Positive semi-definite matrices commonly occur as normal matrices of least squares problems in statistics or as kernel matrices in machine learning and approximation theory. They are typically large and dense. Thus algorithms to solve…

Suppose we are given an $n$-dimensional order-3 symmetric tensor $T \in (\mathbb{R}^n)^{\otimes 3}$ that is the sum of $r$ random rank-1 terms. The problem of recovering the rank-1 components is possible in principle when $r \lesssim n^2$…
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 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…
The rank of a tensor is analyzed in context of quantum entanglement. A pure quantum state $\bf v$ of a composite system consisting of $d$ subsystems with $n$ levels each is viewed as a vector in the $d$-fold tensor product of…

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…
The canonical polyadic decomposition (CPD) of a low rank tensor plays a major role in data analysis and signal processing by allowing for unique recovery of underlying factors. However, it is well known that the low rank CPD approximation…

Unlike the matrix case, computing low-rank approximations of tensors is NP-hard and numerically ill-posed in general. Even the best rank-1 approximation of a tensor is NP-hard. In this paper, we use convex optimization to develop…

Hermitian tensors are generalizations of Hermitian matrices, but they have very different properties. Every complex Hermitian tensor is a sum of complex Hermitian rank-1 tensors. However, this is not true for the real case. We study basic…
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…
