The Abel map for surface singularities. III: Elliptic germs (Q2069653)

Let \((X,o)\) be a normal complex surface singularity with rational homology sphere link and \(\tilde X \to X\) a resolution with exceptional set \(E\). A divisor on \(\tilde X\) supported on \(E\) is called a cycle. The authors have studied the theory of Abel maps on effective Cartier divisors on cycles and analyzed the cohomology of invertible sheaves on \(\tilde X\); see [\textit{J. Nagy} and \textit{A. Némethi}, Math. Ann. 375, No. 3--4, 1427--1487 (2019; Zbl 1436.32091)] and [\textit{J. Nagy} and \textit{A. Némethi}, Adv. Math. 371, Article ID 107268, 37 p. (2020; Zbl 1444.32030)]. These methods can apply to investigate analytic invariants and structures of complex surface singularities. The present article provides precise results on Brill-Noether type problem for \(\mathrm{Pic}(\tilde X)\) when \((X,o)\) is an elliptic singularity. It is known that the splice quotient singularities introduced by Neumann-Wahl are characterized by the End Curve Condition (ECC) [\textit{W. D. Neumann} and \textit{J. Wahl}, J. Eur. Math. Soc. (JEMS) 12, No. 2, 471--503 (2010; Zbl 1204.32019)]. The Weak End Curve Condition (WECC) is a weaker condition which enable us to obtain the \(p_g\)-formula similar to that of splice quotients, but a few results are known about this property. In this article, the authors show basic properties of the topology (combinatorial data) of singularities with WECC and prove that an elliptic singularity satisfies the WECC if and only if it satisfies the ECC in terms of the Abel map. This article also introduces a new elliptic sequence for non numerically Gorenstein singularities which connects some invariants to that of numerically Gorenstein sub singularities.
