Counterexamples to the $I^{(3)}\subset I^2$ containment

Abstract

We show that in general the third symbolic power of a radical ideal of points in the complex projective plane is not contained in the second usual power of that ideal. This answers in negative a question asked by Huneke and generalized by Harbourne.
