The goal of tensor completion is to fill in missing entries of a partially known tensor (possibly including some noise) under a low-rank constraint. This may be formulated as a least-squares problem.

Locally isotropic pseudo-Riemannian manifolds are known to be locally symmetric; this result is due to Wolf. In the Riemannian setting one proof, due to Szabó, uses spectral properties of the so-called Szabó operator. In this paper we extend Szabó's method to the pseudo-Riemannian setting, obtaining results comparable …
