We give a short proof that Strassen's asymptotic rank conjecture implies that for every $\varepsilon > 0$ there exists a $(3/2^{2/3} + \varepsilon)^n$-time algorithm for set cover on a universe of size $n$ with sets of bounded size. This…
We study low-rank tensor methods for the numerical solution of Schr\"odinger's equation with time-independent and explicitly time-dependent Hamiltonians, motivated by large-scale simulations of many-body quantum systems and quantum…
We investigate a generalized framework to estimate a latent low-rank plus sparse tensor, where the low-rank tensor often captures the multi-way principal components and the sparse tensor accounts for potential model mis-specifications or…
In the low-rank matrix completion (LRMC) problem, the low-rank assumption means that the columns (or rows) of the matrix to be completed are points on a low-dimensional linear algebraic variety. This paper extends this thinking to cases…
Tensors are ubiquitous in science and engineering and tensor factorization approaches have become important tools for the characterization of higher order structure. Factorizations includes the outer-product rank Canonical Polyadic…
It is well-known that tensor decompositions show separations, that is, that constraints on local terms (such as positivity) may entail an arbitrarily high cost in their representation. Here we show that many of these separations disappear…
Canonical Polyadic Decomposition (CPD) of a third-order tensor is a minimal decomposition into a sum of rank-$1$ tensors. We find new mild deterministic conditions for the uniqueness of individual rank-$1$ tensors in CPD and present an…

A tensor defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}$ has low analytic rank if the distribution of its values differs significantly from the uniform distribution. An order $d$ tensor has partition rank 1 if it can be written as a product of two…
Tensor train (TT) decomposition provides a space-efficient representation for higher-order tensors. Despite its advantage, we face two crucial limitations when we apply the TT decomposition to machine learning problems: the lack of…
Tensor decomposition on big data has attracted significant attention recently. Among the most popular methods is a class of algorithms that leverages compression in order to reduce the size of the tensor and potentially parallelize…
We present a scalable Bayesian model for low-rank factorization of massive tensors with binary observations. The proposed model has the following key properties: (1) in contrast to the models based on the logistic or probit likelihood,…
We present an efficient low-rank approximation algorithm for non-negative tensors. The algorithm is derived from our two findings: First, we show that rank-1 approximation for tensors can be viewed as a mean-field approximation by treating…
We show that a generic tensor $T\in \mathbb{F}^{n\times n\times \dots\times n}$ of order $k$ and CP rank $d$ can be uniquely recovered from $n\log n+dn\log \log n +o(n\log \log n) $ uniformly random entries with high probability if $d$ and…
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 $r \lesssim n^2$…
The paper considers function-valued tensors, viewed as multidimensional arrays with entries in an abstract Hilbert space. Despite the absence of the algebraic structure of a field, the geometric inner-product structure suffices to introduce…
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…
Robust tensor CP decomposition involves decomposing a tensor into low rank and sparse components. We propose a novel non-convex iterative algorithm with guaranteed recovery. It alternates between low-rank CP decomposition through gradient…
Tensor models play an increasingly prominent role in many fields, notably in machine learning. In several applications, such as community detection, topic modeling and Gaussian mixture learning, one must estimate a low-rank signal from a…
Abstract. The purpose of this paper is twofold. We introduce the theory of random tensors, which naturally extends the method of random averaging operators in our earlier work arXiv:1910.08492, to study the propagation of randomness under…
