Jun 11, 2018 at 16:25 comment added Sándor Kovács @Ritwik: I didn't say that very ample is enough. I said that very ample and giving a projectively normal embedding is.
Jun 10, 2018 at 19:35 comment added abx No, definitely not. For a simple example, take a curve $C$ of genus $g\geq 4$ and a general line bundle $L$ on $C$ of degree $g+3$. Then it is standard to prove that the linear system $|L|$ embeds $C$ into $\mathbb{P}^3$. But $h^0(L^2)= g+7$ is greater than $\dim \mathsf{S}^2H^0(L)=10$.
Jun 10, 2018 at 18:14 comment added Ritwik I actually meant to say Very Ample (i.e. the Kodiara map from S to P(H^0(L)^dual) is an embedding ). Are you saying that the statement is true when L is very ample (as opposed to just ample)?
