Abstract:

This paper is devoted to the study of the next extremal case for a Castelnuovo-type bound $\mathrm {reg} V \le \lceil (\deg V - 1)/ \operatorname {codim} V \rceil + 1$ of the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity for a nondegenerate Buchsbaum variety $V$. A Buchsbaum variety with the maximal regularity is known to be a divisor on a variety of minimal degree if the degree of the variety is large enough. We show that a Buchsbaum variety satisfying $\mathrm {reg} V = \lceil (\deg V - 1)/ \operatorname {codim} V \rceil$ is a divisor on a Del Pezzo variety if $\deg V \gg 0$.
