The SOS conjecture for symmetric B₀-biquadratic tensors

About 1 year old · traced to

Let A\mathcal{A} be a symmetric B0\mathrm{B}_{0}-biquadratic tensor, meaning a symmetric biquadratic tensor satisfying the B0\mathrm{B}_{0} conditions specified in the source. An SOS tensor is one whose associated biquadratic form is a finite sum of squares of bilinear forms. SOS conjecture for symmetric B0\mathrm{B}_{0}-biquadratic tensors. Every symmetric B0\mathrm{B}_{0}-biquadratic tensor is an SOS tensor. The source states that every B0\mathrm{B}_{0}-biquadratic tensor is PSD, while the SOS property is posed as an unresolved question.
