Secant variety

In algebraic geometry, the secant variety , or the variety of chords, of a projective variety is the Zariski closure of the union of all secant lines (chords) to V in : (for , the line is the tangent line.) It is also the image under the projection of the closure Z of the . Note that Z has dimension and so has dimension at most . More generally, the secant variety is the Zariski closure of the union of the linear spaces spanned by collections of k+1 points on . It may be denoted by . The above secant variety is the first secant variety. Unless , it is always singular along , but may have other singular points. If has dimension d, the dimension of is at most .A useful tool for computing the dimension of a secant variety is . (Wikipedia).

Jarosław Buczyński (6/29/17) Bedlewo: Constructions of k-regular maps using finite local schemes

A continuous map R^m → R^N or C^m → C^N is called k-regular if the images of any k distinct points are linearly independent. Given integers m and k a problem going back to Chebyshev and Borsuk is to determine the minimal value of N for which such maps exist. The methods of algebraic topolo
