Abstract
We exhibit, for each even degree, a ternary form of rank strictly greater than the maximum rank of monomials. Together with an earlier result in the odd case, this gives the lower bound for , where denotes the maximum rank of degree forms in variables with coefficients in an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero.
