Huisman's conjecture for unramified real curves in even-dimensional projective space
Huisman's conjecture for unramified real curves in even-dimensional projective space
Let be a smooth, geometrically integral, nondegenerate real curve with . A real curve is unramified if every real hyperplane satisfies
where the weight is the degree of the difference between and its reduced divisor. A twisted form of a rational normal curve is a real curve whose base change is a rational normal curve. Huisman's conjecture. If is even and is an unramified real curve, then is a rational normal curve or a twisted form of a rational normal curve. Huisman’s computations show nonzero real inflection-point counts for certain positive-genus embeddings, while the classification asserted here remains open.
