Let $X = (x_1,\dots,x_n)$ be a vector of distinct positive integers. The $n \times n$ matrix $S = S(X) := (\gcd(x_i,x_j))_{i,j=1}^n$, where $\gcd(x_i,x_j)$ denotes the greatest common divisor of $x_i$ and $x_j$, is called the greatest…

It is easily checkable if a given tensor is a B tensor, or a B$_0$ tensor or not. In this paper, we show that a symmetric B tensor can always be decomposed to the sum of a strictly diagonally dominated symmetric M tensor and several…

For integers $x$ and $y$, $(x, y)$ and $[x, y]$ stand for the greatest common divisor and the least common multiple of $x$ and $y$ respectively. Denote by $|T|$ the number of elements of a finite set $T$. Let $a,b$ and $n$ be positive…

In this paper, we introduce the concept of an $m$-order $n$-dimensional generalized Hilbert tensor $\mathcal{H}_{n}=(\mathcal{H}_{i_{1}i_{2}\cdots i_{m}})$, $$ \mathcal{H}_{i_{1}i_{2}\cdots i_{m}}=\frac{1}{i_{1}+i_{2}+\cdots i_{m}-m+a},\…

The exponent $\sigma(T)$ of a tensor $T\in\mathbb{F}^d\otimes\mathbb{F}^d\otimes\mathbb{F}^d$ over a field $\mathbb{F}$ captures the base of the exponential growth rate of the tensor rank of $T$ under Kronecker powers. Tensor exponents are…

Anti-circulant tensors have applications in exponential data fitting. They are special Hankel tensors. In this paper, we extend the definition of anti-circulant tensors to generalized anti-circulant tensors by introducing a circulant index…

In this paper, we first introduce the invertibility of even-order tensors and the separable tensors, including separable symmetry tensors and separable anti-symmetry tensors, defined respectively as the sum and the algebraic sum of rank-1…

Let $S=\{x_1,x_2,\dots,x_n\}$ be a set of distinct positive integers, and let $f$ be an arithmetical function. The GCD matrix $(S)_f$ on $S$ associated with $f$ is defined as the $n\times n$ matrix having $f$ evaluated at the greatest…

We introduce {odd-order} strongly PSD (positive semi-definite) tensors which map real vectors to nonnegative vectors. We then introduce odd-order strongly SOS (sum-of-squares) tensors. A strongly SOS tensor maps real vectors to nonnegative…

The concept of double nonnegativity of matrices is generalized to doubly nonnegative tensors by means of the nonnegativity of all entries and $H$-eigenvalues. This generalization is defined for tensors of any order (even or odd), while it…

We generalize the concept of the symmetric hyperdeterminants for symmetric tensors to the E-determinants for general tensors. We show that the E-determinant inherits many properties of the determinant of a matrix. These properties include:…

The T-product for third-order tensors has been used extensively in the literature. In this paper, we first introduce the first-order and second-order T-derivatives for the multi-vector real-valued function with the tensor T-product; and…

It is well-known that a symmetric matrix with its entries $\pm1$ is not positive definite. But this is not ture for symmetric tensors (hyper-matrix). In this paper, we mainly dicuss the positive (semi-)definiteness criterion of a class of…

Motivated by symmetric Cauchy matrices, we define symmetric Cauchy tensors and their generating vectors in this paper. Hilbert tensors are symmetric Cauchy tensors. An even order symmetric Cauchy tensor is positive semi-definite if and only…

A novel tensor decomposition framework, termed Tensor Star (TS) decomposition, is proposed which represents a new type of tensor network decomposition based on tensor contractions. This is achieved by connecting the core tensors in a ring…
