Abstract: Conjugate partial-symmetric (CPS) tensors are the high-order generalization of Hermitian matrices. As the role played by Hermitian matrices in matrix theory and quadratic optimization, CPS tensors have shown growing interest recently in tensor theory and optimization, particularly in many application-driven complex polynomial optimization problems. In this paper, we study CPS tensors with a focus on ranks, rank-one decompositions and approximations, as well as their applications. The analysis is conducted along side with a more general class of complex tensors called partial-symmetric tensors. We prove constructively that any CPS tensor can be decomposed into a sum of rank-one CPS tensors, which provides an alternative definition of CPS tensors via linear combinations of rank-one CPS tensors. Three types of ranks for CPS tensors are defined and shown to be different in general. This leads to the invalidity of the conjugate version of Comon's conjecture. We then study rank-one approximations and matricizations of CPS tensors. By carefully unfolding CPS tensors to Hermitian matrices, rank-one equivalence can be preserved. This enables us to develop new convex optimization models and algorithms to compute best rank-one approximation of CPS tensors. Numerical experiments from various data are performed to justify the capability of our methods.
