Minimality of Tree Tensor Network Ranks

Jana Jovcheva, Tim Seynnaeve, Nick Vannieuwenhoven

For a given tree tensor network , we call a tuple of bond dimensions minimal if there exists a tensor that can be represented by this network but not on the same tree topolo…

Manifold-valued function approximation from multiple tangent spaces

Hang Wang, Raf Vandebril, Joeri Van der Veken +1

Approximating a manifold-valued function from samples of input-output pairs consists of modeling the relationship between an input from a vector space and an output on a Riemannian…

A chiseling algorithm for low-rank Grassmann decomposition of skew-symmetric tensors

Nick Vannieuwenhoven

A numerical algorithm to decompose an exact low-rank skew-symmetric tensor into a sum of elementary (rank-) skew-symmetric tensors is introduced. The algorithm uncovers this Gra…

Warped geometries of Segre-Veronese manifolds

Simon Jacobsson, Lars Swijsen, Joeri Van der Veken +1

Segre-Veronese manifolds are smooth submanifolds of tensors comprising the partially symmetric rank-1 tensors. We investigate a one-parameter family of warped geometries of Segre-V…

Approximating maps into manifolds with lower curvature bounds

Simon Jacobsson, Raf Vandebril, Joeri van der Veken +1

Many interesting functions arising in applications map into Riemannian manifolds. We present an algorithm, using the manifold exponential and logarithm, for approximating such func…

Hadamard-Hitchcock decompositions: identifiability and computation

Alessandro Oneto, Nick Vannieuwenhoven

A Hadamard-Hitchcock decomposition of a multidimensional array is a decomposition that expresses the latter as a Hadamard product of several tensor rank decompositions. Such decomp…

Group-invariant tensor train networks for supervised learning

Brent Sprangers, Nick Vannieuwenhoven

Invariance has recently proven to be a powerful inductive bias in machine learning models. One such class of predictive or generative models are tensor networks. We introduce a new…

Almost all subgeneric third-order Chow decompositions are identifiable

Douglas A. Torrance, Nick Vannieuwenhoven

For real and complex homogeneous cubic polyomials in variables, we prove that the Chow variety of products of linear forms is generically complex identifiable for all ranks u…

All secant varieties of the Chow variety are nondefective for cubics and quaternary forms

Douglas A. Torrance, Nick Vannieuwenhoven

The Chow rank of a form is the length of its smallest decomposition into a sum of products of linear forms. For a generic form, this corresponds to finding the smallest secant vari…
