Abstract

Let Cox (Sr) be the homogeneous coordinate ring of the blow-up Sr of P2 in r general points, i.e., a smooth Del Pezzo surface of degree 9 - r. We prove that for r ∈ {6, 7}, Proj (Cox (Sr)) can be embedded into Gr / Pr, where Gr is an algebraic group with root system given by the primitive Picard lattice of Sr and Pr ⊂ Gr is a certain maximal parabolic subgroup.
