In this paper we study the $X$-rank of points with respect to smooth linearly normal curves $X\subset \PP n$ of genus $g$ and degree $n+g$. We prove that, for such a curve $X$, under certain circumstances, the $X$-rank of a general point of…

A CR generic real analytic CR manifold M carries two families of Segre varieties and conjugate Segre varieties. We observe in this article that their complexifications give rise to two families of foliations of the complexification of M…

Let $S$ be a finite subset of ${\mathbb R}^2 \setminus (0,0)$. Generally, one would expect the pattern of lines $Ax + By = 1$, where $(A, B) \in S$ to contain polygons of all shapes and sizes. We show, however, that when $S$ is a…

Given a flat, projective morphism $Y \to T$ from an equidimensional scheme to a nonsingular curve and a subscheme $Z$ of $Y$, we give conditions under which specialization of the Segre class $s(N_{Z}Y)$ of the normal cone of $Z$ in $Y$…

We consider the most common variants of linear regression, including Ridge, Lasso and Support-vector regression, in a setting where the learner is allowed to observe only a fixed number of attributes of each example at training time. We…

In this paper we prove that a planar set $\mathcal{X}$ of at most $mn-1$ points, where $m \le n$, is $\kappa$-dependent, if and only if there exists a number r, $1 \le r \le m-1$, and an essentially $\kappa$-dependent subset $\mathcal{Y}…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve, with identity $O$, and let $C$ be a cyclic subgroup of odd order $N$, over an algebraically closed field $k$ with $\operatorname{char} k \nmid N$. For $P \in C$, let $s_P$ be a rational function with divisor $N…

Segre classes encode essential intersection-theoretic information concerning vector bundles and embeddings of schemes. In this paper we survey a range of applications of Segre classes to the definition and study of invariants of singular…

We study subsets S of curves X whose double structure does not impose independent conditions to a linear series L, but there are divisors D in |L| singular at all points of S. These subsets form the Terracini loci of X. We investigate…

Considerations based on the known relation between different characteristic classes for singular hypersufaces suggest that a form of the `inclusion-exclusion' principle may hold for Segre classes. We formulate and prove such a principle for…
