A modified Donagi–Morrison conjecture for linear series on K3 surfaces

About 13 years old · traced to

Let SS be a K3K3 surface, let CC be a smooth irreducible curve of genus g≥2g\geq 2 on SS, and let AA be a complete, base point free linear series gdrg^r_d on CC, with d≤g−1d\leq g-1 and Brill–Noether number ρ(g,r,d)<0\rho(g,r,d)<0. A line bundle MM on SS is adapted to ∣L∣|L| in the sense used in the paper; the restriction of MM to CC is M⊗OCM\otimes\mathcal O_C. Modified Donagi–Morrison conjecture. There exists a line bundle M∈Pic⁡(S)M\in\operatorname{Pic}(S), adapted to ∣L∣|L|, such that ∣A∣|A| is contained in the restriction of ∣M∣|M| to CC and

Cliff⁡(M⊗OC)≤Cliff⁡(A).\operatorname{Cliff}(M\otimes\mathcal O_C)\leq \operatorname{Cliff}(A).

The modification drops the degree inequality that the paper disproves; the candidate is presented as something one might still believe, and no resolution is supplied in the given text.
