Tensoring by a plane maintains secant-regularity in degree at least two

Abstract: Starting from an integral projective variety $Y$ equipped with a very ample, non-special and not-secant defective line bundle $\mathcal{L}$, the paper establishes, under certain conditions, the regularity of $(Y \times \mathbb P^2,\mathcal{L}[t])$ for $t\geq 2$. The mildness of those conditions allow to classify all secant defective cases of any product of $(\mathbb P^1)^{ j}\times (\mathbb P^2)^{k}$, $j,k \geq 0$, embedded in multidegree at least $(2, \ldots , 2)$ and $(\mathbb{P}^m\times\mathbb{P}^n\times (\mathbb{P}^2)^k, \mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^m\times\mathbb{P}^n\times (\mathbb{P}^2)^k} (d,e,t_1, \ldots, t_k))$ where $d,e \geq 3$, $t_i\geq 2$, for any $n$ and $m$.
