What Is the Multilinear Eigenvalue Problem Called?

I'm trying to do something that requires solving an eigenvalue problem of the form
A_{imkl} c_m c_k c^*_l=\lambda c_i
where A is a known rank-4 tensor, \lambda is the eigenvalue, and the c_i's are a set of unknown coefficients that I need to determine. I would guess that this type of problem should be solvable, but I have no idea where to start. For all I know, it's a problem with a common name that I just don't know. Any pointers?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
If anyone even knew what this class of problem is called, that would be tremendously helpful. (A Google search on various terms related to "eigenvalues" comes up with a lot of useless results.)
 
##\textbf{Exercise 10}:## I came across the following solution online: Questions: 1. When the author states in "that ring (not sure if he is referring to ##R## or ##R/\mathfrak{p}##, but I am guessing the later) ##x_n x_{n+1}=0## for all odd $n$ and ##x_{n+1}## is invertible, so that ##x_n=0##" 2. How does ##x_nx_{n+1}=0## implies that ##x_{n+1}## is invertible and ##x_n=0##. I mean if the quotient ring ##R/\mathfrak{p}## is an integral domain, and ##x_{n+1}## is invertible then...
The following are taken from the two sources, 1) from this online page and the book An Introduction to Module Theory by: Ibrahim Assem, Flavio U. Coelho. In the Abelian Categories chapter in the module theory text on page 157, right after presenting IV.2.21 Definition, the authors states "Image and coimage may or may not exist, but if they do, then they are unique up to isomorphism (because so are kernels and cokernels). Also in the reference url page above, the authors present two...
When decomposing a representation ##\rho## of a finite group ##G## into irreducible representations, we can find the number of times the representation contains a particular irrep ##\rho_0## through the character inner product $$ \langle \chi, \chi_0\rangle = \frac{1}{|G|} \sum_{g\in G} \chi(g) \chi_0(g)^*$$ where ##\chi## and ##\chi_0## are the characters of ##\rho## and ##\rho_0##, respectively. Since all group elements in the same conjugacy class have the same characters, this may be...
