Lazzeri's Jacobian of oriented compact riemannian manifolds

The subject of this paper is a Jacobian, introduced by F. Lazzeri, (unpublished), associated to every compact oriented riemannian manifold of dimension twice an odd number. We start the investigation of Torelli type problems and Schottky type problem for Lazzeri's Jacobian; in particular we examine the case of tori with flat metrics. Besides we study Lazzeri's Jacobian for Kahler manifolds and its relationship with other Jacobians. Finally we examine Lazzeri's Jacobian of a bundle.
