Nov 18, 2020 at 0:11 comment added JCK How about this dissertation from Kileel: web.math.princeton.edu/~jkileel/thesis.pdf? It claims to use something called "Ulrich sheaves", but I haven't dug into it enough to see how much it 'really' needs.

May 27, 2018 at 0:19 comment added Timothy Chow You could try asking David Mumford; I would expect him to be familiar with any use of algebraic geometry in computer vision. There is going to be a symposium in August in his honor that you might find interesting. cmsa.fas.harvard.edu/mumford

May 25, 2018 at 20:20 comment added Andy Putman I won't post this as an answer since I am not super-familiar with his research, but my colleague Andrew Sommese started off life as a very pure algebraic geometer (working in the post-Grothendieck context of schemes and what not) and later shifted into applications of algebraic geometry. You might check out his work: www3.nd.edu/~sommese
May 25, 2018 at 19:24 comment added mmm Does this count? arxiv.org/pdf/1303.3255.pdf specifically p.159 and p.168

May 25, 2018 at 18:20 comment added No One @PaulSiegel Good comment! But I am still praying that this question will enlighten some mathematicians and trigger such "accidents". We can wait.
May 25, 2018 at 18:12 comment added Paul Siegel That said, a lot of number theorists study cryptography, so that's not an unreasonable place to look for such an accident.
May 25, 2018 at 18:11 comment added Paul Siegel I'm skeptical that you'll get any good answers to this, primarily for sociological reasons. Applied mathematics is driven by practitioners and domain experts, not theorists, and for obvious reasons they organize their subject around things they understand rather than things that they don't. Hartshorne is a pretty serious and speculative investment for someone working on disease dynamics or fluid flow. On the other side, algebraic geometers are mostly interested in, well, algebraic geometry problems. So applications of the sort you describe would require a weird historical accident.
