This is a foundational paper in tropical linear algebra, which is linear algebra over the min-plus semiring. We introduce and compare three natural definitions of the rank of a matrix, called the Barvinok rank, the Kapranov rank and the…
Compressed sensing extends from the recovery of sparse vectors from undersampled measurements via efficient algorithms to the recovery of matrices of low rank from incomplete information. Here we consider a further extension to the…
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…
There has been continued interest in seeking a theorem describing optimal low-rank approximations to tensors of order 3 or higher, that parallels the Eckart-Young theorem for matrices. In this paper, we argue that the naive approach to this…
Octupolar order is described in two space dimensions in terms of the maxima (and conjugated minima) of the probability density associated with a third-rank, fully symmetric and traceless tensor. Such a representation is shown to be…
The Rank Minimization Problem asks to find a matrix of lowest rank inside a linear variety of the space of n x n matrices. The Low Rank Matrix Completion problem asks to complete a partially filled matrix such that the resulting matrix has…
Most popular word embedding techniques involve implicit or explicit factorization of a word co-occurrence based matrix into low rank factors. In this paper, we aim to generalize this trend by using numerical methods to factor higher-order…
We study tensor networks as a model of arithmetic computation for evaluating multilinear maps. These capture any algorithm based on low border rank tensor decompositions, such as $O(n^{\omega+\epsilon})$ time matrix multiplication, and in…
We make a geometric study of the Geometric Rank of tensors recently introduced by Kopparty et al. Results include classification of tensors with degenerate geometric rank in $C^3\otimes C^3\otimes C^3$, classification of tensors with…
We systematically compute improved asymptotic rank bounds for tensors. Using numerical implicitization, we implement the geometric framework of Kaski and Micha{\l}ek across all computationally feasible cases. By detecting the absence of…
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…
We describe the stratification by tensor rank of the points belonging to the tangent developable of any Segre variety. We give algorithms to compute the rank and a decomposition of a tensor belonging to the secant variety of lines of any…
Given a tract $F$ in the sense of Baker and Bowler and a matrix $A$ with entries in $F$, we define several notions of rank for $A$. In this way, we are able to unify and find conceptually satisfying proofs for various results about ranks of…
We introduce the ``skew apolarity lemma'' and we use it to give algorithms for the skew-symmetric rank and the decompositions of tensors in {$\bigwedge^dV_{\mathbb{C}}$ with $d\leq 3$ and $\dim V_{\mathbb{C}} \leq 8$}. New algorithms to…
A matrix always has a full rank submatrix such that the rank of this matrix is equal to the rank of that submatrix. This property is one of the corner stones of the matrix rank theory. We call this property the max-full-rank-submatrix…
We generalize methods to compute various kinds of rank to the case of a toric variety $X$ embedded into projective space using a very ample line bundle $\mathcal{L}$. We find an upper bound on the cactus rank. We use this to compute rank,…
Low rank tensor decompositions are a powerful tool for learning generative models, and uniqueness results give them a significant advantage over matrix decomposition methods. However, tensors pose significant algorithmic challenges and…
We study cubic surfaces as symmetric tensors of format $4 \times 4 \times 4$. We consider the non-symmetric tensor rank and the symmetric Waring rank of cubic surfaces, and show that the two notions coincide over the complex numbers. The…
We prove that multilinear (tensor) analogues of many efficiently computable problems in numerical linear algebra are NP-hard. Our list here includes: determining the feasibility of a system of bilinear equations, deciding whether a 3-tensor…
We initiate the systematic study of modular representations of symmetric groups that arise via the braiding in (symmetric) tensor categories over fields of positive characteristic. We determine what representations appear for certain…
