Doyoung Choi, Singularities and syzygies of secant varieties of smooth projective varieties
B236-1 IBS, Korea, Republic of
Algebraic Geometry Seminar
Speaker Doyoung Choi KAIST / IBS We study the higher secant varieties of a smooth projective variety embedded in projective space. We prove that when the variety is a surface and the embedding line bundle is sufficiently positive, these varieties are normal with Du Bois singularities and the syzygies of their defining ideals …
