Abstract
Let C be a smooth projective curve with Jacobian J and let C(n) denote the nth symmetric product of C with itself. For n sufficiently large there is a map C(n) !J that makes C(n) into a projective bundle over J, associated with a certain vector bundleE over J. In an article by A. Mattuck [Amer. J. Math. 83 (1961), 189–206; ], the Chern classes of E were computed in terms of powers of the rational equivalence class of the canonical subvariety of C(n) (isomorphic to C(n−1)). We generalize these computations to a special kind of vector bundle F over a smooth quasi-projective variety. The necessary restriction on F is grosso modo that of having m general sections, for some m < rk F.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
