Title: | Injective norm of real and complex random tensors |
Abstract: | The injective norm is a natural generalization to tensors of the operator norm of a matrix. In quantum information, the injective norm is one important measure of genuine multipartite entanglement of quantum states, where it is known as the geometric entanglement. We give a high-probability upper bound on the injective norm of real and complex Gaussian random tensors, corresponding to a lower bound on the geometric entanglement of random quantum states. The proof is based on spin-glass methods, the Kac—Rice formula, and recent progress coming from random matrices. Joint work with Stéphane Dartois. |
