Faster Algorithms for Rectangular Matrix Multiplication
Let {\alpha} be the maximal value such that the product of an n x n^{\alpha} matrix by an n^{\alpha} x n matrix can be computed with n^{2+o(1)} arithmetic operations. In this paper we show that \alpha>0.30298, which improves the previous record \alpha>0.29462 by Coppersmith (Journal of Complexity, 1997). More generally, …
