Bertini-type theorem for reducible schemes

Let $X \subset \mathbb{P}^n$ be a reducible, projective subscheme. Assume that $X$ is reduced (meaning that every local ring is reduced i.e., does not contain nilpotent element). Denote by $S_d$ the l …

Generalization of Hilbert/Quot schemes

For some positive integer $n$, recall that the Quot scheme $Quot(\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^n})$ parametrizes ideal sheaves of subschemes in $\mathbb{P}^n$. As far as I understand (from a previous post) …
