Abstract:  

Minimal submanifolds are mathematical abstractions of soap films: they
minimize the Riemannian volume locally around every point. Finding
minimal algebraic hypersurfaces in _𝑅__𝑛_ for each n is a long-standing
open problem posed by Hsiang. In 2010 Tkachev gave a partial solution to
this problem showing that the hypersurface of n x n real matrices of
corank one is minimal. I will discuss the following generalization of
this fact to all determinantal matrix varieties: for any m, n and r<m,n
the (open) variety of m x n real matrices of rank r is minimal. More
generally, I will show that real tensors of fixed multi-linear rank form
a minimal submanifold in the Euclidean space of all tensors of a given
format. The talk is partially based on a joint work with A. Heaton and
L. Venturello.
