On the Finite Field Nullstellensatz for the intersection of two quadric hypersurfaces.
Fix integers n, x, k such that n≥3, k>0, x≥4, (n, x)≠(3, 4) and k(n+1)<(nn+x). Here we prove that the order x Veronese embedding ofP n is not weakly (k−1)-defective, i.e. for a general S⊃P n such that #(S) = k+1 the projective space | I 2S (x)| of all degree t hypersurfaces ofP n singular at each point of S has dimension (n/n+x )−1− k(n+1) (proved by Alexander and Hirschowitz) and a general F∈| I 2S (x)| has an ordinary double point at each P∈ S and Sing (F)=S.
Here we study the Brill-Noether theory of “extremal” Cornalba’s theta-characteristics on stable curves C of genus g, where “extremal” means that they are line bundles on a quasi-stable model of C with #(Sing(C)) exceptional components
Let X ⊂ Pn be an integral and non-degenerate m-dimensional variety defined over R. For any P ∈ Pn(R) the real X-rank r x,R(P) is the minimal cardinality of S ⊂ X(R) such that P ∈ . Here we extend to the real case an upper bound for the X-rank due to Landsberg and Teitler.
