Let [Formula: see text] be a smooth projective algebraic curve of genus [Formula: see text], over the finite field [Formula: see text]. A classical result of H. Martens states that the Brill–Noether locus of line bundles [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is of dimension at most [Formula: see text], under conditions that hold when such an [Formula: see text] is both effective and special. We show that the number of such [Formula: see text] that are rational over [Formula: see text] is bounded above by [Formula: see text], with an explicit constant [Formula: see text] that grows exponentially with [Formula: see text]. Our proof uses the Weil estimates for function fields, and is independent of Martens’ theorem. We apply this bound to give a precise lower bound of the form [Formula: see text] for the probability that a line bundle in [Formula: see text] is base point free. This gives an effective version over finite fields of the usual statement that a general line bundle of degree [Formula: see text] is base point free. This is applicable to the author’s work on fast Jacobian group arithmetic for typical divisors on curves.

We introduce the strength for sections of a line bundle on an algebraic variety. This generalizes the strength of homogeneous polynomials that has been recently introduced to resolve Stillman's conjecture, an important problem in commutative algebra. We establish the first properties of this notion and give some tool to obtain upper bounds on the strength in this framework. Moreover, we show some results on the usual strength such as the reducibility of the set of strength two homogeneous polynomials.

It is a classical result that prime numbers of the form x2 + ny2 can be characterized via class field theory for an infinite set of n. In this paper, we derive the function field analogue of the classical result. Then, we apply an effective version of the Chebotarev density theorem to bound the degree of the smallest irreducible of the form x2 - dy2, where x, y, and d are elements of a polynomial ring over a finite field.

Abstract We approach non-divisorial base loci of big and nef line bundles on irreducible symplectic varieties. While for K3 surfaces, only divisorial base loci can occur, nothing was known about the behaviour of non-divisorial base loci for more general irreducible symplectic varieties. We determine the base loci of all big and nef line bundles on the Hilbert scheme of two points on very general K3 surfaces of genus two and on their birational models. Remarkably, we find an ample line bundle with a non-trivial base locus in codimension two. We deduce that, generically in the moduli spaces of polarized K3[2]-type varieties, the polarization is base point free.

A line bundle, L, on a smooth, connected projective surface, S, is defined [7] to be k-very ample for a non-negative integer, k, if given any 0-dimensional sub-scheme with length , it follows that the restriction map is onto. L is 1-very ample (respectively 0-very ample) if and only if L is very ample (respectively spanned at all points by global sections). For a smooth surface, S, embedded in projective space by | L | where L is very ample, L being k-very ample is equivalent to there being no k-secant Pk−1 to S containing ≥ k + 1 points of S.

In this paper we apply the theory of quasi-free states of CAR algebras and Bogolubov automorphisms to give an alternative C*-algebraic construction of the Determinant and Pfaffian line bundles discussed by Pressley and Segal and by Borthwick. The basic property of the Pfaffian of being the holomorphic square root of the Determinant line bundle (after restriction from the Hilbert space Grassmannian to the Siegel manifold, or isotropic Grassmannian, consisting of all complex structures on an associated Hilbert space) is derived from a Fock–anti-Fock correspondence and an application of the Powers–Størmer purification procedure. A Borel–Weil type description of the infinite dimensional Spin c- representation is obtained, via a Shale–Stinespring implementation of Bogolubov transformations.

AbstractLet $X$ be a compact Kähler manifold and let $(L,{\it\varphi})$ be a pseudo-effective line bundle on $X$. We first define a notion of numerical dimension for pseudo-effective line bundles with singular metrics, and then discuss the properties of this numerical dimension. Finally, we prove a very general Kawamata–Viehweg–Nadel-type vanishing theorem on an arbitrary compact Kähler manifold.

Here we prove the existence of several pairs (X, L), where X is a geometrically integral projective curve defined over 𝔽q and L is a line bundle on X defined over 𝔽q and with H0(X, L) = H1(X, L) = 0. These examples are obtained using the existence of similar line bundles on the normalization of X, i.e. a case studied by C. Ballet, C. Ritzenthaler and R. Roland.

In place of a real valued differentiable (C2) function on a closedn-dimensional differentiable manifoldM, we may more generally consider a differentiable section s in any line bundleLonM, assumed to have structural groupZ2, the group of integers modulo two. Since the usual definitions of a critical point and of a non-degenerate critical point are local in nature, and since composing a differentiable real valued function with the functiont→—t does not change its set of critical points or its set of non-degenerate critical point, it is clear that we may speak of critical points and nondegenerate critical points of the section s. Unless the bundle has a fixed trivialization however, the index of a non-degenerate critical point must be thought of as a set of two numbers {k, n—k), corresponding to the two indices arising from the two trivializations possible forLrestricted to a small enough neighborhood of the point, i.e. corresponding to the two possible ways of reading the index. With this understanding we extend the usual definitions, and call a differentiable (C2) section s of L a Morse section if each of its critical points is non-degenerate.

A projective manifold [Formula: see text] is algebraically hyperbolic if there exists a positive constant [Formula: see text] such that the degree of any curve of genus [Formula: see text] on [Formula: see text] is bounded from above by [Formula: see text]. A classical result is that Kobayashi hyperbolicity implies algebraic hyperbolicity. It is known that Kobayashi hyperbolic manifolds have finite automorphism groups. Here, we prove that, more generally, algebraically hyperbolic projective manifolds have finite automorphism groups.
