Waring's problem has a long history in additive number theory. In its original form it deals with the representability of every positive integer as sum of $k$-th powers with integer $k$. Instead of these powers we deal with…
A generalisation of Waring's problem, considered first by Arkhipov and Karatsuba, is the question of representing not an integer, but a given polynomial, as a sum of powers of linear polynomials. We investigate a related problem and prove a…
The Waring problem of forms concerns the expression of homogeneous multivariate polynomials as sums of powers of linear forms. This paper focuses on complex binary forms, and we solve the Waring problem for them using basic tools in algebra…
In this paper we settle some polynomial identity which provides a family of explicit Waring decompositions of any monomial $X_0^{a_0}X_1^{a_1}\cdots X_n^{a_n}$ over a field $\Bbbk$. This gives an upper bound for the Waring rank of a given…
We reconsider the classical problem of representing a finite number of forms of degree d in n+1 variables as sums of powers of linear forms. We define a geometric construct called a `grove', which, in a number of cases allows us to…
We compute the equation of the 7-secant variety to the Veronese variety (P^4,O(3)), its degree is 15. This is the last missing invariant in the Alexander-Hirschowitz classification. It gives the condition to express a homogeneous cubic…
A Waring decomposition of a (homogeneous) polynomial f is a minimal sum of powers of linear forms expressing f. Under certain conditions, such a decomposition is unique. We discuss some algorithms to compute the Waring decomposition, which…
The generalized Waring problem asks exactly which positive integers cannot be expressed as the sum of $j$ positive $k$-th powers? Using computational techniques, this paper refines an approach introduced by Zenkin, establishes results for…
Here we address a Waring type problem for partially symmetric tensors, extending previous work by Massimiliano Mella in the totally symmetric case of forms. In particular, we provide an explicit answer in lower dimensional cases.
A Waring decomposition of a polynomial is an expression of the polynomial as a sum of powers of linear forms, where the number of summands is minimal possible. We prove that any Waring decomposition of a monomial is obtained from a complete…
This work is a modern revisitation of a classical paper by Alessandro Terracini, going back to 1915, which suggests an elementary but powerful method for studing Grassmann defective varieties. In particular, the case of Veronese surfaces is…
Waring problem for homogeneus forms asks for additive decomposition of a form $f$ into powers of linear forms. A classical problem is to determine when such a decomposition is unique. In this paper I answer this question when the degree of…

We describe a new method to determine the minimality and identifiability of a Waring decomposition $A$ of a specific form (symmetric tensor) $T$ in three variables. Our method, which is based on the Hilbert function of $A$, can distinguish…
Let $F$ be a homogeneous form of degree $d$ in $n$ variables. A Waring decomposition of $F$ is a way to express $F$ as a sum of $d^{th}$ powers of linear forms. In this paper we consider the decompositions of a form as a sum of expressions,…
We investigate the existence of representations of every large positive integer as a sum of $k$-th powers of integers represented as certain diagonal forms. In particular, we consider a family of diagonal forms and discuss the problem of…
We prove that the general symmetric tensor in $S^d {\mathbb C}^{n+1}$ of rank r is identifiable, provided that r is smaller than the generic rank. That is, its Waring decomposition as a sum of r powers of linear forms is unique. Only three…
We show that if a homogeneous polynomial $f$ in $n$ variables has Waring rank $n+1$, then the corresponding projective hypersurface $f=0$ has at most isolated singularities, and the type of these singularities is completely determined by…
The Waring Problem over polynomial rings asks how to decompose a homogeneous polynomial $p$ of degree $d$ as a finite sum of $d$-{th} powers of linear forms. In this work we give an algorithm to obtain a real Waring decomposition of any…
In this paper, we formulate an analogue of Waring's problem for an algebraic group $G$. At the field level we consider a morphism of varieties $f\colon \mathbb{A}^1\to G$ and ask whether every element of $G(K)$ is the product of a bounded…
