Osculating Geometry and Higher-Order Distance Loci

Sandra Di Rocco, Kemal Rose, Luca Sodomaco

We discuss the problem of optimizing the distance function from a given point, subject to polynomial constraints. A key algebraic invariant that governs its complexity is the Eucli…

Conditional Euclidean distance optimization via relative tangency

Sandra Di Rocco, Lukas Gustafsson, Luca Sodomaco

We introduce a theory of relative tangency for projective algebraic varieties. The dual variety of a variety relative to a subvariety is the set of hyperplanes t…

On the minimal algebraic complexity of the rank-one approximation problem for general inner products

Khazhgali Kozhasov, Alan Muniz, Yang Qi +1

We study the algebraic complexity of Euclidean distance minimization from a generic tensor to a variety of rank-one tensors. The Euclidean Distance (ED) degree of the Segre-Verones…

Degrees of Kalman varieties of tensors

Zahra Shahidi, Luca Sodomaco, Emanuele Ventura

Kalman varieties of tensors are algebraic varieties consisting of tensors whose singular vector -tuples lay on prescribed subvarieties. They were first studied by Ottaviani and…

Asymptotics of degrees and ED degrees of Segre products

Giorgio Ottaviani, Luca Sodomaco, Emuanuele Ventura

Two fundamental invariants attached to a projective variety are its classical algebraic degree and its Euclidean Distance degree (ED degree). In this paper, we study the asymptotic…

The Distance Function from a Real Algebraic Variety

Giorgio Ottaviani, Luca Sodomaco

For any (real) algebraic variety in a Euclidean space endowed with a nondegenerate quadratic form , we introduce a polynomial which, for any…
