Exercise 111.52.7. Let k be a field. Write \mathbf{P}^3_ k = \text{Proj}(k[X_0, X_1, X_2, X_3]). Let C \subset \mathbf{P}^3_ k be a type (5, 6) complete intersection curve. This means that there exist F \in k[X_0, X_1, X_2, X_3]_5 and G \in k[X_0, X_1, X_2, X_3]_6 such that
is a variety of dimension 1. (Variety implies reduced and irreducible, but feel free to assume C is nonsingular if you like.) Let i : C \to \mathbf{P}^3_ k be the corresponding closed immersion. Being a complete intersection also implies that
is an exact sequence of sheaves. Please use these facts to:
compute \chi (C, i^*\mathcal{O}_{\mathbf{P}^3_ k}(n)) for any n \in \mathbf{Z}, and
compute the dimension of H^1(C, \mathcal{O}_ C).
