Abstract

Let II be a homogeneous ideal in R=K[x0,,xn]R=\mathbb K[x_0,\ldots,x_n], such that R/IR/I is an Artinian Gorenstein ring. A famous theorem of Macaulay says that in this instance II is the ideal of polynomial differential operators with constant coefficients that cancel the same homogeneous polynomial FF. A major question related to this result is to be able to describe FF in terms of the ideal II. In this note we give a partial answer to this question, by analyzing the case when II is the Artinian reduction of the ideal of a reduced (arithmetically) Gorenstein zero-dimensional scheme ΓPn\Gamma\subset\mathbb P^n. We obtain FF from the coordinates of the points of Γ\Gamma.

Comments

8 pages. From the previous version the following changes took place: changed the title, corrected some typos, removed the section about the comparison between inverse systems and XL-algorithm, since this comparison does not improve neither of the two methods of solving systems of polynomial equations
