Abstract

We consider a statistical model for finite-rank symmetric tensor factorization and prove a single-letter variational expression for its asymptotic mutual information when the tensor is of even order. The proof applies the adaptive interpolation method originally invented for rank-one factorization. Here we show how to extend the adaptive interpolation to finite-rank and even-order tensors. This requires new nontrivial ideas with respect to the current analysis in the literature. We also underline where the proof falls short when dealing with odd-order tensors.
