Determinantal equations for secant varieties and the Eisenbud-Koh-Stillman conjecture

Abstract: Abstract. We address special cases of a question of Eisenbud on the ideals of secant varieties of Veronese re-embeddings of arbitrary varieties. Eisenbud's question generalizes a conjecture of Eisenbud, Koh and Stillman (EKS) for curves. We prove that set-theoretic equations of small secant varieties to a high degree Veronese re-embedding of a smooth variety are determined by equations of the ambient Veronese variety and linear equations. However this is false for singular varieties, and we give explicit count… Show more

“…One of them is implicit in Geramita's question Q4 from [Ger99]: Conjecture 1.3 has been proven to be false for singular X [BGL10], but there are no known smooth counterexamples. The case X = P r is a sufficiently interesting special case.…”

“…Fix X ⊂ P r and a positive integer a ≤ ρ ′ (X). Then σ a (X) is the union of all linear spaces Z , where Z ⊂ X is a smoothable zerodimensional scheme of degree a ( [6], Proposition 11, [8], [7]). …”

“…We prove an analogous result for σ 3 (Seg(PA × PB × PC)): 3 (Seg(PA × PB × PC)). Moreover, if dim A, dim B, dim C ≥ 3, and p is a general point in the set of the points contained in some P(C 2 ⊗ C 3 ⊗ C 3 ), then p is a non-singular point of σ 3 (Seg(PA×PB ×PC)), and similarly for permuted statements.…”

“…Exceptional limit points turn out to be important-an exceptional limit in σ 5 (Seg(PA × PB × PC)) is used in Bini's approximate algorithm to multiply 2 × 2 matrices with an entry zero, and an exceptional limit in σ 7 (Seg(PA × PB × PC)) is used in Schönhage's approximate algorithm to multiply 3 × 3 matrices using 21 multiplications, see [3,Thm 1.15].…”
