COVERS OF ALGEBRAIC VARIETIES VI. ANGLO-AMERICAN COVERS AND (1,3)-POLARIZED ABELIAN SURFACES
Casnati, Gianfranco;

Abstract
In the present paper we describe a class of Gorenstein, finite and at morphism $\small{{\varrho}}$: $\small{X{\rightarrow}Y}$ of degree 6 of algebraic varieties, called Anglo-American covers. We prove a general Bertini theorem for them and we give some evidence that the cover $\small{{\varrho}}$: $\small{A{\rightarrow}\mathbb{P}_k^2}$ associated general (1, 3)-polarized abelian surface is Anglo-American.
