Abstract

We study the lowest dimensional open case of the question whether every arithmetically Cohen--Macaulay subscheme of PN\mathbb{P}^N is glicci, that is, whether every zero-scheme in P3\mathbb{P}^3 is glicci. We show that a set of n56n \geq 56 points in general position in \PP3\PP^3 admits no strictly descending Gorenstein liaison or biliaison. In order to prove this theorem, we establish a number of important results about arithmetically Gorenstein zero-schemes in P3\mathbb{P}^3.
