Solving a quadratic matrix equation with fat matrix
I am trying to find an $n \times m$ fat (i.e., $m > n$) matrix $T$ that solves
$$T^T T = X$$
where $X$ is a given $m \times m$ symmetric, positive semidefinite matrix.
I saw this post, but ...

Is there a method to solve a non-linear quadratic matrix equation?
I am interested in solving the following quadratic equation: $$x^{\top} A x = \sqrt{x^{\top} B x}$$
Here, $x \in \mathbb{R^q}$ is an unknown vector, and A and B are two q$\times$q-dimensional ...

How to solve for bounds restricting ${\Sigma}$ to symmetric-positive-semi-definiteness?
Scenario
I have a equation for a covariance matrix ${\Sigma}$ where everything but a vector of correlations is known aka $x=(x_{1}, \dots, x_{D})$ for $x_{i}\in [-1, 1]$.
Problem
I know that ${x}$ ...
