The irregularity of ruled surfaces in three dimensional projective space.

Luis Giraldo, Ignacio Sols (1998)

Collectanea Mathematica

Similarity:

Let S be a ruled surface in P3 with no multiple generators. Let d and q be nonnegative integers. In this paper we determine which pairs (d,q) correspond to the degree and irregularity of a ruled surface, by considering these surfaces as curves in a smooth quadric hypersurface in P5.

Some examples of Gorenstein liaison in codimension three.

Robin Hartshorne (2002)

Collectanea Mathematica

Similarity:

Gorenstein liaison seems to be the natural notion to generalize to higher codimension the well-known results about liaison of varieties of codimension 2 in projective space. In this paper we study points in P3 and curves in P4 in an attempt to see how far typical codimension 2 results will extend. While the results are satisfactory for small degree, we find in each case examples where we cannot decide the outcome. This examples are candidates for counterexamples to the hoped-for extensions...

Geometry of arithmetically Gorenstein curves in P.

Robin Hartshorne (2004)

Collectanea Mathematica

Similarity:

We characterize the postulation character of arithmetically Gorenstein curves in P. We give conditions under which the curve can be realized in the form mH - K on some ACM surface. Finally, we complement a theorem by Watanabe by showing that any general arithmetically Gorenstein curve in P with arbitrary fixed postulation character can be obtained from a line by a series of ascending complete-intersection biliaisons.

On the gonality of curves in 𝐏 n

Edoardo Ballico (1997)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

Here we study the gonality of several projective curves which arise in a natural way (e.gċurves with maximal genus in 𝐏 n , curves with given degree d and genus g for all possible d , g if n = 3 and with large g for arbitrary ( d , g , n ) ).
