Abstract: In the first part of this paper we give a precise description of all the minimal decompositions of any bi-homogeneous polynomial $p$ (i.e. a partially symmetric tensor of $S^{d_1}{V}_{1}otimes{S}^{d_2}{V}_2$ where $V_1,V_2$ are two complex, finite dimensional vector spaces) if its rank with respect to the Segre-Veronese variety $S_{d_1,d_2}(V_1,V_2)$ is at most $min{d}_1,d_2$. Such a polynomial may not have a unique minimal decomposition as $p=su{m}_{i=1}^{r}lambd{a}_i{p}_i$ with $p_{i}in{S}_{d_1,d_2}(V_1,V_2)$ and $lambd{a}_i$ coefficients, but we can show that there exist unique $p_1,ldots,p_{r^{\prime }}$, $p_{1^{\prime }},ldots,p_{r^{″}}in{S}_{d_1,d_2}(V_1,V_2)$, two unique linear forms $lin{V}_1^{\ast }$, $l^{\prime }in{V}_2^{\ast }$, and two unique bivariate polynomials $qin{S}^{d_2}{V}_2^{\ast }$ and $q^{\prime }in{S}^{d_1}{V}_1^{\ast }$ such that either $p=su{m}_{i=1}^{r^{\prime }}lambd{a}_i{p}_i+l^{d_1}q$ or $p=su{m}_{i=1}^{r^{″}}lambda{\text{'}}_i{p_i}^{\prime }+l{\text{'}}^{d_2}{q}^{\prime }$, ($lambd{a}_i,lambda{\text{'}}_i$ being appropriate coefficients). In the second part of the paper we focus on the tangential variety of the Segre-Veronese varieties. We compute the rank of their tensors (that is valid also in the case of Segre-Veronese of more factors) and we describe the structure of the decompositions of the elements in the tangential variety of the two-factors Segre-Veronese varieties.
