Singularities Determined by Their Discriminant.
We study the singular locus of the variety of degenerate hypermatrices of an arbitrary format. Our main result is a classification of irreducible components of the singular locus. Equivalently, we classify irreducible components of the singular locus for the projectively dual variety of a product of several projective spaces taken in the Segre embedding.
We give examples of complete intersections in C3 with exact Poincaré complex but not quasihomogeneous using the classification of C.T.C. and the algorithm of Mora.
This article studies components of Springer fibers for that are associated to closed orbits of on the flag variety of . These components occur in any Springer fiber. In contrast to the case of arbitrary components, these components are smooth varieties. Using results of Barchini and Zierau we show these components are iterated bundles and are stable under the action of a maximal torus of . We prove that if is a line bundle on the flag variety associated to a dominant weight, then the higher...
