Extract

1. In this paper we find explicitly the base for the prime ideal associated with any irreducible Vd−1 on a Segre variety, or a Veronesean variety, Vd. This work extends that of an earlier paper (1) in which the base was found when the Vd−1 is a complete intersection of Vd with one primal. As particular examples we can write down the base for any irreducible curve on a quadric surface, a Veronese surface or a Del Pezzo surface. We also show how the base for any prime ideal changes under a Veronesean transformation.
