Abstract

In dimension n=2m24n = 2m-2 \geq 4 adjunction theoretic scrolls over a smooth mm-fold may not be classical scrolls, due to the existence of divisorial fibers. A 44-dimensional scroll (X,L)(X,L) over P3\mathbb P^3 of this type is considered, and the equation of its Hilbert curve Γ\Gamma is determined in two ways, one of which relies on the fact that (X,L)(X,L) is at the same time a classical scroll over a threefold YP3Y \not=\mathbb P^3. It turns out that Γ\Gamma does not perceive divisorial fibers. The equation we obtain also shows that a question raised in a previous article by Beltrametti, Lanteri and Sommese, has negative answer in general for non-classical scrolls over a 33-fold. More precisely, the answer for (X,L)(X,L) is negative or positive according to whether (X,L)(X,L) is regarded as an adjunction theoretic scroll or as a classical scroll; in other words, it is the answer to this question to distinguish between the existence of jumping fibers or not.
