Given $n \times n$ real symmetric matrices $A_1, \dots, A_m$, the following {\it spectral minimax} property holds: $$\min_{X \in \mathbf{\Delta}_n} \max_{y \in S_m} \sum_{i=1}^m y_iA_i \bullet X=\max_{y \in S_m} \min_{X \in…

In this note, we extend the notion of minimal gaps to the higher dimensional sequences. We bound the minimal gap for $(\{\boldsymbol{a}_n\boldsymbol{\alpha}\}),$ $(\{a_n\boldsymbol{\alpha}\})$ and…

In this work it is shown that certain interesting types of quasi-orthogonal system of subalgebras (whose existence cannot be ruled out by the trivial necessary conditions) cannot exist. In particular, it is proved that there is no…

We obtain tight lower bounds for the trace norm $\Vert \cdot \Vert_1$ of some matrices with diagonal zero, in terms of the entry-wise $L^1$-norm (denoted by $\Vert \cdot \Vert_{(1)}$). It is shown that on the space of nonzero real symmetric…

Given a definite nonnegative matrix $A \in M_n (C)$, we study the minimal index of A: $I(A) = \max \{\lambda \ge 0 : A\circ B \ge \lambda B$ for all $0\le B\}$, where $A\circ B$ denotes the Hadamard product $(A\circ B)_{ij} = A_{ij}…

We systematically investigate $C^*$-norms on the algebraic graded product of $\mathbb{Z}_2$-graded $C^*$-algebras. This requires to single out the notion of a compatible norm, that is a norm with respect to which the product grading is…

We report on a verification of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra in ACL2(r). The proof consists of four parts. First, continuity for both complex-valued and real-valued functions of complex numbers is defined, and it is shown that…

Polynomial meshes (called sometimes "norming sets") allow us to estimate the supremum norm of polynomials on a fixed compact set by the norm on its discrete subset. We give a general construction of polynomial weakly admissible meshes on…

Given a finite sequence $a:={a_1, ..., a_N}$ in a domain $\Omega \subset C^n$, and complex scalars $v:={v_1, ..., v_N}$, consider the classical extremal problem of finding the smallest uniform norm of a holomorphic function verifying…

In numerical analysis it is often necessary to estimate the condition number $CN(T)=||T||_{} \cdot||T^{-1}||_{}$ and the norm of the resolvent $||(\zeta-T)^{-1}||_{}$ of a given $n\times n$ matrix $T$. We derive new spectral estimates for…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field and let $M_n(K)$ denote the algebra of $n\times n$ matrices over $K$. A classical problem asks for the minimal possible dimension of a maximal commutative subalgebra $A \subseteq M_n(K)$. We…

This paper presents a solution to a problem from superanalysis about the existence of Hilbert-Banach superalgebras. Two main results are derived: 1) There exist Hilbert norms on some graded algebras (infinite-dimensional superalgebras…

$ \newcommand{\schs}{\scriptstyle{\mathsf{S}}_1} $For all $n \ge 1$, we give an explicit construction of $m \times m$ matrices $A_1,\ldots,A_n$ with $m = 2^{\lfloor n/2 \rfloor}$ such that for any $d$ and $d \times d$ matrices…

We characterize the infimum of a matrix norm of a square matrix A induced by an absolute norm, over the fields of real and complex numbers. Usually this infimum is greater than the spectral radius of A. If A is sign equivalent to a…

In this paper, we present some extensions of the Young and Heinz inequalities for the Hilbert-Schmidt norm as well as any unitarily invariant norm. Furthermore, we give some inequalities dealing with matrices. More precisely, for two…

Given a real $n \times m$ matrix $B$, its operator norm can be defined as $$|B|=\max_{|v|=1}|Bv|.$$ We consider a matrix "small" if it has non-negative integer entries and its operator norm is less than $2$. These matrices correspond to…

For an $n \times n$ matrix $M$ with entries in $\mathbb{Z}_2$ denote by $R(M)$ the minimal rank of all the matrices obtained by changing some numbers on the main diagonal of $M$. We prove that for each non-negative integer $k$ there is a…

Let $A$ be an $n\times n$ real matrix, and let $M$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix whose entries are i.i.d sub-Gaussian random variables with mean $0$ and variance $1$. We make two contributions to the study of $s_n(A+M)$, the smallest…

The Max-Min and Min-Max of matrices arise prevalently in science and engineering. However, in many real-world situations the computation of the Max-Min and Min-Max is challenging as matrices are large and full information about their…

Some monotone increasing sequences of the lower bounds for the minimum eigenvalue of $M$-matrices are given. It is proved that these sequences are convergent and improve some existing results. Numerical examples show that these sequences…
