For a general $k$-gonal curve $C$ with a morphism $f: C \rightarrow \mathbb{P}^1$ of degree $k$, we consider the refinement of the Brill-Noether schemes $W^r_d(C)$ by means of the Brill-Noether degeneracy schemes…

Let $X$ be a K3 surface, let $C$ be a smooth curve of genus $g$ on $X$, and let $A$ be a base point free and primitive line bundle $g_d^r$ on $C$ with $d\geq4$ and $r\geq\sqrt{\frac{d}{2}}$. In this paper, we prove that if $g>2d-3+(r-1)^2$,…

In this article we study Brill-Noether loci of moduli space of stable bundles over smooth surfaces. We define Petri map as an analogy with the case of curves. We show the non-emptiness of certain Brill-Noether loci over very general quintic…

We extend a result by Fulton-Harris-Lazarsfeld in Brill-Noehter theory of line bundles and, as well, a result by Aprod-Sernesi in theory of Secant Loci, to the Brill-Noehter locus of stable bundles inside the moduli space of higher rank…

The genus of projective curves discretely separates decidedly different two variable algebraic relations. So, we can focus on the connected moduli M_g of genus g curves. Yet, modern applications require a data variable (function) on such…

We establish Green's syzygy conjecture for classes of covers of curves of higher Clifford dimension. These curves have an infinite number of minimal pencils, in particular they do not verify a well-known Brill-Noether theoretic sufficient…

We describe applications of Koszul cohomology to the Brill-Noether theory of rank 2 vector bundles. Among other things, we show that in every genus g>10, there exist curves invalidating Mercat's Conjecture for rank 2 bundles. On the other…

In this paper, we compute the number of general points through which a general Brill-Noether curve in $\mathbb{P}^4$ passes. We also prove an analogous theorem when some points are constrained to lie in a transverse hyperplane. As explained…

In this manuscript we investigate the analouge of the Brill-Noether problem for smooth curves in the case of normal surface singularities. We determine the maximal possible value of $h^1$ of line bundles without fixed components in the…

Let $C$ be a smooth irreducible projective curve and let $(L,H^0(C,L))$ be a complete and generated linear series on $C$. Denote by $M_L$ the kernel of the evaluation map $H^0(C,L)\otimes\mathcal O_C\to L$. The exact sequence $0\to M_L\to…

Given a family $\pi:\mc{X} \rightarrow B$ of smooth projective varieties, a closed fiber $\mc{X}_o$ and an invertible sheaf $\mc{L}$ on $\mc{X}_o$, we compare the Hodge locus in $B$ corresponding to the Hodge class $c_1(\mc{L})$ with the…

We formulate a tropical analogue of Grothendieck's section conjecture: that for every stable graph G of genus g>2, and every field k, the generic curve with reduction type G over k satisfies the section conjecture. We prove many cases of…

Let $X \subset \mathbb P^3$ be a very general sextic surface over complex numbers. In this paper we study certain Brill-Noether problems for moduli of rank $2$ stable bundles on $X$ and its relation with rank $2$ weakly Ulrich and Ulrich…

Reider's Theorem on the very ampleness of adjoint linear series on a complex projective algebraic surface is extended in two new directions. First, Reider-type inequalities are shown to imply nefness of linear series of the form dH - E on…

For a smooth, irreducible projective surface S over \mathbb{C}, the number of r-nodal curves in an ample linear system |L| (where L is a line bundle on S) can be expressed using the rth Bell polynomial P_{r} in r universal functions a_{i}…

Let $V_{n,d}$ be the variety of equations for hypersurfaces of degree $d$ in $\mathbb{P}^n(\mathbb{C})$ with singularities not worse than simple nodes. We prove that the orbit map $G'=SL_{n+1}(\mathbb{C}) \to V_{n,d}$, $g\mapsto g\cdot…

In this short note, I point out that results of Ballico and Kool--Shende--Thomas together imply that on $K3$, Enriques, and Abelian surfaces, if $L$ is a very ample and $(2p_a(L)-2g-1)$-spanned line bundle, then the equigeneric Severi…

Let $\mathcal{H}_{d,g,r}$ be the Hilbert scheme parametrizing smooth irreducible and non-degenerate curves of degree $d$ and genus $g$ in $\mathbb{P}^r.$ We denote by $\mathcal{H}^\mathcal{L}_{d,g,r}$ the union of those components of…

Denoting by ${\mathcal L}_d(m_0,m_1,...,m_r)$ the linear system of plane curves passing through $r+1$ generic points $p_0,p_1,...,p_r$ of the projective plane with multiplicity $m_i$ (or larger) at each $p_i$, we prove the…

Let C be a smooth projective complex curve of genus $g\geq2$. We investigate the Brill-Noether locus consisting of stable bundles of rank 2 and canonical determinant having at least $k$ independent sections. Using the Hecke correpondence we…
