Generic geometric syzygy conjecture for canonical curves
Generic geometric syzygy conjecture for canonical curves
Let be a general canonical curve of genus . A -th linear syzygy of is scrollar if it has rank .
Generic geometric syzygy conjecture. For every , the space of -th linear syzygies of is spanned by scrollar syzygies.
This conjecture proposes that scrollar syzygies account for all linear syzygies of a general canonical curve. The preceding discussion relates scrollar syzygies to linear systems on canonical curves and notes that, for general -gonal canonical curves, Green's conjecture is equivalent to the existence of a scrollar syzygy in every step of the linear strand.
