Here we prove a numerical bound implying that, except for smooth plane conics in characteristic 2, no complete linear system maps birationally a smooth curve into a projective space with a strange curve as image.

Limit Weierstrass schemes on stable curves with 2 irreducible components

Marc Coppens, Letterio Gatto (2001)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Similarity:

We are concerned with limits of Weierstrass points under degeneration of smooth curves to stable curves of non compact type, union of two irreducible smooth components meeting transversely at m 1 points. The case m = 1 having already been treated by Eisenbud and Harris in [8], we analyze the situation for m > 1 .
