In this paper, we study a polynomial decomposition model that arises in problems of system identification, signal processing and machine learning. We show that this decomposition is a special case of the X-rank decomposition --- a powerful…

Although there are many simple proofs of Jordan's decomposition theorem in the literature (see [1], the references mentioned there, and [2]), our proof seems to be even more elementary. In fact, all we need is the theorem on the dimensions…

We give a robust version of the celebrated result of Kruskal on the uniqueness of tensor decompositions: we prove that given a tensor whose decomposition satisfies a robust form of Kruskal's rank condition, it is possible to approximately…

In low-rank tensor completion tasks, due to the underlying multiple large-scale singular value decomposition (SVD) operations and rank selection problem of the traditional methods, they suffer from high computational cost and high…

The low-rank canonical polyadic tensor decomposition is useful in data analysis and can be computed by solving a sequence of overdetermined least squares subproblems. Motivated by consideration of sparse tensors, we propose sketching each…

We introduce and study a notion of decomposition of planar point sets (or rather of their chirotopes) as trees decorated by smaller chirotopes. This decomposition is based on the concept of mutually avoiding sets (which we rephrase as…

Selecting the latent dimensions (ranks) in tensor factorization is a central challenge that often relies on heuristic methods. This paper introduces a rigorous approach to determine rank identifiability in probabilistic tensor models, based…

Branes and defects in topological Landau-Ginzburg models are described by matrix factorisations. We revisit the problem of deforming them and discuss various deformation methods as well as their relations. We have implemented these…

We provide a counterexample to a recent conjecture that the minimum rank of every sign pattern matrix can be realized by a rational matrix. We use one of the equivalences of the conjecture and some results from projective geometry. As a…

We study the problem of computing minimal distinguishing formulas for non-bisimilar states in finite LTSs. We show that this is NP-hard if the size of the formula must be minimal. Similarly, the existence of a short distinguishing trace is…

Suppose $f(x,y)$ is a binary form of degree $d$ with coefficients in a field $K \subseteq \mathbb C$. The $K$-rank of $f$ is the smallest number of $d$-th powers of linear forms over $K$ of which $f$ is a $K$-linear combination. We prove…

We classify possible supersymmetry-preserving relevant, marginal, and irrelevant deformations of unitary superconformal theories in $d \geq 3$ dimensions. Our method only relies on symmetries and unitarity. Hence, the results are model…

For a given matrix subspace, how can we find a basis that consists of low-rank matrices? This is a generalization of the sparse vector problem. It turns out that when the subspace is spanned by rank-1 matrices, the matrices can be obtained…

Let T be a general complex tensor of format $(n_1,...,n_d)$. When the fraction $\prod_in_i/[1+\sum_i(n_i-1)]$ is an integer, and a natural inequality (called balancedness) is satisfied, it is expected that T has finitely many minimal…
