Abstract

A primitive multiple scheme is a Cohen-Macaulay scheme X\bf X such that the associated reduced scheme X=XredX={\bf X}_{red} is smooth, irreducible, and that X\bf X can be locally embedded in a smooth variety of dimension dim(X)+1\dim(X)+1. If IX{\bf I}_X is the ideal sheaf of XX, L=IX/IX2L={\bf I}_X/{\bf I}_X^2 is a line bundle on XX, called the associated line bundle of X\bf X. The simplest example is the trivial primitive multiple scheme of multiplicity nn associated to a line bundle LL on XX: it is the nn-th infinitesimal neighborhood of XX, embedded in the line bundle LL^* by the zero section. A subscheme ZZ of X{\bf X} is called good if ZredZ_{red} is smooth and connected, and if d=codim(Z)d={\rm codim}(Z) and IZ,X{\bf I}_{Z,{\bf X}} is the ideal sheaf of ZZ, then for every closed point zZz\in Z, IZ,X,z{\bf I}_{Z,{\bf X},z} can be generated by dd elements. Two kinds of subschemes ZZ of X{\bf X} will be considered: the closed smooth subschemes of XX, seen as subschemes of X\bf X, and the good subschemes. In the two cases, the blowing-up BZ,X{\bf B}_{Z,{\bf X}} of X{\bf X} along ZZ is a primitive multiple scheme of multiplicity nn, and its underlying smooth scheme is the blowing-up BZred,X{\bf B}_{Z_{red},X} of XX along ZredZ_{red}. Additional results are obtained in the case of hypersurfaces or points of XX. We treat the case of X=P2X={\rm P}_2, with ZZ a single point PP. Let p:P~2P2p:\widetilde{{\rm P}}_2\to{\rm P}_2 be the blowing-up of P2{\rm P}_2 along PP. We find all primitive double schemes X\bf X, Y\bf Y, with Yred=P~2{\bf Y}_{red}=\widetilde{{\rm P}}_2, Xred=P2{\bf X}_{red}={\rm P}_2, such that there is a morphism YX{\rm Y}\to{\rm X} inducing pp and an isomorphism Y\p1(P)X\{P}{\bf Y}\backslash p^{-1}(P)\to{\bf X} \backslash\{P\}. We obtain in this way the list of all K3-carpets with underlying smooth variety P~2\widetilde{{\rm P}}_2.
