Fix integers m≥5 and d≥3. Let f be a degree d homogeneous polynomial in m+1 variables. Here, we prove that f is the sum of at most d·⌈(m+dm)/(m+1)⌉d-powers of linear forms (of course, this inequality is nontrivial only if m≫d.)

Let X⊂ℙr be an integral and nondegenerate variety. Let c be the minimal integer such that ℙr is the c-secant variety of X, that is, the minimal integer c such that for a general O∈ℙr there is S⊂X with #(S)=c and O∈〈S〉, where 〈 〉 is the linear span. Here we prove that for every P∈ℙr there is a zero-dimensional scheme Z⊂X such that P∈〈Z〉 and deg(Z)≤2c; we may take Z as union of points and tangent vectors of Xreg.

We present the state-of-the-art on maximum symmetric tensor rank, for each given dimension and order. After a general discussion on the interplay between symmetric tensors, polynomials and divided powers, we introduce the technical environment and the methods that have been set up in recent times to find new lower and upper bounds.
