We study the problem of testing whether a symmetric $d \times d$ input matrix $A$ is symmetric positive semidefinite (PSD), or is $\epsilon$-far from the PSD cone, meaning that $\lambda_{\min}(A) \leq - \epsilon \|A\|_p$, where $\|A\|_p$ is…
Postive semidefinite (PSD) cone is the cone of positive semidefinite matrices, and is the object of interest in semidefinite programming (SDP). A computational efficient approximation of the PSD cone is the $k$-PSD closure, $1 \leq k < n$,…
We investigate questions related to the set $\mathcal{SEP}_d$ consisting of the linear maps $\rho$ acting on $\mathbb{C}^d\otimes \mathbb{C}^d$ that can be written as a convex combination of rank one matrices of the form $xx^*\otimes yy^*$.…
Positive semidefinite Hermitian matrices that are not fully specified can be completed provided their underlying graph is chordal. If the matrix is positive definite the completion can be uniquely characterized as the matrix that maximizes…
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;…
Canonical polyadic decomposition (CPD) is at the core of fast matrix multiplication, a computational problem with widespread implications across several seemingly unrelated problems in computer science. Much recent progress in this field…
We study the problem of testing whether a matrix $\mathbf{A} \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times n}$ with bounded entries ($\|\mathbf{A}\|_\infty \leq 1$) is positive semi-definite (PSD), or $\epsilon$-far in Euclidean distance from the PSD cone,…
A matrix is called totally positive if every minor of it is positive. Such matrices are well studied and have numerous applications in Mathematics and Computer Science. We study how many times the value of a minor can repeat in a totally…
Principal matrices of a numerical semigroup of embedding dimension n are special types of $n \times n$ matrices over integers of rank $\leq n - 1$. We show that such matrices and even the pseudo principal matrices of size n must have rank…
Several important applications, such as streaming PCA and semidefinite programming, involve a large-scale positive-semidefinite (psd) matrix that is presented as a sequence of linear updates. Because of storage limitations, it may only be…
We investigate structural properties of the completely positive semidefinite cone $\mathcal{CS}_+^n$, consisting of all the $n \times n$ symmetric matrices that admit a Gram representation by positive semidefinite matrices of any size. This…
This paper addresses the following three topics: positive semidefinite (psd) matrix completions, universal rigidity of frameworks, and the Strong Arnold Property (SAP). We show some strong connections among these topics, using semidefinite…
A square matrix $A$ is completely positive if $A=BB^T$, where $B$ is a (not necessarily square) nonnegative matrix. In general, a completely positive matrix may have many, even infinitely many, such CP factorizations. But in some cases a…
Binary quadratic programming problems have attracted much attention in the last few decades due to their potential applications. This type of problems are NP-hard in general, and still considered a challenge in the design of efficient…
Consider a convex set S defined by a matrix inequality of polynomials or rational functions over a domain. The set S is called semidefinite programming (SDP) representable or just semidefinite representable if it equals the projection of a…
The computation of the sparse principal component of a matrix is equivalent to the identification of its principal submatrix with the largest maximum eigenvalue. Finding this optimal submatrix is what renders the problem…
We develop tractable convex relaxations for rank-constrained quadratic optimization problems over $n \times m$ matrices, a setting for which tractable relaxations are typically only available when the objective or constraints admit spectral…
The square root rank of a nonnegative matrix $A$ is the minimum rank of a matrix $B$ such that $A=B \circ B$, where $\circ$ denotes entrywise product. We show that the square root rank of the slack matrix of the correlation polytope is…
Tensors decompositions are a class of tools for analysing datasets of high dimensionality and variety in a natural manner, with the Canonical Polyadic Decomposition (CPD) being a main pillar. While the notion of CPD is closely intertwined…
We consider the problem of minimizing a linear function over an affine section of the cone of positive semidefinite matrices, with the additional constraint that the feasible matrix has prescribed rank. When the rank constraint is active,…
