On the nonemptiness of the adjoint linear system of a hyperplane section of a threefold.
The structure of 3-folds in P6 which are generally linked via a complete intersection (f1,f2,f3) to 3-folds in P6 of degree d ≤ 5 is determined. We also give three new examples of smooth 3-folds in P6 of degree 11 and genus 9. These examples are obtained via liaison. The first two are 3-folds linked via a complete intersection (2,3,3) to 3-folds in P6 of degree 7: (i) the hyperquadric fibration over P1 and (ii) the scroll over P2. The third example is Pfaffian linked to a 3-dimensional quadric in...
