Abstract

We develop in this article an algorithm that, given a projective curve \(C\), computes a gonal map, that is, a finite morphism from \(C\) to \(\mathbb P ^1\) of minimal degree. Our method is based on the computation of scrollar syzygies of canonical curves. We develop an improved version of our algorithm for curves with a unique gonal map and we discuss a characterization of such curves in terms of Betti numbers. Finally, we derive an efficient algorithm for radical parametrization of curves of gonality \(\le 4\).

Take care that what we call a \(p^{th}\) syzygy corresponds to a \((p-1)^{th}\) syzygy in [8].
