Deery–Geramita conjecture on catalecticant minors

Let VV) be a finite-dimensional vector space, and let Υi,di\Upsilon^{i,d-i} denote the corresponding catalecticant map; write Minorsr(Υi,di)\operatorname{Minors}_r(\Upsilon^{i,d-i}) for the ideal generated by its r×rr\times r minors. Deery–Geramita conjecture. The ideal

Minorsr(Υi,di)\operatorname{Minors}_r(\Upsilon^{i,d-i})

is saturated for any rr, dd, and ii. This concerns the scheme-theoretic structure of catalecticant loci and is motivated by questions posed by Geramita; the source gives no resolution status.
