New Classes of Positive Semi-Definite Hankel Tensors
Minimax theory and its applications, Tome 2 (2017) no. 2
AHankel tensor is called a strong Hankel tensor if the Hankel matrix generated by its generating vector is positive semi-definite. It is known that an even order strong Hankel tensor is a sum of-squares tensor, and thus a positive semi-definite tensor. The SOS decomposition of strong Hankel tensors has been well-studied by Ding, Qi and Wei [11]. On the other hand, very little is known for positive semi-definite Hankel tensors which are not strong Hankel tensors. In this paper, we study some classes of positive semi-definite Hankel tensors which are not strong Hankel tensors. These include truncated Hankel tensors and quasi-truncated Hankel tensors. Then we show that a strong Hankel tensor generated by an absoluate integrable function is always completely decomposable, and give a class of SOS Hankel tensors which are not completely decomposable.
