The sheaf of relative differentials of a fibred surface
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 October 2008
Abstract
Let Φ: S → C denote a fibration from a smooth projective surface onto a smooth curve, with fibres of genus ≥2. The double dual of the sheaf of relative differentials has been studied by F. Serrano [14]. There, it was proved that dim grows asymptotically as the square of n in case Φ is not isotrivial (i.e. fibres vary in modulus), and the converse holds true in most cases, in a way that can be made precise. In the non-isotrivial case, the present paper provides further information about by analysing the linear systems for large n. If P denotes the positive part of in its Zariski decomposition, then it is shown that |rP| is eventually base-point free for some r > 0. Furthermore, Proj is a normal projective surface, fibred over C, birational to S, and with only rational singularities.
