Rao [see MR 83i:14025] for arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay, self-linked subschemes of codimension 2 in the projective n-space P, we give a characterization of self-linked pure subschemes of codimension 2 in P satisfying a necessary parity condition, in characteristic different from 2. We make use of the theory of quadratic sheaves described in a previous paper of the authors [see MR 99h:14044].AmS-ppt, 12 pages, no figuresAlgebraic GeometryCommutative Algebra14M06; 14M07; 13C40text
