Colloq., Vol. 29 (1946). 1) See my paper, On the Picard varieties attached to algebraic varieties, Amer. J. of Math. Vol. 74 (1952). We cite this paper as (P). 2) Cf. (P) and also my paper, Algebraic correspondences between algebraic varieties, Jap. J. of Math., Vol. 3 (1951). 3) The V-divisor X(z) was defined in the following way. Let k be a field of definition of the continuous family X and let w be a generic point of A over k, then X(z) is one of the specializations of X(w)=pγV[X·(w×V)] over the specialization w→z with reference to k. 4) Cf. W. L. Chow, On compact complex analytic varieties, Amer. J. of Math., Vol. 71 (1949), theorem 7. 5) This fact can be reduced easily to the case of curves. In this case the assertion is proved in Weil's book: Variétés Abéliennes et courbes algébriques, Act. Sc. et Ind. N° 1064 (1948), lemme 10. 6) Indeed this idea had been applied in my first (unpublished) proof of the birational invariance of the Picard variety. 7) I have borrowed this formulation (with a slight modification) from a letter of A. Weil to W. L. Chow in February 12, 1951. We note also that the functions ψ and ψ are essentially unique, which correspond to the “canonical function” (Cf. loc. cit. 5) in the case of curves. 8) An integral matrix M is called a complex multiplication from ω1 to ω2 if there exists a complex matrix μ such that μω1=ω2M.
