The $K$-rank of a binary form $f$ in $K[x,y],~K\subseteq \mathbb{C},$ is the smallest number of $d$-th powers of linear forms over $K$ of which $f$ is a $K$-linear combination. We provide lower bounds for the $\mathbb{C}$-rank (Waring rank)…

In this paper we compute the Waring rank of any polynomial of the form F=M_1+...+M_r, where the M_i are pairwise coprime monomials, i.e., GCD(M_i,M_j)=1 for i not j. In particular, we determine the Waring rank of any monomial. As an…
