Abstract

We use Young tableaux to compute the dimension of Vr⁠, 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 Vr is pure dimensional and connected in codimension 1 when dimVr≥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.
