Gram Matrices for Isotropic Vectors
Abstract
We investigate determinantal varieties for symmetric matrices that have zero blocks along the main diagonal. In theoretical physics, these arise as Gram matrices for kinematic variables in quantum field theories. We study the ideals of relations among functions in the matrix entries that serve as building blocks for conformal correlators.
