On the homology of two-dimensional elimination

Abstract: We study birational maps with empty base locus defined by almost complete intersection ideals. Birationality is shown to be expressed by the equality of two Chern numbers. We provide a relatively effective method of their calculation in terms of certain Hilbert coefficients. In dimension two the structure of the irreducible ideals leads naturally to the calculation of Sylvester determinants via a computer-assisted method. For degree at most 5 we produce the full set of defining equations of the base ideal. The… Show more

“…2 Two comments are in order here. First, the hypothesis V (U 0 , U 1 , U 2 ) = ∅, implicitly assumed in [HSV08,Proposition 4.9], is not superfluous since otherwise there exist some counterexamples. Also, we mention that this latter condition corresponds to the geometric property that there is no singular point on the curve C of multiplicity d − 2, the maximum possible value for a singular point on C in this case by [SCG07,Theorem 3].…”

“…In Section 1 we recall the implicitization problem and the Rees algebra. In Section 2 we provide an algorithm of finding the minimal generators of K , the kernel of the map h, and prove a conjecture of Hong, Simis and Vasconcelos [12]. In Section 3 we relate our results to the theory of adjoint curves and prove a special case of a conjecture of Cox [6].…”

“…Also, we return to this question in Section 6. This question is of interest because there is much recent work concerning the equations that define the Rees algebra of ideals which are primary to the maximal ideal; see, for example, [14,10,6,11]. The driving force behind this work is the desire to understand the singularities of parameterized curves or surfaces; see [19,9,7,2,8] and especially [11].…”
