Farkas's pure-resolution conjecture for nonspecial curves
Farkas's pure-resolution conjecture for nonspecial curves
Let be an integer, and consider general smooth normal curves in projective space with the indicated genus and degree.
Farkas's conjecture. A general smooth normal curve of odd genus and degree has a pure resolution, equivalently satisfies . A general smooth normal curve of even genus and degree has a pure resolution, equivalently satisfies .
The supplied status evidence says that this case was settled in the cited work using reducible curves, so the conjecture is recorded as solved.
