abstract
Fast matrix multiplication is one of the most fundamental problems in algorithm research. The exponent of the optimal time complexity of matrix multiplication is usually denoted by $\omega$. This paper discusses new ideas for improving the laser method for fast matrix multiplication. We observe that the analysis of higher powers of the Coppersmith-Winograd tensor [Coppersmith & Winograd 1990] incurs a "combination loss", and we partially compensate for it using an asymmetric version of CW's hashing method. By analyzing the eighth power of the CW tensor, we give a new bound of $\omega<2.371866$, which improves the previous best bound of $\omega<2.372860$ [Alman & Vassilevska Williams 2020]. Our result breaks the lower bound of $2.3725$ in [Ambainis, Filmus & Le Gall 2015] because of the new method for analyzing component (constituent) tensors.

Asymptotic tensor rank is characterized by polynomials
Sublevel sets of asymptotic tensor rank are Zariski-closed, making the parameter well-ordered in value, complete over the complex numbers, and computable from above.
