Abstract
Let be a codimension 1 subvariety of dimension of a variety of minimal degree . If is subcanonical with Gorenstein canonical singularities admitting a crepant resolution, then is Arithmetically Gorenstein and we characterise such subvarieties of via apolarity as those whose apolar hypersurfaces are Fermat.
