Complete caps in projective space which are disjoint from a subspace of codimension two

چکیده
Working over the field of order 2 we consider those complete caps which are disjoint from some codimension 2 subspace of projective space. We derive restrictive conditions which such a cap must satisfy in order to be complete. Using these conditions we obtain explicit descriptions of complete caps which do not meet every hyperplane in at least 5 points. In particular, we determine the set of cardinalities of all such complete caps in all dimensions.

Minimal Links and a Result of Gaeta
If V is an equidimensional codimension c subscheme of an n-dimensional projective space, and V is linked to V ′ by a complete intersection X, then we say that V is minimally linked to V ′ if X is a codimension c complete intersection of smallest degree containing V . Gaeta showed that if V is any arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay (ACM) subscheme of codimension two then there is a finite sequence of...
متن کاملComplete ( q 2 + q + 8 ) / 2 - caps in the projective space PG ( 3 , q ) with odd prime q ≡ 2 ( mod 3 )
Abstract. In the projective space PG(3, q) with odd prime q ≡ 2 (mod 3), q ≥ 11, a new infinite family of complete (q + q + 8)/2-caps is constructed. It gives a new lower bound on the second largest size m′2(3, q) of complete caps: (q 2 + q + 8)/2 ≤ m ′2(3, q). The structure of one of the two existing complete 20-caps in PG(3, 5) is described. The new upper bounds on the smallest size of comple...
متن کاملInvolutions Fixing Rp
This paper studies the equivariant cobordism classification of all involutions fixing a disjoint union of an odd-dimensional real projective space RP with its normal bundle nonbounding and a Dold manifold P (h, i) with h > 0 and i > 0. For odd h, the complete analysis of the equivariant cobordism classes of such involutions is given except that the upper and lower bounds on codimension of P (h,...
متن کاملOne-point extensions of locally compact paracompact spaces
A space $Y$ is called an {em extension} of a space $X$, if $Y$ contains $X$ as a dense subspace. Two extensions of $X$ are said to be {em equivalent}, if there is a homeomorphism between them which fixes $X$ point-wise. For two (equivalence classes of) extensions $Y$ and $Y'$ of $X$ let $Yleq Y'$, if there is a continuous function of $Y'$ into $Y$ which fixes $X$ point-wise. An extension $Y$ ...
متن کاملLiaison Addition and the Structure of a Gorenstein Liaison Class
We study the concept of liaison addition for codimension two subschemes of an arithmetically Gorenstein projective scheme. We show how it relates to liaison and biliaison classes of subschemes and use it to investigate the structure of Gorenstein liaison equivalence classes, extending the known theory for complete intersection liaison of codimension two subschemes. In particular, we show that o...
