However, quadratic forms can be used to determine some concrete information about symmetric elements of these moduli spaces. As an application, we prove a novel result: there exist abelian surfaces containing curves with singularities of arbitrarily high multiplicity.

However, quadratic forms can be used to determine some concrete information about symmetric elements of these moduli spaces.
