Strong Donagi–Morrison conjecture for Lazarsfeld–Mukai bundles

At least 2 years old · documented by

Let (S,H)(S,H) be a polarized K3 surface of genus gg, let C∈∣H∣C\in|H| be a smooth irreducible curve, and let AA be a complete basepoint-free gdrg^r_d on CC with r≥2r\geq 2 and ρ(g,r,d)<0\rho(g,r,d)<0. Let EC,AE_{C,A} denote the associated Lazarsfeld–Mukai bundle.

Strong Donagi–Morrison conjecture. There is a nontrivial line bundle N↪EC,AN\hookrightarrow E_{C,A} with h0(S,N)≥2h^0(S,N)\geq 2 such that EC,A/NE_{C,A}/N is stable.

This stronger formulation would produce the line bundles used in known lifting arguments by requiring a stable quotient of the Lazarsfeld–Mukai bundle. The source states that the conjecture is false, with counterexamples cited in the literature.
