The hitchhiker guide to: Secant varieties and tensor decomposition

A Bernardi, E Carlini, MV Catalisano, A Gimigliano… - Mathematics, 2018 - mdpi.com
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 …

[HTML][HTML] Arithmetic matroids, the Tutte polynomial and toric arrangements

M D'Adderio, L Moci - Advances in Mathematics, 2013 - Elsevier
We introduce the notion of an arithmetic matroid whose main example is a list of elements of
a finitely generated abelian group. In particular, we study the representability of its dual …

A Tutte polynomial for toric arrangements

L Moci - Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, 2012 - ams.org
We introduce a multiplicity Tutte polynomial $ M (x, y) $, with applications to zonotopes and
toric arrangements. We prove that $ M (x, y) $ satisfies a deletion-restriction recursion and …

Sagbi bases of Cox–Nagata rings

B Sturmfels, Z Xu - Journal of the European Mathematical Society, 2010 - ems.press
We degenerate Cox–Nagata rings to toric algebras by means of sagbi bases induced by
configurations over the rational function field. For del Pezzo surfaces, this degeneration …

Algebraic and geometric methods in enumerative combinatorics

F Ardila - Handbook of enumerative combinatorics, 2015 - api.taylorfrancis.com
Enumerative combinatorics is about counting. The typical question is to find the number of
objects with a given set of properties. However, enumerative combinatorics is not just about …

Zonotopal algebra

O Holtz, A Ron - Advances in Mathematics, 2011 - Elsevier
A wealth of geometric and combinatorial properties of a given linear endomorphism X of RN
is captured in the study of its associated zonotope Z (X), and, by duality, its associated …

On the weak Lefschetz property for powers of linear forms

JC Migliore, RM Miró-Roig, U Nagel - Algebra & Number Theory, 2012 - msp.org
Ideals generated by prescribed powers of linear forms have attracted a great deal of
attention recently. In this paper we study properties that hold when the linear forms are …

On the Waring problem for polynomial rings

R Fröberg, G Ottaviani… - Proceedings of the …, 2012 - National Acad Sciences
In this note we discuss an analog of the classical Waring problem for. Namely, we show that
a general homogeneous polynomial of degree divisible by k≥ 2 can be represented as a …

Combinatorial bounds on Hilbert functions of fat points in projective space

S Cooper, B Harbourne, Z Teitler - Journal of Pure and Applied Algebra, 2011 - Elsevier
We study Hilbert functions of certain non-reduced schemes A supported at finite sets of
points in PN, in particular, fat point schemes. We give combinatorially defined upper and …
