Abstract
Let Y be an integral projective curve whose singularities are of type Ak, i.e. with only tacnodes and planar (perhaps non-ordinary) cusps. Set g:= pa(Y). Here we study the Brill - Noether theory of spanned line bundles on Y. If the singularities are bad enough, we show the existence of spanned degree d line bundles, L, with h0(Y, L) ≥ r + 1 even if the Brill - Noether number ρ(g, d, r) < 0. We apply this result to prove that genus g curves with certain singularities cannot be hyperplane section of a simple K3 surface S ⊂ P g.
