We use Young tableaux to compute the dimension of $V^r$, the Prym–Brill–Noether locus of a folded chain of loops of any gonality. This tropical result yields a new upper bound on the dimensions of algebraic Prym–Brill–Noether loci. Moreover, we prove that $V^r$ is pure dimensional and connected in codimension $1$ when $\dim V^r \geq 1$. We then compute the 1st Betti number of this locus for even gonality when the dimension is exactly $1$ and compute the cardinality when the locus is finite and the edge lengths are generic.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
