Serre duality package for the structure sheaf πͺ_C of a smooth complete
curve C: h^0(πͺ) = 1, h^1(πͺ) = g.
Instances For
Serre duality package for the canonical sheaf Ο_C: h^0(Ο) = g,
h^1(Ο) = 1.
Instances For
Serre duality for the structure sheaf: h^0(πͺ_C) = 1 and h^1(πͺ_C) = h^0(Ο_C) = g.
Corollary 29 (Lec 25): h^0(Ο_C) = g, the dimension of global sections
of the canonical sheaf equals the geometric genus.
The genus can be computed from h^0(K) and h^1(K): under
Serre duality h^1(K) = 1, so h^0(K) = g.
Numerical Corollary 29: Ο(πͺ) = 1 - g, Ο(Ο) = g - 1, and
Ο(πͺ) + Ο(Ο) = 0 (Serre duality for πͺ).
In the high-degree case where h^1 = 0, RiemannβRoch is exact:
h^0(L) = d + 1 - g.
For d β₯ 2g, h^0(L) β₯ g + 1.
For a genus-0 curve (i.e., βΒΉ), Ο(πͺ) = 1.
For a genus-0 curve, deg K = -2.
For a genus-0 curve, the Euler characteristic of πͺ(1) is 2.
On a genus-0 curve, h^0(πͺ(1)) = 2 (the two sections defining the
projective embedding).
For a genus-0 curve, the degree-1 line bundle provides a map to βΒΉ,
realised by Ο(πͺ(1)) = 2 together with vanishing of the Serre dual.
For a genus-0 curve and any d, when h^1 = 0, h^0(L(d)) = d + 1.
For an elliptic curve (genus 1), Ο(πͺ) = 0.
For an elliptic curve, deg K = 0 (the canonical bundle is trivial).
For an elliptic curve with h^1 = 0, h^0(L) = d.
An elliptic curve embeds as a smooth cubic in βΒ² via a degree-3 line
bundle: h^0(πͺ(3)) = 3.
For a genus-2 curve, deg K = 2.
For a genus-2 curve, h^0(K_C) = 2.
For a genus-2 curve and high degree (so h^1 = 0), h^0(L) = d - 1.
Verification: on βΒΉ, dim H^0(πͺ) = 1.
Verification: on βΒΉ, dim H^1(πͺ) = 0.
Verification: on βΒΉ, Ο(πͺ) = 1.
Serre duality on βΒΉ: dim H^1(πͺ(n)) = dim H^0(πͺ(-2 - n)).
On βΒΉ, dim H^0(πͺ(1)) = 2.
On βΒΉ, dim H^1(πͺ(1)) = 0.
On βΒΉ, for n β₯ 0, dim H^0(πͺ(n)) = n + 1.
On βΒΉ, for n β₯ 0, dim H^1(πͺ(n)) = 0.
On βΒΉ, dim H^0(πͺ(-1)) = 0.
On βΒΉ, dim H^1(πͺ(-2)) = 1 (corresponding to the canonical bundle).
Consistency: for mkCurve 0 = βΒΉ, the abstract Euler characteristic
matches the Δech computation.
Consistency: the genus of mkCurve 0 = βΒΉ equals dim H^1(πͺ).
The genus can be recovered from the structure sheaf's Euler characteristic:
g = 1 - Ο(πͺ).
Consequence of Cor 31 (Lec 25): deg K + 2 = 2g.
The Riemann inequality from the Serre duality data: d + 1 - g β€ h^0(L).
For the self-dual class L = K^{1/2} (degree g - 1), the Euler
characteristic is zero.
