May 10 at 12:17 comment added Zach Teitler Sorry, please disregard that comment. I think it's better to simply put $M_k=V(I_{k+1})$, then everything is fine.
May 10 at 12:06 comment added Zach Teitler For the second statement you should put $M_2$ instead of $M_1$. In this notation $M_k$ are the matrices of rank $k-1$. $M_{k+1}$ is the $k$ secant variety of $M_2$. Other than that, aren't these statements true when $k=\min(m,n)$?
May 9 at 11:18 comment added Francesco Polizzi @Sasha: fixed, thanks (it seems that [ACGH] forget to specify this, too...)

May 9 at 11:13 comment added Francesco Polizzi Then you must consider secant varieties. I will add it in the answer.
May 9 at 10:11 comment added zhjzwlys Thanks for your answer. I know the result, but I don't understand how it can help me. I hope that smaller k can lead to larger k, but this seems to be the opposite.
May 9 at 10:06 comment added Sasha Only for $k < \operatorname{min}(m,n)$.
