Subspace Arrangements as Generalized Star Configurations
  In these notes we show that any projective subspace arrangement can be realized as a generalized star configuration variety. This type of interpolation result may be useful in designing linear codes with prescribed codewords of minimum weight, as well as in answering a couple of questions asked by the author in previous work, about the number of equations needed to define a generalized star configuration.
