Lower bounds for Clifford indices in rank three

Clifford indices for semistable vector bundles on a smooth projective curve of genus at least 4 were defined in previous papers by the authors. In this paper, we establish lower bounds for the Clifford indices for rank 3 bundles. As a consequence we show that, on smooth plane curves of degree at lea...

Zusammenfassung:Clifford indices for semistable vector bundles on a smooth projective curve of genus at least 4 were defined in previous papers by the authors. In this paper, we establish lower bounds for the Clifford indices for rank 3 bundles. As a consequence we show that, on smooth plane curves of degree at least 10, there exist non-generated bundles of rank 3 computing one of the Clifford indices.
