Pencil decomposition conjecture for residual tetragonal line bundles

At least 32 years old · documented by

Let CC be a non-hyperelliptic curve of genus gg with a base-point free tetragonal system TT, and suppose CC has the complete-intersection presentation on a three-dimensional rational normal scroll described above. Let KC(−T)K_C(-T) be the residual line bundle. Pencil decomposition conjecture. Under these assumptions, there exists a decomposition

KC(−T)≅A+B,K_C(-T)\cong A+B,

where AA and BB are base-point free pencils of degree g−3g-3. This conjecture is proposed as a method for proving the preceding Koszulness conjecture and is therefore stronger than it; the source gives no resolution.
