Tensor decomposition and homotopy continuation
Participant : Bernard Mourrain.
A computationally challenging classical elimination theory problem is
to compute polynomials which vanish on the set of tensors of a given
rank. By moving away from computing polynomials via elimination theory
to computing pseudowitness sets via numerical elimination theory, we
develop in [3] computational methods for
computing ranks and border ranks of tensors along with
decompositions. More generally, we present our approach using joins of
any collection of irreducible and nondegenerate projective varieties
