On the typical rank of real bivariate polynomials

Here we study the typical rank for real bivariate homogeneous polynomials of degree $d\ge 6$ (the case $d\le 5$ being settled by P. Comon and G. Ottaviani). We prove that $d-1$ is a typical rank and that if $d$ is odd, then $(d+3)/2$ is a typical rank.
