Degenerations of scrolls to unions of planes
Abstract
In this paper we study degenerations of scrolls to union of planes, a problem already considered by G. Zappa in 1940-50. We prove, using techniques different from the ones of Zappa, a degeneration result to union of planes with the mildest possible singularities, for linearly normal scrolls of genus $g$ and of degree $d$ larger than $2g+4$ in $\Pp^{d-2g+1}$. We also study properties of components of the Hilbert scheme parametrizing scrolls. Finally we review Zappa's original approach.
