Heidelberg Laureate Forum (HLF)
By Henri Linus Breloer (UiT) The Heidelberg Laureate Forum (HLF) – https://www.heidelberg-laureate-forum.org/ is a week-long event where young researchers in mathematics and computer science have the unique opportunity to meet and interact with the laureates of their fields. I was fortunate enough to attend this extraordinary event as a PhD…

Secant varieties of Segre-Veronese varieties $\mathbb P^m\times\mathbb P^n$ embedded by $\mathcal O(1,2)$ are non-defective for $n\gg m^3$, $m\geq3$
By Matej Dolezalek (UKON) and Nikhil Ken (UNIFI) At the end of March, we finished our article on secant varieties of O(1,2) Segre-Veronese varieties. It is currently going through the submission process, and in the meantime, it is available as a preprint: arXiv:2503.21972 In the article, we prove that all secant…
SIAM AG Conference in Madison, Wisconsin
By Henri Linus Breloer (UiT)The SIAM conference in algebraic geometry took place in Madison, Wisconsin, this year. For this month’s newsletter, I would like to share my experience of attending the conference. It started in January, when I was given the opportunity to hold a talk at the conference, but…
Beyond Waring: Uncovering the Fine Structure of Symmetric Tensors
By Enrica Barrilli (Inria) Classical tensor decomposition—Waring’s model—seeks to express a symmetric tensor as a minimal sum of pure powers of linear forms. While elegant and foundational, this model is also inherently limited. In both geometry and applications, many tensors exhibit a far richer internal structure: multiplicities, tangent directions, and…
