Apr 20, 2014 at 12:46 comment added meh Mine too :) . I think abx took the time to think out the question more thoroughly.
Apr 19, 2014 at 14:56 comment added Donu Arapura OK, yes, my 2nd sentence was not carefully formulated. I was thinking of a scenario along the lines of abx 2).
Apr 19, 2014 at 14:37 comment added Allen Knutson I don't understand the two comments above. Take $\mathcal O(1)$ on $\mathbb P^2$ and restrict to a nodal cubic $X$. Then $f^* L$ is degree $3$ on $\tilde X$, hence very ample, no?

Apr 19, 2014 at 12:56 comment added meh Never, sort of definitionally, unless $X$ is normal . It does stay ample.
Apr 19, 2014 at 12:55 comment added Donu Arapura Not in general, because the sections of $f^*L$ need not separate points. E.g. take a nodal curve in the plane, and then normalize.
