Book excerpt: Given n general points p1,p2,…,pn∈Pr, it is natural to ask when there exists a curve C⊂Pr, of degree d and genus g, passing through p1,p2,…,pn. In this paper, the authors give a complete answer to this question for curves C with nonspecial hyperplane section. This result is a consequence of our main theorem, which states that the normal bundle NC of a general nonspecial curve of degree d and genus g in Pr (with d≥g+r) has the property of interpolation (i.e. that for a general effective divisor D of any degree on C, either H0(NC(−D))=0 or H1(NC(−D))=0), with exactly three exceptions.
