The singular values of a matrix AA of size m×nm\times n can be seen as the critical values of the bilinear form ⟨u,Av⟩\langle u,Av\rangle with uu and vv ranging over the unit spheres of Rm\mathbb{R}^m and Rn\mathbb{R}^n, respectively. If uu and vv are further restricted by closed convex cones PP and QQ, respectively, then the criticality conditions are: P∋u⊥(Av−σu)∈P∗P\ni u \perp (Av-\sigma u)\in P^\ast, Q∋v⊥(A⊤u−σv)∈Q∗Q\ni v \perp (A^\top u -\sigma v)\in Q^\ast. This is a coupled system of complementarity problems involving a pair of cones and their dual cones. The parameter σ\sigma is called a singular value of AA relative to (P,Q)(P,Q). The purpose of our work is to study this new concept of singular value. The analysis of such a coupled system is motivated by a number of applications. By way of illustration, we consider a nonnegative Principal Component Analysis problem.
