We are concerned with the eigenstructure of supersymmetric tensors. Like in the matrix case, normalized tensor eigenvectors are fixed points of the tensor power iteration map. However, unless the given tensor is orthogonally decomposable,…

We characterise the sensitivity of several additive tensor decompositions with respect to perturbations of the original tensor. These decompositions include canonical polyadic decompositions, block term decompositions, and sums of tree…

We study the recovery of the underlying graphs or permutations for tensors in the tensor ring or tensor train format. Our proposed algorithms compare the matricization ranks after down-sampling, whose complexity is $O(d\log d)$ for $d$-th…

We study the decomposability and the subdifferential of the tensor nuclear norm. Both concepts are well understood and widely applied in matrices but remain unclear for higher-order tensors. We show that the tensor nuclear norm admits a…

Tensors, or multi-linear forms, are important objects in a variety of areas from analytics, to combinatorics, to computational complexity theory. Notions of tensor rank aim to quantify the "complexity" of these forms, and are thus also…

In this paper we generalize the 1-bit matrix completion problem to higher order tensors. We prove that when $r=O(1)$ a bounded rank-$r$, order-$d$ tensor $T$ in $\mathbb{R}^{N} \times \mathbb{R}^{N} \times \cdots \times \mathbb{R}^{N}$ can…

Canonical Polyadic Decomposition (CPD) represents a third-order tensor as the minimal sum of rank-1 terms. Because of its uniqueness properties the CPD has found many concrete applications in telecommunication, array processing, machine…

Subtracting a critical rank-one approximation from a matrix always results in a matrix with a lower rank. This is not true for tensors in general. Motivated by this, we ask the question: what is the closure of the set of those tensors for…

We present a novel analysis of the dynamics of tensor power iterations in the overcomplete regime where the tensor CP rank is larger than the input dimension. Finding the CP decomposition of an overcomplete tensor is NP-hard in general. We…

We show that the set of $n \times n$ complex symmetric matrix pencils of rank at most $r$ is the union of the closures of $\lfloor r/2\rfloor +1$ sets of matrix pencils with some, explicitly described, complete eigenstructures. As a…

Higher-order tensors appear in various areas of mechanics as well as physics, medicine or earth sciences. As these tensors are highly complex, most are not well understood. Thus, the analysis and the visualization process form a highly…

We present an incremental, scalable and efficient dimension reduction technique for tensors that is based on sparse random linear coding. Data is stored in a compactified representation with fixed size, which makes memory requirements low…

Many real-world datasets are represented as tensors, i.e., multi-dimensional arrays of numerical values. Storing them without compression often requires substantial space, which grows exponentially with the order. While many tensor…

Training neural networks is a challenging non-convex optimization problem, and backpropagation or gradient descent can get stuck in spurious local optima. We propose a novel algorithm based on tensor decomposition for guaranteed training of…

We give constructions of n^k x n^k x n tensors of rank at least 2n^k - O(n^(k-1)). As a corollary we obtain an [n]^r shaped tensor with rank at least 2n^(r/2) - O(n^(r/2)-1) when r is odd. The tensors are constructed from a simple recursive…

As low-rank modeling has achieved great success in tensor recovery, many research efforts devote to defining the tensor rank. Among them, the recent popular tensor tubal rank, defined based on the tensor singular value decomposition…

Let $T$ be a real tensor of (real) rank $r$. $T$ is 'identifiable' when it has a unique decomposition in terms of rank $1$ tensors. There are cases in which the identifiability fails over the complex field, for general tensors of rank $r$.…
