Abstract
Regarding the generating structure of the homogeneous ideal of a projective variety , we define the rank index of to be the smallest integer such that can be generated by quadratic polynomials of rank at most . Recently it is shown that every Veronese embedding has rank index if the base field has characteristic . In this paper, we introduce some basic ways of how to calculate the rank index and find its values when is some other classical projective varieties such as rational normal scrolls, del Pezzo varieties, Segre varieties and the Pl\"{u}cker embedding of the Grassmannian of lines.
