Cremona transformations and syzygies (Q1188014): Difference between revisions

The authors generalize first (see theorems (2.18) and (3.2)) results of \textit{B. Crauder} and \textit{S. Katz} [Am. J. Math. 111, No. 2, 289-307 (1989; Zbl 0699.14015)], where a classification was given for Cremona transformations with smooth irreducible base locus of dimension at most 2. The main idea used throughout the present paper is the idea (formulated in proposition (1.2)) to discover a Cremona transformation from its syzygy matrix; see the series of examples in sections 2-5. And in section 5 an infinite family of Cremona transformations with arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay base locus is constructed seizing on most of the examples (see sections 3-4) of the paper.
