On the configurations of codimension two linear subspaces of ℙN with the Waldschmidt constant less than 2

Abstract

The purpose of this note is to generalize a result of [M. Dumnicki, T. Szemberg and H. Tutaj-Gasińska, Symbolic powers of planar point configurations II, J. Pure Appl. Alg. 220 (2016) 2001–2016] to higher-dimensional projective spaces and classify all configurations of [Formula: see text]-planes [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text] with the Waldschmidt constants less than two. We also determine some numerical and algebraic invariants of the defining ideals [Formula: see text] of these classes of configurations, i.e. the resurgence, the minimal free resolution and the regularity of [Formula: see text], as well as the Hilbert function of [Formula: see text].
