On the third secant variety

Abstract: We determine normal forms and ranks of tensors of border rank at most three. We present a differential-geometric analysis of limits of secant planes in a more general context. In particular there are at most four types of points on limiting trisecant planes for cominuscule varieties such as Grassmannians. We also show that the singular locus of the secant varieties σ r (Seg(P n × P m × P q )) has codimension at least two for r = 2, 3.

“…4 We do not claim that an approach based on classifying irreducible representations is doomed to fail; for instance, classifying the irreducible representations of the elements of the rth order secant variety is possible for all tensor spaces, provided that r is sufficiently small [39, p. 244]; see, e.g., [13]. It is unclear whether such an approach could be employed to prove that the set of tensors for which problem (1.2) is ill-posedness for higher-order tensor spaces over an arbitrary field has positive volume.…”

“…In fact, the analogous statement is true for lines on any cominuscule variety, see [3,Lemma 3.3]. Because of this, it will be more geometrical to refer toT L Seg(PA × PB × PC) ∶= ⟨T y Seg(PA × PB × PC),T z Seg(PA × PB × PC)⟩, as the choice of y, z ∈ L is irrelevant, at least for first order algorithms.…”

“…Just as with T BCLR , the limit points all lie on a Seg(P 1 × P 1 × P 1 ), in fact the "same" Seg(P 1 × P 1 × P 1 ). Pictorially the Segres are: for T BCLRS, 3 . Here E AS,3 ∩ Seg(PA × PB × PC) is the union of a one-parameter family of lines L α passing through a plane conic and a special P 1 × P 1 : Seg 21,(β,ω),(γ,ω * ) ∶= [x 2 1 ] × P(v 2 ⊗W ) × P(W * ⊗u 3 ) (which contains p 1 , p 3 , p 4 , p 6 ).…”

“…For a subvariety X ⊂ PV and a smooth point x ∈ X, there is a sequence of differential invariants called the fundamental forms FF k ∶ S k T x X → N j x X, where N j x X is the j-th normal space. After making choices of splittings and ignoring twists by line bundles, write V =x ⊕ [9] for a quick introduction. Adopt the notation FF 1 ∶ T x X → T x X is the identity map.…”
