Abstract

In the classical case of irreducible smooth algebraic curves every genus 22 curve is hyperelliptic, or in other words there is a complete linear series g21g_2^1 on them. On the other hand if g>2g > 2, then a generic smooth curve of genus 22 is nonhyperelliptic. In this article we investigate the situation of normal surface singularities, so we fix a resolution graph T\mathcal{T} and a generic singularity with resolution \tX\tX corresponding to it in the sense of \cite{NNII}. We consider an integer effective cycle ZZ on the resolution \tX\tX and investigate the existence of a complete linear series g21g_2^1 on it. The article has the main motivation that we will use heavily the results in it to compute the class of the image varieties of Abel maps in a following manuscript.
