| contents | The main goal of this paper is to study some local and global properties of secant varieties of algebraic curves. These results complement our previous work [8] by addressing issues given therein and providing solutions to problems raised subsequently. Specifically, we show a description of tangent cones of secant varieties of curves, and compute the cohomology groups of secant sheaves on symmetric products of curves, which answers a question posed in [8] and leads to a recursive formula for Hilbert polynomials of secant varieties of curves. In the appendix, we present a cohomological approach to arithmetical Cohen--Macaulayness of secant varieties of curves, completing the proof in [8]. |
