The fundamental matrix and trifocal tensor are convenient algebraic representations of the epipolar geometry of two and three view configurations, respectively. The estimation of these entities is central to most reconstruction algorithms,…
Tensors are often studied by introducing preorders such as restriction and degeneration: the former describes transformations of the tensors by local linear maps on its tensor factors; the latter describes transformations where the local…
In this paper, we obtain new bounds for the tensor rank of multiplication in any extension of $\F_2$. In particular, it also enables us to obtain the best known asymptotic bound. In this aim, we use the generalized algorithm of type…
Since the breakthrough superpolynomial multilinear formula lower bounds of Raz (Theory of Computing 2006), proving such lower bounds against multilinear algebraic branching programs (mABPs) has been a longstanding open problem in algebraic…
We give a sufficient criterion for a lower bound of the cactus rank of a tensor. Then we refine that criterion in order to be able to give an explicit sufficient condition for a non-redundant decomposition of a tensor to be minimal and…
We consider the minimax query complexity of online planning with a generative model in fixed-horizon Markov decision processes (MDPs) with linear function approximation. Following recent works, we consider broad classes of problems where…
In this paper we develop algorithms for approximating matrix multiplication with respect to the spectral norm. Let A\in{\RR^{n\times m}} and B\in\RR^{n \times p} be two matrices and \eps>0. We approximate the product A^\top B using two…
The classical Crossing Lemma by Ajtai et al.~and Leighton from 1982 gave an important lower bound of $c \frac{m^3}{n^2}$ for the number of crossings in any drawing of a given graph of $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. The original value was $c=…
This paper is devoted to the study of lower and upper bounds for the number of vertices of the polytope of $n\times n\times n$ stochastic tensors (i.e., triply stochastic arrays of dimension $n$). By using known results on polytopes (i.e.,…
The rigidity of a matrix describes the minimal number of entries one has to change to reduce matrix's rank to r. We give very simple combinatorial proof of the lower bound for the rigidity of Sylvester (special case of Hadamard) matrix that…
Since the seminal works of Strassen and Valiant it has been a central theme in algebraic complexity theory to understand the relative complexity of algebraic problems, that is, to understand which algebraic problems (be it bilinear maps…
Tensor network methods have been a key ingredient of advances in condensed matter physics and have recently sparked interest in the machine learning community for their ability to compactly represent very high-dimensional objects. Tensor…
We provide a novel analysis of low-rank tensor completion based on hypergraph expanders. As a proxy for rank, we minimize the max-quasinorm of the tensor, which generalizes the max-norm for matrices. Our analysis is deterministic and shows…
We study the computational complexity of singularity for multilinear maps. While the determinant characterizes singularity for matrices, its multilinear analogue -- the hyperdeterminant -- is defined only in boundary format and quickly…
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…
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 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…
Let $K_n$ be the set of all nonsingular $n\times n$ lower triangular $(0,1)$-matrices. Hong and Loewy (2004) introduced the numbers $$ c_n={\rm min}\{\lambda\mid \lambda~\text{is an eigenvalue of}~XX^{\rm T},~X\in K_n\},\quad…
By a tensor we mean an element of a tensor product of vector spaces over a field. Up to a choice of bases in factors of tensor products, every tensor may be coordinatized, that is, represented as an array consisting of numbers. This note is…
A manifold M is simple if it contains no essential disk, sphere, annulus or torus. If M is simple and two Dehn fillings M(r_1), M(r_2) are nonsimple, then there is an upper bound on \Delta(r_1,r_2), the geometric intersection number between…
