In this paper, we prove new relations between the bias of multilinear forms, the correlation between multilinear forms and lower degree polynomials, and the rank of tensors over $GF(2)= \{0,1\}$. We show the following results for…

In this work we study different notions of ranks and approximation of tensors. We consider the tensor rank, the nuclear rank and we introduce the notion of symmetric decomposable rank, a notion of rank defined only on symmetric tensors. We…

Fix integers $m \ge 2$, $s\ge 5$ and $d\ge 2s+2$. Here we describe the possible symmetric tensor ranks $\le 2d+s-7$ of all symmetric tensors (or homogeneous degree $d$ polynomials) in $m+1$ variables with border rank $s$.

We give sufficient conditions on a symmetric tensor S in S^dF^n to satisfy the equality: the symmetric rank of S, denoted as srank(S), is equal to the rank of S, denoted as rank(S). This is done by considering the rank of the unfolded S…

It has been shown that a best rank-R approximation of an order-k tensor may not exist when R>1 and k>2. This poses a serious problem to data analysts using tensor decompositions. It has been observed numerically that, generally, this issue…

Matrix concentration inequalities, intimately connected to the Non-Commutative Khintchine inequality, have been an important tool in both applied and pure mathematics. We study tensor versions of these inequalities, and establish…

In this lecture note, we discuss a fundamental concept, referred to as the {\it characteristic rank}, which suggests a general framework for characterizing the basic properties of various low-dimensional models used in signal processing.…

We introduce a method for transforming low-order tensors into higher-order tensors and apply it to tensors defined by graphs and hypergraphs. The transformation proceeds according to a surgery-like procedure that splits vertices, creates…

We study typical ranks with respect to a real variety $X$. Examples of such are tensor rank ($X$ is the Segre variety) and symmetric tensor rank ($X$ is the Veronese variety). We show that any rank between the minimal typical rank and the…

The tensor rank decomposition problem consists of recovering the unique set of parameters representing a robustly identifiable low-rank tensor when the coordinate representation of the tensor is presented as input. A condition number for…

Determinantal methods for bounding the rank and border rank of tensors or polynomials are subject to a major barrier. For instance, it is known that using determinantal methods one cannot prove a lower bound for the border rank of a 3-way…

We use techniques from (tracial noncommutative) polynomial optimization to formulate hierarchies of semidefinite programming lower bounds on matrix factorization ranks. In particular, we consider the nonnegative rank, the positive…

Let M_n denote the matrix multiplication tensor for nxn matrices. We use the border substitution method combined with Koszul flattenings to prove the border rank lower bound of 2n^2-log(n)-1 for M_n.

We give an upper bound for the rank of the border rank 3 partially symmetric tensors. In the special case of border rank 3 tensors $T\in V_1\otimes \cdots \otimes V_k$ (Segre case) we can show that all ranks among 3 and $k-1$ arise and if…

We investigate the computational complexity of tensor rank, a concept that plays fundamental role in different topics of modern applied mathematics. For tensors over any integral domain, we prove that the rank problem is polynomial time…

We introduce the Bhattacharya-Mesner rank of third order hypermatrices as a relaxation to the tensor rank and devise from it some bounds for the tensor rank. We use the Bhattacharya-Mesner rank to extend to third order hypermatrices the…

In this paper, we are concerned with the inversion of circulant matrices and their quantized tensor-train (QTT) structure. In particular, we show that the inverse of a complex circulant matrix $A$, generated by the first column of the form…

In Linear Algebra over finite fields, a characteristic-dependent linear rank inequality is a linear inequality that holds by ranks of subspaces of a vector space over a finite field of determined characteristic, and does not in general hold…

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…

We give a self-contained classification of $1_*$-generic minimal border rank tensors in $\mathbb{C}^m \otimes \mathbb{C}^m \otimes \mathbb{C}^m$ for $m \leq 5$. Together with previous results, this gives a classification of all minimal…
