GENERATORS I. First lets discuss generators of linear ideals.
TAKE 1. We have
I = hx1 + x2 + x6 , x2 x3 + x5 , x3 + x4 i
First observation:
support of generators of I: 126, 235, 34
complements: 345, 146, 1256 are lines (hyperplanes!)

What are the linear relations (syzygies) among them? Here are two:
y2 y5 (x3 y4 + y3 x4 ) + y4 (x2 y3 y5 y2 x3 y5 + y2 y3 x5 ) y3 (x2 y4 y5 + y2 x4 y5 + y2 y4 x5 ) = 0
(x2 y5 +y2 x5 )(x3 y4 +y3 x4 )x4 (x2 y3 y5 y2 x3 y5 +y2 y3 x5 )x3 (x2 y4 y5 +y2 x4 y5 +y2 y4 x5 ) = 0
But there are seven more! How to describe them? Organize them?
Hint: these two have support 2345 whose complement is 16, a point.
