Radical Sylvester-Gallai Theorem for Tuples of Quadratics

Authors: Abhibhav Garg, Rafael Oliveira, Shir Peleg, and Akash Kumar Sengupta

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 264, 38th Computational Complexity Conference (CCC 2023)


Abstract
We prove a higher codimensional radical Sylvester-Gallai type theorem for quadratic polynomials, simultaneously generalizing [Hansen, 1965; Shpilka, 2020]. Hansen’s theorem is a high-dimensional version of the classical Sylvester-Gallai theorem in which the incidence condition is given by high-dimensional flats instead of lines. We generalize Hansen’s theorem to the setting of quadratic forms in a polynomial ring, where the incidence condition is given by radical membership in a high-codimensional ideal. Our main theorem is also a generalization of the quadratic Sylvester-Gallai Theorem of [Shpilka, 2020]. Our work is the first to prove a radical Sylvester-Gallai type theorem for arbitrary codimension k ≥ 2, whereas previous works [Shpilka, 2020; Shir Peleg and Amir Shpilka, 2020; Shir Peleg and Amir Shpilka, 2021; Garg et al., 2022] considered the case of codimension 2 ideals. Our techniques combine algebraic geometric and combinatorial arguments. A key ingredient is a structural result for ideals generated by a constant number of quadratics, showing that such ideals must be radical whenever the quadratic forms are far apart. Using the wide algebras defined in [Garg et al., 2022], combined with results about integral ring extensions and dimension theory, we develop new techniques for studying such ideals generated by quadratic forms. One advantage of our approach is that it does not need the finer classification theorems for codimension 2 complete intersection of quadratics proved in [Shpilka, 2020; Garg et al., 2022].

Robust Radical Sylvester-Gallai Theorem for Quadratics

Authors: Abhibhav Garg, Rafael Oliveira, and Akash Kumar Sengupta

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 224, 38th International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2022)


Abstract
We prove a robust generalization of a Sylvester-Gallai type theorem for quadratic polynomials. More precisely, given a parameter 0 < δ ≤ 1 and a finite collection ℱ of irreducible and pairwise independent polynomials of degree at most 2, we say that ℱ is a (δ, 2)-radical Sylvester-Gallai configuration if for any polynomial F_i ∈ ℱ, there exist δ(|ℱ|-1) polynomials F_j such that |rad (F_i, F_j) ∩ ℱ| ≥ 3, that is, the radical of F_i, F_j contains a third polynomial in the set. We prove that any (δ, 2)-radical Sylvester-Gallai configuration ℱ must be of low dimension: that is dim span_ℂ{ℱ} = poly(1/δ).
