Birkhoff strata of the Grassmannian Gr(2)\mathrm{^{(2)}}: Algebraic curves

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

Algebraic varieties and curves arising in Birkhoff strata of the Sato Grassmannian Gr(2){^{(2)}} are studied. It is shown that the big cell Σ0Σ_0 contains the tower of families of the normal rational curves of all odd orders. Strata Σ2nΣ_{2n}, n=1,2,3,...n=1,2,3,... contain hyperelliptic curves of genus nn and their coordinate rings. Strata Σ2n+1Σ_{2n+1}, n=0,1,2,3,...n=0,1,2,3,... contain (2m+1,2m+3)−(2m+1,2m+3)-plane curves for n=2m,2m−1n=2m,2m-1 (m≥2)(m \geq 2) and (3,4)(3,4) and (3,5)(3,5) curves in Σ3Σ_3, Σ5Σ_5 respectively. Curves in the strata Σ2n+1Σ_{2n+1} have zero genus.
