Ein–Lazarsfeld conjecture for linear syzygies

Let Pn\mathbf P^n be projective nn-space, embedded by OPn(d)\mathcal{O}_{\mathbf P^n}(d), and let Kp,1(Pn,OPn(d))\mathrm{K}_{p,1}(\mathbf P^n,\mathcal{O}_{\mathbf P^n}(d)) denote the Koszul cohomology group governing linear syzygies. Ein–Lazarsfeld conjecture for linear syzygies. Fix n2n\geq 2. For dn+1d\geq n+1,

Kp,1(Pn,OPn(d))=0\mathrm{K}_{p,1}(\mathbf P^n,\mathcal{O}_{\mathbf P^n}(d))=0

if p(d+n1n)+n1p\geq \binom{d+n-1}{n}+n-1. This is the q=1q=1 vanishing predicted by the broader Ein–Lazarsfeld conjecture; the paper studies this case, while the full conjecture remains open in general.
