The SOS conjecture for symmetric B₀-biquadratic tensors
Let be a symmetric -biquadratic tensor, meaning a symmetric biquadratic tensor satisfying the 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 -biquadratic tensors. Every symmetric -biquadratic tensor is an SOS tensor. The source states that every -biquadratic tensor is PSD, while the SOS property is posed as an unresolved question.
