The strong maximal rank conjecture for linear series on general curves
Let , , and be positive integers such that and . For a general curve of genus , let denote the variety of divisor classes of degree and rank at least , and define
Here is the multiplication map and . The strong maximal rank conjecture. The variety has expected dimension
This refines the maximal rank conjecture by predicting not only maximal rank of the multiplication map for a general linear series, but also the dimension of the locus where maximal rank fails. The source discusses the conjecture in the range ; the status of the general prediction is not specified in the supplied text.
