Abstract

We give criteria for the Jacobian of a singular curve X with at most ordinary n-point singularities to be anti-affine. In particular, for the case of curves with single ordinary double point we exhibit a relation with torsion divisors. If the geometric genus of the singular curve is atleast 3 and the normalization is non-hyperelliptic and non-bielliptic, then except for finitely many cases the Jacobian of X is anti-affine. Furthermore, if the normalization is a general curve of genus atleast 3 then the Jacobian of X is always anti-affine.
