Extract

In this paper we investigate the procedure of blowing up a non-normal variety V in its conductor ideal (denned in Section 1). If V is a hypersurface then corresponds to the subadjunction conditions of Italian algebraic geometry (see (4), section 15), and so we would expect the blow up of V in , denoted , to be closely connected with the normalization Ṽ.
