Let V be an irreducible non degenerate variety in Pn; a classical geometric result says that degree (V) ≥ codim V + 1 and, if equality holds, V is said to be of minimal degree. Varieties of minimal degree has been classified by Del Pezzo and Bertini and they all are intersections of quadrics. The local version of this result is due to J. Sally who proved that if is a regular local ring and is a Cohen-Macaulay local ring of minimal multiplicity, according to the bound e(R) ≥ height (I) + 1 given by Abhyankar, then the tangent cone of R is intersection of quadrics and it is Cohen-Macaulay.
