Abstract
In this article we find upper bounds on the Rao function for space curves i n terms of the degree, genus and the minimal degree s of a surface which co ntains the curve. These bounds are shown to be sharp for s less than or equ al to 4. This paper is dedicated to David Buchsbaum on the occasion of his 70th birthday. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
