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.)
