On the Unit Groups of Commutative Modular Group Algebras of KT-Groups

ABSTRACT

In this article, we prove that the inner projection of a projective curve with higher linear syzygies has also higher linear syzygies. Specifically, if a very ample line bundle ? on a smooth projective curve X satisfies property N _p for p  ≥  1 and H ¹ (? ^? 2) =  0 , then ?( ?  q ) satisfies property N _{p ? 1} for any point q  ∈  X . We also give simple proofs of well-known theorems about syzygies and raise some questions related to the line bundles of degree 2 g which do not satisfy property N ₁ .
