In this paper, we extend some classes of structured matrices to higher order tensors. We discuss their relationships with positive semi-definite tensors and some other structured tensors. We show that every principal sub-tensor of such a…
We define lower triangular tensors, and show that all diagonal entries of such a tensor are eigenvalues of that tensor. We then define lower triangular sub-symmetric tensors, and show that the number of independent entries of a lower…
We lay the geometric foundations for the study of the characteristic polynomial of tensors. For symmetric tensors of order $d \geq 3$ and dimension $2$ and symmetric tensors of order $3$ and dimension $3$, we prove that only finitely many…
Third-order tensors are widely used as a mathematical tool for modeling physical properties of media in solid state physics. In most cases, they arise as constitutive tensors of proportionality between basic physics quantities. The…
The M-matrix is an important concept in matrix theory, and has many applications. Recently, this concept has been extended to higher order tensors [18]. In this paper, we establish some important properties of M-tensors and nonsingular…

Tensor operations play an essential role in various fields of science and engineering, including multiway data analysis. In this study, we establish a few basic properties of the range and null space of a tensor using block circulant…
Biquadratic tensors play a central role in many areas of science. Examples include elasticity tensor and Eshelby tensor in solid mechanics, and Riemann curvature tensor in relativity theory. The singular values and spectral norm of a…
The concept of double nonnegativity of matrices is generalized to doubly nonnegative tensors by means of the nonnegativity of all entries and $H$-eigenvalues. This generalization is defined for tensors of any order (even or odd), while it…
Matrices of rank at most k are defined by the vanishing of polynomials of degree k + 1 in their entries (namely, their (k + 1)-times-(k + 1)-subdeterminants), regardless of the size of the matrix. We prove a qualitative analogue of this…
We introduce and study the definition, main properties and applications of iterated twisted tensor products of algebras, motivated by the problem of defining a suitable representative for the product of spaces in noncommutative geometry. We…
The theory and computation of tensors with different tensor products play increasingly important roles in scientific computing and machine learning. Different products aim to preserve different algebraic properties from the matrix algebra,…
The results of Strassen and Raz show that good enough tensor rank lower bounds have implications for algebraic circuit/formula lower bounds. We explore tensor rank lower and upper bounds, focusing on explicit tensors. For odd d, we…
Rank-2 and rank-3 tensors are almost all identifiable with only few exceptions. We classify them all together with the dimensions and the structures of all the sets evincing the rank.
We introduce an inductive method for the study of the uniqueness of decompositions of tensors, by means of tensors of rank 1. The method is based on the geometric notion of weak defectivity. For three-dimensional tensors of type (a, b, c),…
Motivated by the problems raised by B\"{u}rgisser and Ikenmeyer, we discuss two classes of minimal generic fundamental invariants for tensors of order 3. The first one is defined on $\otimes^3 \mathbb{C}^m$, where $m=n^2-1$. We study its…
A symmetric tensor is a higher order generalization of a symmetric matrix. In this paper, we study various properties of symmetric tensors in relation to a decomposition into a sum of symmetric outer product of vectors. A rank-1 order-k…
This paper studies the issues about tensors. Three typical kinds of tensor decomposition are mentioned. Among these decompositions, the t-SVD is proposed in this decade. Different definitions of rank derive from tensor decompositions. Based…
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.…
We define tensors, corresponding to cubic polynomials, which have the same exponent $\omega$ as the matrix multiplication tensor. In particular, we study the symmetrized matrix multiplication tensor $sM_n$ defined on an $n\times n$ matrix…
