Abstract

We consider the $k$-osculating varieties $O_{k,n.d}$ to the (Veronese) $d-$uple embeddings of $mathbb{P}^{n}$. We study the dimension of their higher secant varieties via inverse systems (apolarity). By associating certain 0-dimensional schemes $Ysubset mathbb{P}^n$ to $O^s_{k,n,d}$ and by studying their Hilbert function we are able, in several cases, to determine whether those secant varieties are defective or not.
