Abstract:Motivated by the study of the secant variety of the Segre-Veronese variety we propose a general framework to analyze properties of the secant varieties of toric embeddings of affine spaces defined by simplicial complexes. We prove that every such secant is toric, which gives a way to use combinatorial tools to study singularities. We focus on the Segre-Veronese variety for which we completely classify their secants that give Gorenstein or Q-Gorenstein varieties. We conclude providing the explicit description o… Show more
“…Our approach is to use methods from [6] where the authors mainly deal with the secant varieties of the Segre–Veronese varieties. More details and examples can be found in [6]. Let denote the set of non‐negative integers.…”
