In this paper we discuss the dimensions of the (higher) secant varieties to the Grassmann varieties, embedded via the Plucker embeddings. We use Terracini's Lemma and the duality in the exterior algebra of a finite dimensional vector space…
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…
Secant varieties are among the main protagonists in tensor decomposition, whose study involves both pure and applied mathematical areas. Grassmannians are the building blocks for skewsymmetric tensors. Although they are ubiquitous in the…
We show that a large class of secant varieties is nondefective. In particular, we positively resolve most cases of the Baur-Draisma-de Graaf conjecture on Grassmannian secants in large dimensions. Our result improves the known bounds on…
Restricted secant varieties of Grassmannians are constructed from sums of points corresponding to $k$-planes with the restriction that their intersection has a prescribed dimension. We study dimensions of restricted secant of Grassmannians…
We prove that the generic element of the fifth secant variety $\sigma_5(Gr(\mathbb{P}^2,\mathbb{P}^9)) \subset \mathbb{P}(\bigwedge^3 \mathbb{C}^{10})$ of the Grassmannian of planes of $\mathbb{P}^9$ has exactly two decompositions as a sum…
In this paper we compute the dimension of all the higher secant varieties to the Segre-Veronese embedding of $\mathbb{P}^n\times \mathbb{P}^1$ via the section of the sheaf $\mathcal{O}(a,b)$ for any $n,a,b\in \mathbb{Z}^+$. We relate this…
For any irreducible non-degenerate variety $X\subset \mathbb{P}^r$, we give a criterion for the $(k,s)$-identifiability of $X$. If $k\leq s-1 <r$, then the $(k,s)$-identifiability holds for $X$ if and only if the $s$-identifiability holds…
We introduce a method to produce bounds for the non secant defectivity of an arbitrary irreducible projective variety, once we know how its osculating spaces behave in families and when the linear projections from them are generically…
A well known theorem by Alexander-Hirschowitz states that all the higher secant varieties of $V_{n,d}$ (the $d$-uple embedding of $\mathbb{P}^n$) have the expected dimension, with few known exceptions. We study here the same problem for…
Let $Gr(k,n)$ be the Pl\"ucker embedding of the Grassmann variety of projective $k$-planes in $\P n$. For a projective variety $X$, let $\sigma_s(X)$ denote the variety of its $s-1$ secant planes. More precisely, $\sigma_s(X)$ denotes the…
We consider here the problem, which is quite classical in Algebraic geometry, of studying the secant varieties of a projective variety $X$. The case we concentrate on is when $X$ is a Veronese variety, a Grassmannian or a Segre variety. Not…
We study the dimensions of secant varieties of the Grassmannian of Lagrangian subspaces in a symplectic vector space. We calculate these dimensions for third and fourth secant varieties. Our result is obtained by providing a normal form for…
For an irreducible projective variety X, we study the family of h-planes contained in the secant variety Sec_k(X), for 0<h<k. These families have an expected dimension and we study varieties for which the expected dimension is not attained;…
A permutation is called Grassmannian if it has at most one descent. The study of pattern avoidance in such permutations was initiated by Gil and Tomasko in 2021. We continue this work by studying Grassmannian permutations that avoid an…
A projective variety $X\subset\mathbb{P}^N$ is $h$-identifiable if the generic element in its $h$-secant variety uniquely determines $h$ points on $X$. In this paper we propose an entirely new approach to study identifiability, connecting…
Secant varieties of a homogeneously embedded generalised Grassmannian $G/P$ inherit the natural group action, and one can reduce the study of their local geometric properties to $G$-orbit representatives. The case of secant varieties of…
This paper studies the dimension of secant varieties to Segre varieties. The problem is cast both in the setting of tensor algebra and in the setting of algebraic geometry. An inductive procedure is built around the ideas of successive…
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…
In this paper, using the method of moving frames, we generalise some of Terracini's results on varieties with tangent defect. In particular, we characterise varieties with higher order osculating defect in terms of Jacobians of higher…
