We determine these numbers completely for linear series of arbitrary dimension when d is sufficiently large, and for all d when either r=1 or n=r+2. Our formulas generalize and give new proofs of recent results of Tevelev and of Cela-Pandharipande-Schmitt.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-05-19T18:02:52.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "linear series", "general curve", "schubert calculus", "arbitrary dimension", "satisfying prescribed incidence conditions" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
