Abstract

For a very ample line bundle L on a projective scheme X, let φLℓ : X {right arrow, hooked} P H0 (X, L), ℓ ≥ 1, be the embedding defined by the complete linear series | L |. In this paper we study the problem how the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of φL (X) effects on the defining equations of φLℓ (X) and the syzygies among them. We show that if φL (X) ⊂ P H0 (X, L) is m-regular, then (X, L) satisfies property N2 ℓ - m + 1 for frac(m, 2) ≤ ℓ ≤ m - 2, and (X, L) satisfies property N for all ℓ ≥ m - 1.
