelli locus of non-hyperelliptic curves of genus g ≽ 4. In particular, Shimura curves of Mumford type are not generically in the Torelli locus of non-hyperelliptic curves of genus g ≽ 4.
