We revisit recent work of Heath-Brown on the average order of the quantity r(L_1)r(L_2)r(L_3)r(L_4), for suitable binary linear forms L_1,..., L_4, for integers ranging over quite general regions. In addition to improving the error term in…

A biextraspecial group of rank $m$ is an extension of a special 2-group $Q$ of the form $2^{2 + 2m}$ by $L\cong L_2(2)$, such that the 3-element from $L$ acts on $Q$ fixed-point-freely. Subgroups of this type appear in at least the sporadic…

The tensor rank decomposition, or canonical polyadic decomposition, is the decomposition of a tensor into a sum of rank-1 tensors. The condition number of the tensor rank decomposition measures the sensitivity of the rank-1 summands with…

We present an $O^*\left(|\mathbb{F}|^{(R-n_*)\left(\sum_d n_d\right)+n_*}\right)$-time algorithm for determining whether a tensor of shape $n_0\times\dots\times n_{D-1}$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}$ has rank $\le R$, where $n_*:=\max_d…

In this paper we consider the Waring rank of monomials over the real and the rational numbers. We give a new upper bound for it by establishing a way in which one can take a structured apolar set for any given monomial…

The Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of varieties of degree r and dimension n in the r-dimensional projective space that have an extremal secant line, is at least d-r+n+1. We classify these varieties and show that their regularity is exactly…

Recently, Marian-Oprea-Pandharipande established (a generalization of) Lehn's conjecture for Segre numbers associated to Hilbert schemes of points on surfaces. Extending work of Johnson, they provided a conjectural correspondence between…

We construct rank varieties for the Drinfel'd double of the Taft algebra and for U_q(sl2). For the Drinfel'd double when n=2 this uses a result which identifies a family of subalgebras that control projectivity of A-modules whenever A is a…

Persistent tensors, introduced in [Quantum 8 (2024), 1238], and inspired by quantum information theory, form a recursively defined class of tensors that remain stable under the substitution method and thereby yield nontrivial lower bounds…

A (positive definite and integral) quadratic form $f$ is called regular if it represents all integers that are locally represented. It is known that there are only finitely many regular ternary quadratic forms up to isometry. However, there…

The Witt ring of symmetric bilinear forms over a field has divided power operations. On the other hand, it follows from Garibaldi-Merkurjev-Serre's work on cohomological invariants that all operations on the Witt ring are essentially linear…

Let $F$ be a field. Following the resolution of Milnor's conjecture relating the graded Witt ring of $F$ to its mod-2 Milnor $K$-theory, a major problem in the theory of symmetric bilinear forms is to understand, for any positive integer…

A tensor is a multi-way array that can represent, in addition to a data set, the expression of a joint law or a multivariate function. As such it contains the description of the interactions between the variables corresponding to each of…

A theorem of Bayer and Teichmann implies that if a finite real multisequence \beta = \beta^(2d) has a representing measure, then the associated moment matrix M_d admits positive, recursively generated moment matrix extensions M_(d+1),…

Tensor type data are becoming important recently in various application fields. We determine a rank of a tensor T so that A+T is diagonalizable for a given 3-tensor A with 2 slices over the complex and real number field.

A theorem proved by Quillen and by Catlin and D'Angelo states that a bi-homogeneous form on a multidimensional complex space which is positive away from zero can be written as a sum of squares of absolute values of polynomials once it is…

A linear mapping upon real n-dimensional space, where the dimension n is odd, has a real eigenvalue-eigenvector pair. The corresponding statement for complex vector spaces holds true for any dimension n, but should be easy to demonstrate…

Recently, the authors obtained the Schur multiplier, the non-abelian tensor square and the non-abelian exterior square of $d$-generator generalized Heisenberg Lie algebras of rank $ \frac{1}{2}d(d-1).$ Here, we intend to obtain the same…

We propose a new numerical algorithm for computing the tensor rank decomposition or canonical polyadic decomposition of higher-order tensors subject to a rank and genericity constraint. Reformulating this computational problem as a system…

We study cubic surfaces as symmetric tensors of format $4 \times 4 \times 4$. We consider the non-symmetric tensor rank and the symmetric Waring rank of cubic surfaces, and show that the two notions coincide over the complex numbers. The…
