چکیده
We explore the relationship between limit linear series and fibers of Abel maps in the case of curves with two smooth components glued at a single node. To an r-dimensional limit linear series satisfying a certain exactness property (weaker than the refinedness property of Eisenbud and Harris) we associate a closed subscheme of the appropriate fiber of the Abel map. We then describe this closed subscheme explicitly, computing its Hilbert polynomial and showing that it is Cohen–Macaulay of pure dimension r. We show that this construction is also compatible with one-parameter smoothings.

Abel maps and limit linear series
Definition 2.1. Fix integers d and r. A limit (linear) series on X of degree d and rank r is a collection consisting of an invertible sheaf L on X of degree d on Y and degree 0 on Z, and vector subspaces Vi ⊆ Γ(X,L) of dimension r + 1, for each i = 0, . . . , d, such that φ(Vi) ⊆ Vi+1 and φi(Vi+1) ⊆ Vi for each i. Given a limit series (L, V0, . . . , Vd), we denote by V Y,0 i the subspace of Vi...
متن کاملLimit Linear Series: Constructions and Applications
We discuss the Eisenbud-Harris theory of limit linear series, and survey a number of applications, ranging from the geometry of moduli spaces of curves to connectedness of certain Hurwitz spaces. We also present a more recent construction of limit linear series, and discuss applications and potential applications both to classical linear series and to their higher-rank generalization. In this s...
متن کاملNaturality of Abel maps
We give a combinatorial characterization of nodal curves admitting a natural (i.e. compatible with and independent of specialization) d-th Abel map for any d ≥ 1. Let X be a smooth projective curve and d a positive integer; the classical d-th Abel map of X , αX : X d −→ PicX , associates to (p1, . . . , pd) ∈ X the class of the line bundle OX(p1 + . . .+ pd) in Pic d X . Such a morphism has goo...

متن کاملLINEAR SERIES OVER REAL AND p-ADIC FIELDS
We note that the degeneration arguments given by the author in [5] to derive a formula for the number of maps from a general curve C of genus g to P with prescribed ramification also yields weaker results when working over the real numbers or p-adic fields. Specifically, let k be such a field: we see that given g, d, n, and e1, . . . , en satisfying P i (ei − 1) = 2d − 2 − g, then there exists ...
