A tensor ${\mathcal A}$ of order $m$ and dimension $n$ is called a ${\rm Q}$-tensor if the tensor complementarity problem has a solution for all ${\bf q} \in {\mathbb R}^{n}$. This means that for every vector ${\bf q}$, there exists a…
In this paper, we study the nonemptiness, compactness, uniqueness, and finiteness of the solution set of a new type of nonlinear complementarity problem, namely the extended horizontal tensor complementarity problem (EHTCP). We introduce…
Hermitian tensors are natural generalizations of Hermitian matrices, while possessing rather different properties. A Hermitian tensor is separable if it has a Hermitian decomposition with only positive coefficients, i.e., it is a sum of…
In this paper, we examine structured tensors which have sum-of-squares (SOS) tensor decomposition, and study the SOS-rank of SOS tensor decomposition. We first show that several classes of even order symmetric structured tensors available…
We define a general product of two $n$-dimensional tensors $\mathbb {A}$ and $\mathbb {B}$ with orders $m\ge 2$ and $k\ge 1$, respectively. This product is a generalization of the usual matrix product, and satisfies the associative law.…

It is well-known that a symmetric matrix with its entries $\pm1$ is not positive definite. But this is not ture for symmetric tensors (hyper-matrix). In this paper, we mainly dicuss the positive (semi-)definiteness criterion of a class of…
We define three types of upper (and lower) triangular blocked tensors, which are all generalizations of the triangular blocked matrices. We study some basic properties and characterizations of these three types of triangular blocked…
The connection between spherical harmonics and symmetric tensors is explored. For each spherical harmonic, a corresponding traceless symmetric tensor is constructed. These tensors are then extended to include nonzero traces, providing an…
Completely positive (CP) tensors, which correspond to a generalization of CP matrices, allow to reformulate or approximate a general polynomial optimization problem (POP) with a conic optimization problem over the cone of CP tensors.…
In this work, we present a new characterization of symmetric $H^+$-tensors. It is known that a symmetric tensor is an $H^+$-tensor if and only if it is a generalized diagonally dominant tensor with nonnegative diagonal elements. By…

In this paper, we prove that all H$^+$(Z$^+$)-eigenvalues of each principal sub-tensor of a strictly semi-positive tensor are positive. We define two new constants associated with H$^+$(Z$^+$)eigenvalues of a strictly semi-positive tensor.…
This paper discusses the problem of symmetric tensor decomposition on a given variety $X$: decomposing a symmetric tensor into the sum of tensor powers of vectors contained in $X$. In this paper, we first study geometric and algebraic…

Copositive and completely positive matrices play an increasingly important role in Applied Mathematics, namely as a key concept for approximating NP-hard optimization problems. The cone of copositive matrices of a given order and the cone…
