Jul 20, 2012 at 11:32 comment added Alex I am interested in general $g,n,r$, for generic $C$ their values are restricted by the Brill-Noether number being nonnegative.
Jul 19, 2012 at 20:05 comment added Jason Starr @Alex: "I am mainly interested in smooth $C$". Are you interested in "general" or "generic" $C$? If so, then Brill-Noether theory essentially gives a complete answer.
Jul 19, 2012 at 16:05 comment added Alex I am aware of this inequality. I wonder if something more precise is known (or at least conjectured). I am mainly interested in smooth $C$.
Jul 19, 2012 at 14:36 comment added Francesco Polizzi You are right. I corrected the answer, thank you.

Jul 19, 2012 at 14:24 comment added Jason Starr The dimension inequality you write is true if $C$ is a local complete intersection scheme. In general, you do need some extra conditions to reduce the "natural" obstruction group to $H^1(C,\mathcal{N})$, cf. pp. 33-35 of Koll\'ar's "Rational Curves on Algebraic Varieties".
