Abstract

We study the Hilbert function of general unions of non-special embeddings of general curves in projective spaces, mostly in \mathbb{P}^4, the case of a general non-special curve of prescribed degree and genus and a rational curve of prescribed degree. We discuss several examples and suggest some extensions.

Keywords:  curve in projective spaces; postulation; Hilbert scheme; Hilbert function.
