Line bundles with partially vanishing cohomology

Burt Totaro (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Define a line bundle L on a projective variety to be q -ample, for a natural number q , if tensoring with high powers of L kills coherent sheaf cohomology above dimension q . Thus 0-ampleness is the usual notion of ampleness. We show that q -ampleness of a line bundle on a projective variety in characteristic zero is equivalent to the vanishing of an explicit finite list of cohomology groups. It follows that q -ampleness is a Zariski open condition, which is not clear from the definition.
