On Clifford's theorem for rank-3 bundles.

Herbert Lange, Peter E. Newstead (2006)

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

In this paper we obtain bounds on h0(E) where E is a semistable bundle of rank 3 over a smooth irreducible projective curve X of genus g ≥ 2 defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. These bounds are expressed in terms of the degrees of stability s1(E), s2(E). We show also that in some cases the bounds are best possible. These results extend recent work of J. Cilleruelo and I. Sols for bundles of rank 2.

On cubics and quartics through a canonical curve

Christian Pauly (2003)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

We construct families of quartic and cubic hypersurfaces through a canonical curve, which are parametrized by an open subset in a grassmannian and a Flag variety respectively. Using G. Kempf’s cohomological obstruction theory, we show that these families cut out the canonical curve and that the quartics are birational (via a blowing-up of a linear subspace) to quadric bundles over the projective plane, whose Steinerian curve equals the canonical curve

On rank 2 semistable vector bundles over an irreducible nodal curve of genus 2

Sonia Brivio (1998)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Sia C una curva irriducibile nodale di genere aritmetico p a = 2 . In queste note vogliamo mostrare come il sistema lineare delle quadriche, contenenti un opportuno modello proiettivo della curva, permette di descrivere i fibrati vettoriali semistabili, di rango 2 , su C .

On the motives of moduli of chains and Higgs bundles

Oscar García-Prada, Jochen Heinloth, Alexander Schmitt (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We take another approach to Hitchin’s strategy of computing the cohomology of moduli spaces of Higgs bundles by localization with respect to the circle action. Our computation is done in the dimensional completion of the Grothendieck ring of varieties and starts by describing the classes of moduli stacks of chains rather than their coarse moduli spaces. As an application we show that the n -torsion of the Jacobian acts trivially on the middle dimensional cohomology of the moduli space of twisted...

Orthogonal bundles on curves and theta functions

Arnaud Beauville (2006)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Let be the moduli space of principal SO r -bundles on a curve C , and the determinant bundle on . We define an isomorphism of H 0 ( , ) onto the dual of the space of r -th order theta functions on the Jacobian of C . This isomorphism identifies the rational map | | * defined by the linear system | | with the map | r Θ | which associates to a quadratic bundle ( E , q ) the theta divisor Θ E . The two components + and - of are mapped into the subspaces of even and odd theta functions respectively. Finally we discuss the analogous...
