Given tensors $T$ and $T'$ of order $k$ and $k'$ respectively, the tensor product $T \otimes T'$ is a tensor of order $k+k'$. It was recently shown that the tensor rank can be strictly submultiplicative under this operation…

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…

Obtaining superlinear lower bounds on tensor rank is a major open problem in complexity theory. In this paper we propose a generalization of the approach used by Strassen in the proof of his 3n/2 border rank lower bound. Our approach…

This is a survey primarily about determining the border rank of tensors, especially those relevant for the study of the complexity of matrix multiplication. This is a subject that on the one hand is of great significance in theoretical…

A symmetric tensor is a higher order generalization of a symmetric matrix. In this paper, we study various properties of symmetric tensors in relation to a decomposition into a sum of symmetric outer product of vectors. A rank-1 order-k…

We study cubic surfaces as symmetric tensors of format $4 \times 4 \times 4$. We consider the non-symmetric tensor rank and the symmetric Waring rank of cubic surfaces, and show that the two notions coincide over the complex numbers. The…

We present a non-commutative algorithm for the product of 3x5 by 5x5 matrices using 58 multiplications. This algorithm allows to construct a non-commutative algorithm for multiplying 5x5 (resp. 10x10, 15x15) matrices using 98 (resp. 686,…

We prove that the border rank of the Kronecker square of the little Coppersmith-Winograd tensor $T_{cw,q}$ is the square of its border rank for $q > 2$ and that the border rank of its Kronecker cube is the cube of its border rank for $q >…

We introduce a method for transforming low-order tensors into higher-order tensors and apply it to tensors defined by graphs and hypergraphs. The transformation proceeds according to a surgery-like procedure that splits vertices, creates…

A nonnegative tensor has nonnegative rank at most 2 if and only if it is supermodular and has flattening rank at most 2. We prove this result, then explore the semialgebraic geometry of the general Markov model on phylogenetic trees with…

In connection with recent work on gaps in the asymptotic subranks of complex tensors the question arose whether the number of nonnegative real numbers that arise as the asymptotic subrank of some complex tensor is countable. In this short…

We prove border rank bounds for a class of $GL(V)$-invariant tensors in $V^*\otimes U\otimes W$, where $U$ and $W$ are $GL(V)$-modules. These tensors correspond to spaces of matrices of constant rank. In particular we prove lower bounds for…

We investigate an extension of a lower bound on the Waring (cactus) rank of homogeneous forms due to Ranestad and Schreyer. We show that for particular classes of homogeneous forms, for which a generalization of this method applies, the…

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…

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…

One of the fundamental open problems in the field of tensors is the border Comon's conjecture: given a symmetric tensor $F\in(\mathbb{C}^n)^{\otimes d}$ for $d\geq 3$, its border and symmetric border ranks are equal. In this paper, we prove…

This educational article highlights the geometric and algebraic complexities that distinguish tensors from matrices, to supplement coverage in advanced courses on linear algebra, matrix analysis, and tensor decompositions. Using the case of…

We define and study a certain relative tensor product of subfactors over a modular tensor category. This gives a relative tensor product of two completely rational heterotic full local conformal nets with trivial superselection structures…

A graded tensor category over a group $G$ will be called a crossed product tensor category if every homogeneous component has at least one multiplicatively invertible object. Our main result is a description of the crossed product tensor…

We show that the slice rank of the direct sum of two tensors is equal to the sum of their slice ranks. The upper bound is trivial, but the lower bound needs more than a one-line proof, for reasons we explain. This result generalizes the…
