The dimension-seven conjecture for tritangents of space sextics
The dimension-seven conjecture for tritangents of space sextics
Let be a smooth space sextic contained in a singular quadric. Let , where is one of the odd theta characteristics and is the vanishing even theta characteristic. The space is the associated space appearing in the tritangent construction.
Dimension-seven conjecture.
The conjecture is motivated by the paper's computation showing this dimension for an example and by the observation that it occurs for every arising from one of the odd theta characteristics in that example. Its general validity for smooth space sextics contained in singular quadrics is not established in the supplied text.
