Abstract

Some codimension 2 projective complete intersections are related to local hypersurface singularities. Necessary and sufficient conditions are given such that the singularities obtained are isolated. Incidentally we prove the finitude of the tangency set of two equidimensional smooth complete intersections with distinct multidegrees.
