The multiple monomial scheme conjecture

About 24 years old · traced to

Let X=PN⊂PN+MX=\mathbb{P}^N\subset\mathbb{P}^{N+M} be a linear subspace of dimension N≥6N\geq 6. Let WW be a Cohen–Macaulay multiple monomial scheme with reduced subscheme Wred⁡=XW_{\operatorname{red}}=X, and let YY be a Cohen–Macaulay multiple scheme satisfying

IWIX⊂IY⊂IW\mathcal{I}_W\mathcal{I}_X\subset\mathcal{I}_Y\subset\mathcal{I}_W

and deg⁡Y=deg⁡W+2\operatorname{deg}Y=\operatorname{deg}W+2. The multiple monomial scheme conjecture. There exists a Cohen–Macaulay scheme ZZ of degree deg⁡W+1\operatorname{deg}W+1 such that

W⊂Z⊂Y.W\subset Z\subset Y.

The source presents this as a more general multiple-structure formulation equivalent to Hartshorne's conjecture; its resolution is not established by the supplied text.
