We use the fractional Riemann-Roch formula of Fletcher and Reid to write out explicit formulas for the Hilbert series P( t)in a number of cases of interest for singular surfaces (see Lemma 2.1 )a nd 3-folds. If X is a Q-Fano 3-fold and S ∈| −KX | a K3 surface in its anticanonical system (or the general elephant of X), polarised with D = S (−KX ), we determine the relation between PX (t) and PS,D(t). We discuss the denominator � (1 − t ai ) of P( t) and, in particular, the question of how to choose a reasonably small denominator. This idea has applications to finding K3 surfaces and Fano 3-folds whose corresponding graded rings have small codimension. Most of the information about the anticanonical ring of a Fano 3-fold or K3 surface is contained in its Hilbert series. We believe that, by using information on Hilbert series, the classification of Q-Fano 3-folds is too close. Finding K3 surfaces are important because they occur as the general elephant of a Q-Fano 3-fold.","PeriodicalId":39893,"journal":{"name":"INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MATHEMATICS AND MATHEMATICAL SCIENCES","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2003-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1155/S0161171203107090","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"64972842","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We study the Bayesian estimation problem of θ under squared error loss function based on X, as well as some additional data available from other similar experiments according to an empirical Bayes structure. In a recent paper, Samaniego and Neath (1996) investigated the questions of whether, and when, this information can be exploited so as to provide a better estimate of θ in the current experiment. They constructed a Bayes empirical Bayes estimator that is superior to the original Bayes estimator, based only on the current observation X for sampling situations involving exponential families-conjugate prior pair. In this paper, we present an improved Bayes empirical Bayes estimator having a smaller Bayes risk than that of Samaniego and Neath’s estimator. We further observe that our estimator is superior to the original Bayes estimator in more general situations than those of the exponential families-conjugate prior combination.","PeriodicalId":39893,"journal":{"name":"INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MATHEMATICS AND MATHEMATICAL SCIENCES","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2003-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1155/S0161171203110046","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"64973316","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
