Abstract

A k\Bbbk-configuration of type (d1,,ds)(d_1,\dots,d_s) is a specific set of points in P2\mathbb P^2 that has a number of algebraic and geometric properties. For example, the graded Betti numbers and Hilbert functions of all k\Bbbk-configurations in P2\mathbb P^2 are determined by the type (d1,,ds)(d_1,\dots,d_s). However the Waldschmidt constant of a k\Bbbk-configuration in P2\mathbb P^2 of the same type may vary. In this paper, we find that the Waldschmidt constant of a k\Bbbk-configuration in P2\mathbb P^2 of type (d1,,ds)(d_1,\dots,d_s) with d1s1d_1\ge s\ge 1 is ss. We also find the Waldschmidt constant of a standard k\Bbbk-configuration in P2\mathbb P^2 of type (a,b,c)(a,b,c) with a1a\ge 1 except the type (2,3,5)(2,3,5). In particular, we prove that the Waldschmidt constant of a standard k\Bbbk-configuration in P2\mathbb P^2 of type (1,b,c)(1,b,c) with c2b+2c\ge 2b+2 does not depend on cc.
