On Symmetric Monomial curves in P^3

Authors: MESUT ŞAHİN

Abstract: In this paper, we give an elementary proof of the fact that symmetric arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay monomial curves are set-theoretic complete intersections. The proof is constructive and provides the equations of the surfaces cutting out the monomial curve.

Keywords: Set-theoretic complete intersections, monomial curves.
