Let $I vartriangleleft k[x_0,...,x_n]$ be a homogeneous ideal, such that $V_{mathbb P^n }(I)$ is a variety (that is, an irreducible closed set in the projective space $mathbb P^n$).
Must $V_{ mathbb P^{n+1} }(I) subseteq mathbb P^{n+1}$ be a projective variety?

What is your definition of projective variety?

@random123 A projective variety $X$ is a projective algebraic set $X=V_{mathbb P^n} (I)$, where $I subseteq k[x_0, ...,x_n]$ is a homogeneous ideal, such that $X$ is an irreducible topological space (via the subspace topology that is induced by the Zariski-topology on $mathbb P^n$.

What do you mean by the $I$, when you write $V_{P^{n+1}}(I)$. Does it mean the ideal generated by the set $I$ in $k[x_0, dots x_{n+1}]$? I am assuming $k[x_0, dots x_n] subset k[x_0,dots , x_{n}, x_{n+1}]$.

yes. In particular, the ideal generated by $I$ will be homogeneous again, since $I$ was generated by homogeneous polynomials

But isn't that the definition of a projective variety? That it is of the form $V(I)$ for a homogeneous ideal I.
