چکیده

The Chow variety of polynomials that decompose as a product of linear forms has been studied for more than 100 years. Finding equations in the ideal of secant varieties of Chow varieties would enable one to measure the complexity the permanent polynomial. In this article, I use the method of prolongation to obtain equations for secant varieties of Chow varieties as GL(V )-modules.

Flattenings and Koszul Young flattenings arising in complexity theory

I find new equations for Chow varieties, their secant varieties, and an additional variety that arises in the study of complexity theory by flattenings and Koszul Young flattenings. This enables a new lower bound for symmetric border rank of x1x2⋯xd when d is odd, and a new lower complexity bound for the permanent.

Generalizations of Strassen’s equations for secant varieties of Segre varieties

We define many new examples of modules of equations for secant varieties of Segre varieties that generalize Strassen’s commutation equations [7]. Our modules of equations are obtained by constructing subspaces of matrices from tensors that satisfy various commutation properties.

Equations for secant varieties of Veronese and other varieties

New classes of modules of equations for secant varieties of Veronese varieties are defined using representation theory and geometry. Some old modules of equations (catalecticant minors) are revisited to determine when they are sufficient to give scheme-theoretic defining equations. An algorithm to decompose a general ternary quintic as the sum of seven fifth powers is given as an illustration o...

Secant Varieties and Birational Geometry

We show how to use information about the equations defining secant varieties to smooth projective varieties in order to construct a natural collection of birational transformations. These were first constructed as flips in the case of curves by M. Thaddeus via Geometric Invariant Theory, and the first flip in the sequence was constructed by the author for varieties of arbitrary dimension in an ...

Results on Secant Varieties Leading to a Geometric Flip Construction

We study the relationship between the equations defining a projective variety and properties of its secant varieties. In particular, we use information about the syzygies among the defining equations to derive smoothness and normality statements about SecX and also to obtain information about linear systems on the blow up of projective space along a variety X. We use these results to geometrica...
