Abstract: A closed subscheme of codimension two TsubsetP2 is a quasi complete intersection (q.c.i.) of type (a,b,c) if there exists a surjective morphism mathcalO(−a)oplusmathcalO(−b)oplusmathcalO(−c)omathcalIT. We give bounds on deg(T) in function of a,b,c and r, the least degree of a syzygy between the three polynomials defining the q.c.i. As a by-product we recover a theorem of du Plessis-Wall on the global Tjurina number of plane curves and some other related results.


The author considers closed subschemes \(T\) of codimension two in the projective plane. Given homogeneous polynomials \(F_a\), \(F_b\) and \(F_c\), of degrees \(a, b, c\) in \(k[x_0, \dots, x_n]\), where \(k\) is an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, the ideal \(J = (F_a, F_b, F_c)\) is said to be a \textit{quasi complete intersection} if we obtain an exact sequence \(0\rightarrow E \rightarrow\mathcal{O}(c-a)\oplus\mathcal{O}(c-b)\oplus\mathcal{O}\rightarrow\mathcal{I}_T(c)\rightarrow0\), where \(\mathcal{I}_T\) is the ideal sheaf of the codimension two subscheme \(\mathcal{T}\) and \(E\) a rank two vector bundle. Furthermore, if we let \(t = h^0\) \((\mathcal{O_T})\) and \(r=\min [k|h^0(E(k))\neq 0]\), in the main theorem of the present paper the author proves several bounds of \(t\) expressed in terms of \(a, b, c\) and \(r\). For \(C\) a reduced singular plane curve and \(\Sigma\) the Jacobian singular scheme of \(C\), the global Tjurina number is defined to be \(\tau(C)=h^0(\mathcal{O}_\Sigma)\). The author shows that his main theorem implies the theorem of du Plessis and Wall on the global Tjurina number of plane curves [\textit{A. A. Du Plessis} and \textit{C. T. C. Wall}, Math. Proc. Camb.
