Tensor Decomposition II
summary
Claims that low border rank is certified by specific minors and by two families of equations (flattenings plus Strassen-type polynomials), and gives a concrete decomposition workflow: compute the Catalecticant matrix, if that fails build an 18×18 Koszul-twisted flattening, find its kernel (dimension 4 for a general plane quintic), extract seven projective eigenvectors of tensors from a general kernel element, and solve a small linear system to recover the seven linear forms. Implementation exists in Macaulay2 and decodes a general plane quintic in ~0.5s (vs Bertini minutes on many cores).
