On the gonality sequence of smooth curves: normalizations of singular curves in a quadric surface

Abstract: Let

C

be a smooth curve of genus

g

. For each positive integer

r

the

r

-gonality

d_{r} (C)

of

C

is the minimal integer

t

such that there is

L i n {P i c}^{t} (C)

with

h^{0} (C, L) = r + 1

. In this paper for all

g g e 40805

we construct several examples of smooth curves

C

of genus

g

with

d_{3} (C) / 3 < d_{4} (C) / 4

, i.e. for which a slope inequality fails.
