To do this, we first generalize the notion of a matrix, its ideal of 2x2 minors to that of a box-shaped matrix. Our work completes previous works of Geramita and Gimigliano.Commutative AlgebraAlgebraic Geometry13C40, 14J26, 14E25Box-shaped matrices and the defining ideal of certain blowup surfacestext
