Postulation of general unions of lines and decorated lines


Abstract


A +line A \subset \mathbb {P}^r , r \geq 3 , is the scheme A = L \cup v with L a line and v a tangent vector of \mathbb {P}^r supported by a point of L, but not tangent to L. Here we prove that a general disjoint union of lines and +lines has the expected Hilbert function.
