Clifford's Theorem for graphs

Algebraic Geometry 2013-04-24 v1 Combinatorics

Abstract

Let Γ\Gamma be a metric graph having a linear system g2rrg^r_{2r} for some 2rg22 \leq r \leq g-2 then Γ\Gamma has a linear system g21g^1_2. This is similar to the well-known Clifford's Theorem from the theory of linear systems on smooth projective curves.
