Theory of Degeneration for Polarized Abelian Schemes
Theory of Degeneration for Polarized Abelian Schemes
This chapter reproduces the theory of degeneration data for polarized abelian varieties, following D. Mumford's 1972 monograph, An analytic construction of degenerating abelian varieties over complete rings, as well as the first three chapters of the Degeneration of abelian varieties (1990), by G. Faltings and C.-L. Chai. Although there is essentially nothing new in this chapter, some modifications have been introduced to make the statements compatible with a certain understanding of the proofs. Moreover, since Mumford and Faltings and Chai have supplied full details only in the completely degenerate case, this chapter balances the literature by avoiding the special case and treating all cases equally.
