Abstract

In the paper we consider the Jacobian locus \(\overline{J_g}\) and the Prym locus \(\overline{P_{g+1}}\), in the moduli space \(A_g\) of principally polarized abelian varieties of dimension \(g\), for \(g\geq 7\), and we study the extrinsic geometry of \(\overline{J_g}\subset \overline{P_{g+1}}\), under the inclusion provided by the theory of generalized Prym varieties as introduced by Beauville. More precisely, we study certain geodesic curves with respect to the Siegel metric of \(A_g\), starting at a Jacobian variety \([JC]\in A_g\) of a curve \([C]\in M_g\) and with direction \(\zeta\in T_{[JC]}J_g\). We prove that for a general \(JC\), any geodesic of this kind is not contained in \(\overline{J_g}\) and even in \(\overline{P_{g+1}}\), if \(\zeta\) has rank $k
