The nonnegative and positive semidefinite (PSD-) ranks are closely connected to the nonnegative and positive semidefinite extension complexities of a polytope, which are the minimal dimensions of linear and SDP programs which represent this…
In this paper we study various versions of extension complexity for polygons through the study of factorization ranks of their slack matrices. In particular, we develop a new asymptotic lower bound for their nonnegative rank, shortening the…
We use techniques from (tracial noncommutative) polynomial optimization to formulate hierarchies of semidefinite programming lower bounds on matrix factorization ranks. In particular, we consider the nonnegative rank, the positive…
The positive semidefinite rank of a nonnegative $(m\times n)$-matrix~$S$ is the minimum number~$q$ such that there exist positive semidefinite $(q\times q)$-matrices $A_1,\dots,A_m$, $B_1,\dots,B_n$ such that $S(k,\ell) = \mbox{tr}(A_k^*…
In this paper, we study the symmetric rank of products of linear forms and an irreducible quadratic form. The main result presents a new, non-trivial lower bound for the rank, and the arguments rely on the apolarity lemma. In the special…
The nonnegative rank of a nonnegative matrix is the minimum number of nonnegative rank-one factors needed to reconstruct it exactly. The problem of determining this rank and computing the corresponding nonnegative factors is difficult;…
The minimum rank of a graph is the minimum possible rank of a real matrix whose zero-nonzero pattern is described by the graph. The current algorithms can compute efficiently the minimum rank of undirected trees. This paper provides an…
Given a nonnegative matrix M with rational entries, we consider two quantities: the usual positive semidefinite (psd) rank, where the matrix is factored through the cone of real symmetric psd matrices, and the rational-restricted psd rank,…
A symmetric positive semi-definite matrix A is called completely positive if there exists a matrix B with nonnegative entries such that A=BB^T. If B is such a matrix with a minimal number p of columns, then p is called the cp-rank of A. In…
The positive semidefinite (psd) rank of a polytope is the smallest $k$ for which the cone of $k \times k$ real symmetric psd matrices admits an affine slice that projects onto the polytope. In this paper we show that the psd rank of a…
In this article the notion of the nondecreasing (ND) rank of a matrix or tensor is introduced. A tensor has an ND rank of r if it can be represented as a sum of r outer products of vectors, with each vector satisfying a monotonicity…
A factorization of an $n \times n$ nonnegative symmetric matrix $A$ of the form $BCB^T$, where $C$ is a $k \times k$ symmetric matrix, and both $B$ and $C$ are required to be nonnegative, is called the Symmetric Nonnegative Matrix…
The Symmetric Nonnegative Matrix Trifactorization (SN-Trifactorization) is a factorization of an $n \times n$ nonnegative symmetric matrix $A$ of the form $BCB^T$, where $C$ is a $k \times k$ symmetric matrix, and both $B$ and $C$ are…
Positive semidefinite rank (PSD-rank) is a relatively new quantity with applications to combinatorial optimization and communication complexity. We first study several basic properties of PSD-rank, and then develop new techniques for…
A fooling-set matrix has nonzero diagonal, but at least one in every pair of diagonally opposite entries is 0. Dietzfelbinger et al. '96 proved that the rank of such a matrix is at least $\sqrt n$. It is known that the bound is tight (up to…
A polytope is inscribable if there is a realization where all vertices lie on the sphere. In this paper, we provide a necessary and sufficient condition for a polytope to be inscribable. Based on this condition, we characterize the problem…
We show that any bounded integral function $f : A \times B \mapsto \{0,1, \dots, \Delta\}$ with rank $r$ has deterministic communication complexity $\Delta^{O(\Delta)} \cdot \sqrt{r} \cdot \log r$, where the rank of $f$ is defined to be the…
The rank of an n x n matrix A is equal to the size of its largest square submatrix with a nonzero determinant, and it can be computed in O(n^2.37) time. Analogously, the size of the largest square submatrix with nonzero permanent is defined…
Given an input matrix polynomial whose coefficients are floating point numbers, we consider the problem of finding the nearest matrix polynomial which has rank at most a specified value. This generalizes the problem of finding a nearest…
The minimum rank of a graph G is the minimum rank over all real symmetric matrices whose off-diagonal sparsity pattern is the same as that of the adjacency matrix of G. In this note we present the first exact algorithm for the minimum rank…
