Mumford-type Shimura curves contained in the Torelli locus
Abstract
In this article we give explicit equations for two Shimura families of genus 4 curves whose Jacobians are abelian fourfolds of Mumford type. These are the first explicit examples of abelian varieties over Q with endomorphism algebra Z and additional Hodge tensors.
