contents We show that for two classes of $m$-secant curves $X \subset S$, with $m \geq 2$, where $f : S = \mathbb{P} (\mathcal{O}_Y \oplus \mathcal{O}_Y (E)) \to Y$ and $E$ is a non-special divisor on a smooth curve $Y$, the Tschirnhausen module $\mathcal{E}^{\vee}$ of the covering $φ= f_{|_X} : X \to Y$ decomposes completely as a direct sum of line bundles. Specifically, we prove that: for $X \in |\mathcal{O}_S (mH)|$, where $H$ denotes the tautological divisor on $S$, one has $ \mathcal{E}^{\vee} \cong \mathcal{O}_Y (-E) \oplus \cdots \oplus \mathcal{O}_Y (-(m-1)E) $; for $X \in |\mathcal{O}_S (mH + f^{\ast}q))|$, where $q$ is a point on $Y$, $ \mathcal{E}^{\vee} \cong \mathcal{O}_Y (-E-q) \oplus \cdots \oplus \mathcal{O}_Y (-(m-1)E-q) $ holds. This decomposition enables us to compute the dimension of the space of global sections of the normal bundle of the embedding $X \subset \mathbb{P}^R$ induced by the tautological line bundle $|\mathcal{O}_S (H)|$, where $R = \dim |\mathcal{O}_S (H)|$. As an application, we construct new families of generically smooth components of the Hilbert scheme of curves, including components whose general points correspond to non-linearly normal curves, as well as nonreduced components.

We show that for two classes of $m$-secant curves $X \subset S$, with $m \geq 2$, where $f : S = \mathbb{P} (\mathcal{O}_Y \oplus \mathcal{O}_Y (E)) \to Y$ and $E$ is a non-special divisor on a smooth curve $Y$, the Tschirnhausen module $\mathcal{E}^{\vee}$ of the covering $φ= f_{|_X} : X \to Y$ decomposes completely as a direct sum of line bundles. Specifically, we prove that: for $X \in |\mathcal{O}_S (mH)|$, where $H$ denotes the tautological divisor on $S$, one has $ \mathcal{E}^{\vee} \cong \mathcal{O}_Y (-E) \oplus \cdots \oplus \mathcal{O}_Y (-(m-1)E) $; for $X \in |\mathcal{O}_S (mH + f^{\ast}q))|$, where $q$ is a point on $Y$, $ \mathcal{E}^{\vee} \cong \mathcal{O}_Y (-E-q) \oplus \cdots \oplus \mathcal{O}_Y (-(m-1)E-q) $ holds. This decomposition enables us to compute the dimension of the space of global sections of the normal bundle of the embedding $X \subset \mathbb{P}^R$ induced by the tautological line bundle $|\mathcal{O}_S (H)|$, where $R = \dim |\mathcal{O}_S (H)|$. As an application, we construct new families of generically smooth components of the Hilbert scheme of curves, including components whose general points correspond to non-linearly normal curves, as well as nonreduced components.
