Popis: Given a zero-dimensional subscheme X of P 2, we bound the number of points in the support of X which have maximal degree in X . For reduced schemes X , this yields a lower bound for the colength of the conductor F of the homogeneous coordinate ring R of X in its integral closure R. This bound is attained by Castelnuovo sets for which we calculate l ( R F ) explicitly. Using the canonical decomposition of X , we also show a sharp upper bound for l ( R F ) . Applications include estimates for the singularity degree l ( R R ) and the superabundance l ( R R ) — l ( R F ) of X .
