Title
Extended Torelli Map to the Igusa Blowup in Genus 6, 7, and 8.
Abstract
It was conjectured in [Namikawa 73] that the Torelli map M-g -> A(g) associating to a curve its Jacobian extends to a regular map from the Deligne-Mumford moduli space of stable curves (M) over bar (g) to the ((n)ormalization of the) Igusa blowup (A) over bar (cent)(g). A counterexample in genus g = 9 was found in [Alexeev and Brunyate 11]. Here, we prove that the extended map is regular for all g <= 8, thus completely solving the problem in every genus.
