Torsion points on theta divisors and semihomogeneous vector bundles

Abstract

We generalize to $n$ -torsion a result of Kempf’s describing $2$ -torsion points lying on a theta divisor. This is accomplished by means of certain semihomogeneous vector bundles introduced and studied by Mukai and Oprea. As an application, we prove a sharp upper bound for the number of $n$ -torsion points lying on a theta divisor and show that this is achieved only in the case of products of elliptic curves, settling in the affirmative a conjecture of Auffarth, Pirola and Salvati Manni.
