Hilbert functions and tensor analysis

Abstract

We show how well known tools of algebraic geometry for the study of finite sets can be fruitfully applied to the study of Waring decompositions of symmetric tensors (forms). We mainly focus on the uniqueness of a given decomposition (the identifiability problem), and show how, in some cases, one can effectively determine the uniqueness even in some range in which the Kruskal's criterion does not apply.
