Segre-like conjecture for linear systems on generic K3 surfaces

Let SS) be a generic K3K3 surface with Pic(S)=ZH{\rm Pic}(S)=\mathbb{Z}H, where H2=2g22H^2=2g-2\geq 2. Let p1,,prp_1,\ldots,p_r be points in general position on SS, with prescribed multiplicities m1,,mrm_1,\ldots,m_r, and let

L=Ln(d,m1,,mr),n=2g2,\mathcal L=\mathcal L^n(d,m_1,\ldots,m_r),\qquad n=2g-2,

be the linear system of curves in dH|dH| having multiplicity mim_i at pip_i. A linear system is special when its imposed conditions are dependent, equivalently when its first cohomology does not vanish. Segre-like conjecture. If L\mathcal L is non-empty and reduced, then it is non-special. This is presented as a Segre-type prediction for systems through general fat points on generic K3K3 surfaces; the paper states that no previous conjecture concerning their structure had been formulated and later proves that this conjecture is equivalent to the more detailed conjecture in the paper. Its status is not resolved in the supplied source.
