摘要: It is well-known that a symmetric matrix with its entries $\pm1$ is not positive definite. But this is not ture for symmetric tensors (hyper-matrix). In this paper, we mainly dicuss the positive (semi-)definiteness criterion of a class of $4$th order $3$-dimensional symmetric tensors with entries $t_{ijkl}\in\{-1,0,1\}$. Through theoretical derivations and detailed classification discussions, the criterion for determining the positive (semi-)definiteness of such a class of tensors are provided based on the relationships and number values of its entries. Which establishes some unique properties of higher symmetric tensors that distinct from ones of matrces
