Appendix A: The theorem of Dolgachev–Kapranov
Let \(X \subseteq \textbf{P}(V) = \textbf{P}^r \) be a finite set of \(d \ge r+1\) points in linear general position, and denote by \(\mathcal {I}= \mathcal {I}_X \subseteq \mathcal {O}_{\textbf{P}(V)}\) the ideal sheaf of X. Green shows in [14, Theorem (3.c.6)] that \(K_{r-2, 2}(\textbf{P}^r, \mathcal {I}; V) \ne 0\) if and only if X lies on a rational normal curve.Footnote 1 Given the arguments from the previous section, it is natural to expect that one can use this to get a new proof of the Torelli-type theorem of Dolgachev and Kapranov from [8] (along with the numerical improvements by Vallès [18]). Inspired by some of the techniques in [14], we indicate here how this goes. For simplicity we assume that \(r \ge 3\).
Note to begin with that each \( H_{*}^{{i}} \big ( {\textbf{P}(V)} , {\mathcal {I}}\big ) =_{\text {def}} \oplus _k\, H^{{i}} \big ( {\textbf{P}(V)} , {\mathcal {I}(k)}\big ) \) is a graded module over the symmetric algebra \(\text {Sym}(V)\). In particular, there is a natural map
On the other hand, every point \(x \in X\subseteq \textbf{P}(V)\) determines a dual hyperplane , and so X itself gives rise to a normal crossing hyperplane arrangement \(\Sigma H_i\) on . One checks that the Dolgachev–Kapranov bundle is the Steiner bundle on determined by the multiplication map
deduced from (A.1). It is elementary that \(X \subseteq \text {Vall}\grave{\text {e}}\text {s}(E)\), and we want to verify
Proposition A.1
If \(X \subsetneqq \text {Vall}\grave{\text {e}}\text {s}(E)\), then X lies on a rational normal curve in \(\textbf{P}({V})\).
Equivalently, fix a subspace \(W \subseteq V\) of codimension one that generates \(\mathcal {O}_X\). In view of Lemma 1.2, we need to show that if the mapping
fails to be surjective, then X lies on a rational normal curve.
Since \(W \subseteq V\), each \(H_{*}^{{i}} \big ( {\textbf{P}(V)} , {\mathcal {I}}\big ) \) has the structure of a \(\text {Sym}(W)\)-module. The first point is that in bounded degrees, one can realize these as the cohomology modules of a sheaf \(\mathcal {J}\) on \(\textbf{P}(W)\). Specifically:
Lemma A.2
For any suitably large integer \(k_0 \gg 0\) one can construct a coherent sheaf \(\mathcal {J}\) on \(\textbf{P}(W)\) with the property that for \(i < r-1 = \dim \textbf{P}(W)\) there are isomorphisms
in degrees \(\le k_0\), and these isomorphisms are compatible with the \(\text {Sym}(W)\)-module structures on both sides.
Granting the Lemma for the time being, we give the
Proof of Proposition A.1
Tensoring the universal Koszul complex on \(\textbf{P}(W)\) by \(\mathcal {J}\), one arrives at a long exact sequence
of sheaves on \(\textbf{P}(W)\). This in turn gives rise to a hypercohomology spectral sequence abutting to zero. The bottom two rows of its \(E_1\) page have the form
where the cohomology groups are taken on \(\textbf{P}(W)\). The assumption (A.2) means (thanks to the Lemma) that the map
has a non-trivial kernel. This must cancel against the \(E_2\) term coming from the bottom row of the spectral sequence. In other words,
But \(K_{r-2,1}(\textbf{P}(W), \mathcal {J}) = 0\) since X does not lie on a hyperplane, so by (the analogue of) Lemma 2.1 (ii), we conclude that \(K_{r-2,2}(\textbf{P}(V), \mathcal {I}) \ne 0\). Then Green’s theorem applies to put X on a rational normal curve. \(\square \)
Proof of Lemma A.2
Let \(w \in \textbf{P}(V)\) be the point corresponding to \(W \subseteq V\), so that in particular \(w \not \in X\). Projection \( \pi : \big ( \textbf{P}(V) - \{ w \}\big ) \longrightarrow \textbf{P}(W) \) from w gives an identification
Then for \(k_0 \gg 0\), one arrives at a surjective mapping
of sheaves on \(\textbf{P}(W)\). It suffices to take \(\mathcal {J}= \ker (\varepsilon )\). \(\square \)
