A remark on the conjecture of Donagi-Morrison (2412.02256v1)

Abstract: Let $X$ be a K3 surface, let $C$ be a smooth curve of genus $g$ on $X$, and let $A$ be a base point free and primitive line bundle $g_d^r$ on $C$ with $d\geq4$ and $r\geq\sqrt{\frac{d}{2}}$. In this paper, we prove that if $g>2d-3+(r-1)^2$, then there exists a line bundle $N$ on $X$ which is adapted to $|C|$ such that $|A|$ is contained in the linear system $|N\otimes\mathcal{O}_C|$, and ${\rm{Cliff}}(N\otimes\mathcal{O}_C)\leq {\rm{Cliff}}(A)$.
