On the Difference of 4-Gonal Linear Systems on some Curves

Ohbuchi, Akira (1997)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

Let C = (C, g^1/4 ) be a tetragonal curve. We consider the scrollar invariants e1 , e2 , e3 of g^1/4 . We prove that if W^1/4 (C) is a non-singular variety, then every g^1/4 ∈ W^1/4 (C) has the same scrollar invariants.

On the dimension of secant varieties

Luca Chiantini, Ciro Ciliberto (2010)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

In this paper we generalize Zak’s theorems on tangencies and on linear normality as well as Zak’s definition and classification of Severi varieties. In particular we find sharp lower bounds for the dimension of higher secant varieties of a given variety X under suitable regularity assumptions on X , and we classify varieties for which the bound is attained.
