Abstract
Let I be a height two perfect ideal in the polynomial ring k[x1, ..., xd] satisfying the Gd condition. Suppose I admits a homogeneous presentation matrix composed of linear columns except for one column of degree n. In this setting, we give two descriptions of the ideal A defining the Rees algebra Rees(I) and if in addition I is generated by d+1 elements, we give an explicit generating set for A.
