Weil Classes and Decomposable Abelian Fourfolds

We determine which codimension two Hodge classes on × , where is a general abelian surface, deform to Hodge classes on a family of abelian fourfolds of Weil type. If a Hodge class deforms, there is, in general, a unique such family. We show how to determine the imaginary quadratic field acting on...

description We determine which codimension two Hodge classes on × , where is a general abelian surface, deform to Hodge classes on a family of abelian fourfolds of Weil type. If a Hodge class deforms, there is, in general, a unique such family. We show how to determine the imaginary quadratic field acting on the fourfolds of Weil type in this family, as well as their polarization. There are Hodge classes that may deform to more than one family. We relate these to Markman's Cayley classes.

Discussions with E. Markman, K.G. O’Grady, F. Russo, and C. Schoen were very helpful. I thank the referees for their comments and suggestions.
