Conjecture on definiteness of separable symmetric tensors
Conjecture on definiteness of separable symmetric tensors
Let with be linearly independent vectors, and let
Definiteness conjecture. Then is neither a positive semidefinite tensor nor a negative semidefinite tensor.
This conjectures that the conclusion established for separable symmetric tensors of order two extends to all orders . The source gives no resolution beyond the order-two lemma, so the general statement remains open.
