Description: Low-rank tensor approximation is an established tool in signal processing and data analysis to decompose multilinear data beyond standard matrix principal component analysis. In recent years its application to modern large scale problems has become an active area of research. A different motivation for the development of low-rank tensor techniques comes from the "curse of dimensionality” after discretization of high-dimensional functions as they arise, for example, in quantum physics or uncertainty quantification. When the number of variables becomes unmanagebly large, traditional numerical methods for solving (partial) differential, integral, or eigenvalue equations are severely limited in their application.
The transition from low-rank matrix to low-rank tensor approximation involves many surprisingly hard challenges and open problems on the theoretical and practical level. To investigate these problems, it is important to combine the developments from different fields within numerical mathematics and optimization that aim at understanding and developing low-rank tensor techniques. In particular, there is a fruitful interaction of theoretical tools from different mathematical branches, such as approximation theory, algebraic/differential geometry, linear algebra, and numerical analysis, on the one side, and there are various application areas in big data, quantum physics, computational chemistry, or computer science, on the other side.
This Hausdorff School is intended for graduate and postdoctoral students who are interested in classical results and recent developments in low-rank tensor approximation, and wish to acquire modern research tools to work in the field. Particular focus will be on high-dimensional numerical tensor calculus, and low-rank optimization methods.
