Invariants of ample line bundles on projective varieties and their applications. I (Q936521)

The author defines several invariants and discuss their properties which might be useful in the future study. Let \(X\) be a smooth projective variety defined over the complex number field with dimension \(n\) and \(L\) an ample line bundle on \(X\). Then \((X, L)\) is called a polarized manifold. The classification of polarized manifolds is an interesting topic in algebraic geometry and there are three well-known invariants: (1) the degree \(L^n\); (2) the sectional genus \(g(L)=1+{\frac{1}{2}} (K_X+(n-1)L)L^{n-1}\); (3) the \(\Delta\)-genus \(\Delta (L)=n+L^n-h^0(L)\). Let \(X\) be a projective variety and \(L_1,\dots, L_{n-i}\) be line bundles on \(X\), where \(i\) is an integer between 1 and \(n\). Let \(F\) be a coherent sheaf on \(X\). The author introduces new invariants of \((X, L_1,\dots, L_{n-i}; F)\) (Definition 2.1): the \(i\)-th sectional \(H\)-arithmetic genus, the \(i\)-th sectional geometric genus and the \(i\)-th sectional arithmetic genus. The main results are the equations of Euler-Poincaré characteristic (Theorem 2.1, Theorem 2.2) and properties of these three new invariants (Theorem 2.3, Theorem 2.4).
