Description

Book Synopsis
Tensors are used throughout the sciences, especially in solid state physics and quantum information theory. This book brings a geometric perspective to the use of tensors in these areas. Numerous open problems appropriate for graduate students and post-docs are included throughout.

Table of Contents
  • Basics: Motivation, first definitions and properties
  • Tensors via linear algebra: Rank and border rank
  • Tensor networks
  • The asymptotic geometry of tensors: Detour into probability and information theory
  • Strassen's laser method and spectral theory
  • Quantum mechanics for quantum information theory
  • Quantum information theory and the asymptotic geometry of tensors
  • Moment maps and moment polytopes
  • Hints and answers to selected exercises
  • Bibliography
  • Index.
