The Rough Veronese variety

We study signature tensors of paths from a geometric viewpoint. The signatures of a given class of paths parametrize an algebraic variety inside the space of tensors, and these signature varieties provide both new tools to investigate paths and new challenging questions about their behavior. This paper focuses on signatures of rough paths. Their signature variety shows surprising analogies with the Veronese variety, and our aim is to prove that this so-called Rough Veronese is toric. The same holds for the universal variety. Answering a question of Amendola, Friz and Sturmfels, we show that the ideal of the universal variety does not need to be generated by quadrics.

Collisions of fat points and applications to interpolation theory

We address the problem to determine the limit of the collision of fat points in $\mathbb{P}^n. We give a description of the limit scheme in many cases, in particular in low dimension and multiplicities. The problem turns out to be closely related with interpolation theory, and as an application we exploit collisions to prove some new cases of Laface-Ugaglia Conjecture.

Identifiability of homogeneous polynomials and Cremona Transformations

A homogeneous polynomial of degree $d$ in $n+1$ variables is identifiable if it admits a unique additive decomposition in powers of linear forms. Identifiability is expected to be very rare. In this paper we conclude a work started more than a century ago and we describe all values of $d$ and $n$ for which a general polynomial of degree $d$ in $n+1$ variables is identifiable. This is done by classifying a special class of Cremona transformations of projective spaces.

On the number of Waring decompositions for a generic polynomial vector

We prove that a general polynomial vector $(f_1, f_2, f_3)$ in three homogeneous variables of degrees $(3,3,4)$ has a unique Waring decomposition of rank 7. This is the first new case we are aware, and likely the last one, after five examples known since 19th century and the binary case. We prove that there are no identifiable cases among pairs $(f_1, f_2)$ in three homogeneous variables of degree $(a, a+1)$, unless $a=2$, and we give a lower bound on the number of decompositions. The new example was discovered with Numerical Algebraic Geometry, while its proof needs Nonabelian Apolarity.
