We consider the problem of determining the symmetric tensor rank for symmetric tensors with an algebraic geometry approach. We give algorithms for computing the symmetric rank for 2 × · · · × 2 tensors and for tensors of small border rank. From a geometric point of view, we describe the symmetric rank strata for some secant varieties of Veronese varieties.

In this paper, we generalize a result on the possible dimensions of the kernel of a linear combination of a particular type of canonical algebraic curvature tensors. We then introduce a new framework for viewing canonical algebraic curvature tensors, using the wedge product, which allows us to give shorter and more transparent proofs of some basic facts about these tensors.

Unpaired image-to-image translation has been applied successfully to natural images but received very little attention for manifold-valued data such as in diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). The non-Euclidean nature of DTI prevents current generative adversarial networks (GANs) from generating plausible and mainly limited their application MRI scalar maps, fractional anisotropy (FA) or mean diffusi...

Energy equation for turbulent flow in a rotating system was derived in terms of second order correlation tensors, where the correlation tensors were functions of space coordinates, distance between two points and time. To reveal the relationship of turbulent energy between two points, one point was taken as origin of the coordinate system. Due to rotation, the Coriolis force played an important...

As is well known, the smallest possible ratio between the spectral norm and the Frobenius norm of an m× n matrix with m ≤ n is 1/ √ m and is (up to scalar scaling) attained only by matrices having pairwise orthonormal rows. In the present paper, the smallest possible ratio between spectral and Frobenius norms of n1×· · ·×nd tensors of order d, also called the best rank-one approximation ratio i...

Killing-Yano tensors are natural generalizations of Killing vectors. We investigate whether Killing-Yano tensors form a graded Lie algebra with respect to the Schouten-Nijenhuis bracket. We find that this proposition does not hold in general, but that it does hold for constant curvature spacetimes. We also show that Minkowski and (anti)-deSitter spacetimes have the maximal number of Killing-Yan...

This paper deals with estimation of structured signals such as damped sinusoids, exponentials, polynomials, and their products from single channel data. It is shown that building tensors from this kind of data results in tensors with hidden block structure which can be recovered through the tensor diagonalization. The tensor diagonalization means multiplying tensors by several matrices along it...

In this paper we specialize the projective unifocal, bifocal, and trifocal tensors to the affine case, and show how the tensors obtained relate to the registered tensors encountered in previous work. This enables us to obtain an affine specialization of known projective relations connecting points and lines across two or three views. In the simpler case of affine cameras we give neccessary and ...

The geometry of the set of restrictions of rank-one tensors to some of their coordinates is studied. This gives insight into the problem of rank-one completion of partial tensors. Particular emphasis is put on the semialgebraic nature of the problem, which arises for real tensors with constraints on the parameters. The algebraic boundary of the completable region is described for tensors parame...
