Bounded-rank tensors are defined in bounded degree

Abstract: Matrices of rank at most k are defined by the vanishing of polynomials of degree k + 1 in their entries (namely, their (k + 1)-times-(k + 1)-subdeterminants), regardless of the size of the matrix. We prove a qualitative analogue of this statement for tensors of arbitrary dimension, where matrices correspond to two-dimensional tensors. More specifically, we prove that for each k there exists an upper bound d = d(k) such that tensors of border rank at most k are defined by the vanishing of polynomials of degree … Show more

“…The set-theoretic theorem above was first proved in [DK13] for kSeg, i.e., for any fixed secant variety of Seg; and a discussion with Snowden led to the insight that our proof generalises to bounded, good, ∆-varieties as in the theorem. Further recent keywords closely related to the topic of this chapter are GL ∞ -algebras [SS12], FI-modules [CEF12], and cactus varieties [BB13].…”

“…For very general, so-called equivariant models, the fact that on set-theoretic level there exists a bound was proved in [DK09,DK14,DE15]. For the class of G-models that includes all the models introduced in this article, on the level of projective schemes the bounds were obtained in [Mic13].…”
