We prove that $r$ independent homogeneous polynomials of the same degree $d$ become dependent when restricted to any hyperplane if and only if their inverse system parameterizes a variety whose $(d-1)$ - osculating spaces have dimension smaller than expected. This gives an equivalence between an algebraic notion (called the Weak Lefschetz Property) and a differential geometric notion, concerning varieties that satisfy certain Laplace equations. In the toric case, some relevant examples are classified, and as a byproduct we provide counterexamples to Ilardi's conjecture.
