Abstract

We give necessary and sufficient criteria for a smooth Enriques surface S ⊂ ℙr to be scheme-theoretically an intersection of quadrics. Moreover we prove in many cases that, when S contains plane cubic curves, the intersection of the quadrics containing S is the union of S and the 2-planes spanned by the plane cubic curves. We also give a new (very quick) proof of the projective normality of S if deg S ≥ 12.
