Some behaviour can be seen as desirable yet be statistically infrequent, e.g. creative genius. Also there are behaviours that are so common that they are regarded as being statistically frequent, yet are cat...
متن کاملNormality, Projective Normality and Egz Theorem
In this note, we prove that the projective normality of (P(V )/G,L), the celebrated theorem of Erdös-Ginzburg-Ziv and normality of an affine semigroup are all equivalent, where V is a finite dimensional representation of a finite cyclic group G over C and L is the descent of the line bundle O(1)⊗|G|.
