dc.descriptionLet $C$ be a smooth curve of genus $g\ge 4$ and Clifford index $c$. In this paper, we prove that if $C$ is neither hyperelliptic nor bielliptic with $g\ge 2c+5$ and $\mathcal M$ computes the Clifford index of $C$, then either $°\mathcal M\le \frac{3c}{2}+3$ or $|\mathcal M|=|g^1_{c+2}+h^1_{c+2}|$ and $g=2c+5$. This strengthens the Coppens and Martens' theorem (\cite{CM}, Corollary 3.2.5). Furthermore, for the latter case (1) $\mathcal M$ is half-canonical unless $C$ is a $\frac{c+2}{2}$-fold covering of an elliptic curve, (2) $\mathcal M(F)$ fails to be normally generated with $\cli(\mathcal M(F))=c$, $h^1(\mathcal M(F))=2$ for $F\in g^1_{c+2}$. Such pairs $(C,\mathcal M)$ can be found on a $K3$-surface whose Picard group is generated by a hyperplane section in $\mathbb P^r$. For such a $(C, \mathcal M)$ on a K3-surface, $\mathcal M$ is normally generated while $\mathcal M(F)$ fails to be normally generated with $\cli(\mathcal M)=\cli(\mathcal M(F))=c$.
