Tensor Complementarity Problem and Semi-positive Tensors

Abstract

The tensor complementarity problem (\q, \mathcal{A}) is to \mbox{ find } \x \in \mathbb{R}^n\mbox{ such that }\x \geq \0, \q + \mathcal{A}\x^{m-1} \geq \0, \mbox{ and }\x^\top (\q + \mathcal{A}\x^{m-1}) = 0. We prove that a real tensor A\mathcal{A} is a (strictly) semi-positive tensor if and only if the tensor complementarity problem (\q, \mathcal{A}) has a unique solution for \q>\0 (\q\geq\0), and a symmetric real tensor is a (strictly) semi-positive tensor if and only if it is (strictly) copositive. That is, for a strictly copositive symmetric tensor A\mathcal{A}, the tensor complementarity problem (\q, \mathcal{A}) has a solution for all \q \in \mathbb{R}^n
