We give a sufficient condition for the strong symmetric version of Strassen's additivity conjecture: the Waring rank of a sum of forms in independent variables is the sum of their ranks, and every Waring decomposition of the sum is a sum of…

We show that the apolar ideal to the determinant of a generic symmetric matrix is generated in degree two, and the apolar ideal to the permanent of a generic symmetric matrix is generated in degrees two and three. In each case we specify…

We study the question of finding the maximal determinant of matrices of odd order with entries {-1,1}. The most general upper bound on the maximal determinant, due to Barba, can only be achieved when the order is the sum of two consecutive…

We show that the border rank of the $4 \times 4$ determinant tensor is at least $12$ over $\mathbb{C}$, using the fixed ideal theorem introduced by Buczy\'nska-Buczy\'nski and the method by Conner-Harper-Landsberg. Together with the known…

Let $W_3(n)$ be the set of Waring ranks of reducible cubic forms in $n+1$ variables. We prove that $W_3(n)\subseteq \lbrace 1,..., 2n+1\rbrace$.

Grunewald, Mennicke and Vaserstein proved that the Bass stable rank of $\mathbb{Z}[x]$, the ring of the univariate polynomials over $\mathbb{Z}$, is $3$. This note addresses minor errors found in their proof. Using their method, we show in…

In this note we show that the complete symmetric polynomials are dual generators of compressed artinian Gorenstein algebras satisfying the Strong Lefschetz Property. This is the first example of an explicit dual form with these properties.…

Starting from our previous papers [AGMO] and [ABC], we prove the existence of a non-empty Euclidean open subset whose elements are polynomial vectors with 4 components, in 3 variables, degrees, respectively, 2,3,3,3 and rank 6, which are…

Border complexity measures are defined via limits (or topological closures), so that any function which can approximated arbitrarily closely by low complexity functions itself has low border complexity. Debordering is the task of proving an…

We investigate whether eigenvectors, also known as critical rank-one approximations, of a symmetric tensor can be used to increase or decrease its Waring rank. First, we study the variety of degree-d rank-r forms which admit an eigenvector…

We discuss an approach to the secant non-defectivity of the varieties parametrizing $k$-th powers of forms of degree $d$. It employs a Terracini type argument along with certain degeneration arguments, some of which are based on toric…

Let $C=Z(f)$ be a reduced plane curve of degree $6k$, with only nodes and ordinary cusps as singularities. Let $I$ be the ideal of the points where $C$ has a cusp. Let $\oplus S(-b_i)\to \oplus S(-a_i) \to S\to S/I$ be a minimal resolution…

In the polynomial ring $T=k[y_1,...,y_n]$, with $n>1$, we bound the multiplicity of homogeneous radical ideals $I\subset (y_1^{a_1},...,y_n^{a_n})$ such that $T/I$ is a graded $k$-algebra with Krull dimension one. As a consequence we solve…

We determine the Waring rank of homogeneous polynomials of the form $x^ky^kz^k + \ell^{3k}$ where $\ell$ is a linear form. The result is based on the study of the Hilbert function and the resolution of special configurations of points in…

We give a lower bound for the Waring rank and cactus rank of forms that are invariant under an action of a connected algebraic group. We use this to improve the Ranestad--Schreyer--Shafiei lower bounds for the Waring ranks and cactus ranks…

We analyze the problem of determining Waring decompositions of the powers of any quadratic form over the field of complex numbers. Our main goal is to provide information about their rank and also to obtain decompositions whose size is as…

We consider the 3 by 3 determinant polynomial and we describe the limit points of the set of all polynomials obtained from the determinant polynomial by linear change of variables. This answers a question of J. M. Landsberg.

We describe a method for bounding the rank of an elliptic curve under the assumptions of the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture and the generalized Riemann hypothesis. As an example, we compute, under these conjectures, exact upper bounds…

Let $n>1$ be a positive integer. Let $R$ be a henselian local ring with residue field $k$ of $n$th level $s_n(k)$. We give some upper and lower bounds for the $n$th Waring number $w_n(R)$ in terms of $w_n(k)$ and $s_n(k)$. In large number…

Let $M_{\langle u,v,w\rangle}\in C^{uv}\otimes C^{vw}\otimes C^{wu}$ denote the matrix multiplication tensor (and write $M_n=M_{\langle n,n,n\rangle}$) and let $det_3\in ( C^9)^{\otimes 3}$ denote the determinant polynomial considered as a…
