The Euclidean Distance Degree of Smooth Complex Projective Varieties
We obtain several formulas for the Euclidean distance degree (ED degree) of an arbitrary nonsingular variety in projective space: in terms of Chern and Segre classes, Milnor classes, Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson classes, and an extremely simple formula equating the Euclidean distance degree of X with the Euler characteristic of an open subset of X.
متن کاملThe Euclidean Distance Degree of Orthogonally Invariant Matrix Varieties
We show that the Euclidean distance degree of a real orthogonally invariant matrix variety equals the Euclidean distance degree of its restriction to diagonal matrices. We illustrate how this result can greatly simplify calculations in concrete circumstances.
متن کاملEuclidean Distance Degree for Chemical Reaction Networks
In this paper we investigate the complexity of model selection and model testing in chemical reaction networks by formulating them as Euclidean distance problems. We determine closed form expressions for the Euclidean distance degree of the steady state varieties associated to several different families of toric chemical reaction networks with arbitrarily many reaction sites. We show how our re...
متن کاملThe Euclidean Distance Degree of an Algebraic Variety
The nearest point map of a real algebraic variety with respect to Euclidean distance is an algebraic function. For instance, for varieties of low rank matrices, the Eckart-Young Theorem states that this map is given by the singular value decomposition. This article develops a theory of such nearest point maps from the perspective of computational algebraic geometry. The Euclidean distance degre...
متن کاملLines on Projective Varieties
I prove two theorems: Let X ⊂ P be a hypersurface and let x ∈ X be a general point. If the set of lines having contact to order k with X at x is of dimension greater than expected, then the lines having contact to order k are actually contained in X. A variety X is said to be covered by lines if there exist a finite number of lines in X passing through a general point. Let X ⊂ P be a variety co...
