Set theoretic equation for Veronese varieties

Consider the embedding $f:\mathbb{P}^n\rightarrow\mathbb{P}^N$ induced by the complete linear system of degree $d$ hypersurfaces of $\mathbb{P}^n$. Its image $V_{n,\,d}$ is degree $d$ Veronese variety ...

Intersection numbers in $\mathbb{P}^1$-bundles

Let $\mathcal{E}$ be a rank two vector bundle on $\mathbb{P}^2$ fitting in the following exact sequence $$0\rightarrow \mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^2}\rightarrow \mathcal{E}\rightarrow \mathcal{I}_p(-1)\...

Square root of a line bundle up to a finite surjective morphism

Given a projective variety $X$ over a field of any characteristic, consider a line bundle $\mathcal{L}$ over $X$. The existence of a line bundle $\mathcal{L}^\prime$ with an isomorphism ${\mathcal{L}^...

Divisors on projective bundles

Let $\pi:X = \mathbb{P}(\mathcal{E})\rightarrow\mathbb{P}^n$ be a projective bundle, where $\mathcal{E}$ is a rank two vector bundle over $\mathbb{P}^n$. If $n = 0$ then $X = \mathbb{P}^1$, and for $n ...

sections of vector bundles transversal to a divisor

Let $X$ a smooth projective curve over $\mathbb{C}$, $S$ a finite subscheme of $X$. $E$ a vector bundle over $X$ with a divisor $D$. We look at the sections $A:=H^{0}(X,E)$ with $\deg E$ big enough. ...
