Abstract

We show how the minimal free resolution of a set of $n$ points in general position in projective space of dimension $n-2$ explicitly determines structure constants for a ring of rank $n$. This generalises previously known constructions of Levi–Delone–Faddeev and Bhargava in the cases $n = 3, 4, 5$.
