The Nearest Zero Eigenvector of a Weakly Symmetric Tensor from a Given Point

We begin with a degree <i>m</i> real homogeneous polynomial in <i>n</i> indeterminants and bound the distance from a given <i>n</i>-dimensional real vector to the real vanishing of the homogeneous polynomial. We then apply these bounds to the real homogeneous poly...

description We begin with a degree <i>m</i> real homogeneous polynomial in <i>n</i> indeterminants and bound the distance from a given <i>n</i>-dimensional real vector to the real vanishing of the homogeneous polynomial. We then apply these bounds to the real homogeneous polynomial associated with a nonzero <i>m</i>-order <i>n</i>-dimensional weakly symmetric tensor which has zero as an eigenvalue. We provide “nested spheres” conditions to bound the distance from a given <i>n</i>-dimensional real vector to the nearest zero eigenvector.
