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 $\mathbb{Q}$ with endomorphism algebra $\mathbb{Z}$ and additional Hodge tensors.
