The Minimal Syzygy Conjecture for general curves

About 18 years old · traced to

Fix integers r,s≥1r,s\geq1, set d:=rs+rd:=rs+r and g:=rs+sg:=rs+s, so that ρ(g,r,d)=0\rho(g,r,d)=0, and let CC be a general curve in Mg\mathcal M_g. For every L∈Wdr(C)L\in W^r_d(C) and every integer pp satisfying

0≤p≤r−2ss+1,0\leq p\leq\frac{r-2s}{s+1},

Minimal Syzygy Conjecture. One has

Kp,2(C,L)=0.K_{p,2}(C,L)=0.

This conjecture interpolates between Green's conjecture for general curves and the Maximal Rank Conjecture. The source introduces it as new and gives no resolution status.
