Covers of an Elliptic Curve E and Curves in ExP1

We describe the hyperplane sections of the Severi variety of curves in ExP1 in a similar fashion to Caporaso—Harris’ seminal work. From this description we almost get a recursive formula for the Severi degrees—we get the terms, but not the coefficients. As an application, we determine the compon...

description We describe the hyperplane sections of the Severi variety of curves in ExP1 in a similar fashion to Caporaso—Harris’ seminal work. From this description we almost get a recursive formula for the Severi degrees—we get the terms, but not the coefficients. As an application, we determine the components of the Hurwitz space of simply branched covers of a genus one curve. In return, we use this characterization to describe the components of the Severi variety of curves in E × P1, in a restricted range of degrees. === Mathematics
