Kodaira dimension of symmetric powers

Algebraic Geometry 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

In this short note, we determine the Kodaira dimension and some of the plurigenera of (a desingularization of) a symmetric power of a smooth projective variety. We use it to obtain bounds on the genus of curve passing through a fixed number of general points.
