چکیده
Here we study (in positive characteristic) integral curves X ⊂ Pr with secant degree one, i.e., for which a general P ∈ Seck−1(X) is in a unique k-secant (k − 1)-dimensional linear subspace.

Generation and Syzygies of the First Secant Variety
We show that the secant variety to a smooth variety embedded by a sufficiently positive line bundle satisfies N3,p. For smooth curves, we find the effective bound of degree at least max ̆ 3g + 3 + p, 1 2 (7g + 4 + p) ̄
متن کاملLine Arrangements Modeling Curves of High Degree: Equations, Syzygies and Secants
We study curves consisting of unions of projective lines whose intersections are given by graphs. Under suitable hypotheses on the graph, these so-called graph curves can be embedded in projective space as line arrangements. We discuss property Np for these embeddings and are able to produce products of linear forms that generate the ideal in certain cases. We also briefly discuss questions reg...
متن کاملOn Secant Varieties of Compact Hermitian Symmetric Spaces
We show that the secant varieties of rank three compact Hermitian symmetric spaces in their minimal homogeneous embeddings are normal, with rational singularities. We show that their ideals are generated in degree three with one exception, the secant variety of the 21-dimensional spinor variety in P, whose ideal is generated in degree four. We also discuss the coordinate ring of secant varietie...
متن کاملPfaffian Presentations of Elliptic Normal Curves
We investigate certain alternating matrices of linear forms whose Pfaffians generate the homogeneous ideal of an elliptic normal curve, or one of its higher secant varieties.
متن کاملSmooth Projective Varieties with Extremal or next to Extremal Curvilinear Secant Subspaces
We intend to give a classification of smooth nondegenerate projective varieties admitting extremal or next to extremal curvilinear secant subspaces. Gruson, Lazarsfeld and Peskine classified all projective integral curves with extremal secant lines. On the other hand, if a locally Cohen-Macaulay variety Xn ⊂ Pn+e of degree d meets with a linear subspace L of dimension β at finite points, then l...
