Abstract

Let \({\mathscr {A}}=m_1p_1+ \cdots +m_np_n\) be a fat point subscheme of \({\mathbb {P}}^2\), and let \(I({\mathscr {A}})\), which is called a fat point ideal, be its corresponding ideal in \({\mathbb {K}}[{\mathbb {P}}^2]\). In this note, we identify those fat point ideals in \({\mathbb {K}} [{\mathbb {P}}^2]\) for which their Waldschmidt constants are less than 5 / 2.
