An upper bound on operator norms of compound matrices is presented, and special cases that involve the $\ell_1$, $\ell_2$ and $\ell_\infty$ norms are investigated. The results are then used to obtain bounds on products of the largest or…
This paper partially addresses the problem of characterizing the lengths of vectors in a family of Euclidean lattices that arise from any CM number field. We define a modified quadratic form on these lattices, the weighted norm, that…
In this paper, we present a more complete version of the minimax theorem established in [7]. As a consequence, we get, for instance, the following result: Let $X$ be a compact, not singleton subset of a normed space $(E,\|\cdot\|)$ and let…
In this note one tries to venture into a study of some notions, in the context of a (unital) normed algebra, in particular the algebra of operators on a Hilbert space. Namely, one considers ``moving norms'', i.e.\ norming an element minus a…
We show that for any regular matroid on $m$ elements and any $\alpha \geq 1$, the number of $\alpha$-minimum circuits, or circuits whose size is at most an $\alpha$-multiple of the minimum size of a circuit in the matroid is bounded by…
We define the discrete norm of a complex $m\times n$ matrix $A$ by $$ \|A\|_\Delta := \max_{0\ne\xi\in\{0,1\}^n} \frac{\|A\xi\|}{\|\xi\|}, $$ and show that $$ \frac c{\sqrt{\log h(A)+1}}\,\|A\| \le \|A\|_\Delta \le \|A\|, $$ where $c>0$ is…
The main result of this paper is that for any norm on a complex or real $n$-dimensional linear space, every extremal basis satisfies inverted triangle inequality with scaling factor $2^n-1$. Furthermore, the constant $2^n-1$ is tight. We…
We prove lower bounds for the smallest singular value of rectangular, multivariate Vandermonde matrices with nodes on the complex unit circle. The nodes are ``off the grid'', groups of nodes cluster, and the studied minimal singular value…
In the first part of this paper, we give a new look at inclusions of von Neumann algebras with finite-dimensional centers and finite Jones' index. The minimal conditional expectation is characterized by means of a canonical state on the…
Let $n>m$, and let $A$ be an $(m\times n)$-matrix of full rank. Then obviously the estimate $\|Ax\|\leq\|A\|\|x\|$ holds for the euclidean norm of $x$ and $Ax$ and the spectral norm as the assigned matrix norm. We study the sets of all $x$…
We show that if $\mathfrak{A}$ is a commutative complex non-unital Banach Algebra with norm $\|\cdot\|$, then $\|\cdot\|$ is regular on $\mathfrak{A}$ if and only if $\|\cdot\|_{op}$ is a norm on $\mathfrak{A}\oplus \mathbb{C}$ and…
We assume that every element of a matrix has a small, individual error, and model it by an external number, which is the sum of a nonstandard real number and a neutrix, the latter being a convex (external) set having the group property. The…
For any $n\ge 2$, $\Omega\subset\rn$, and any given convex and coercive Hamiltonian function $H\in C^{0}(\rn)$, we find an optimal sufficient condition on $H$, that is, for any $c\in\mathbb R$, the level set $H^{-1}(c)$ does not contains…
In this article, we study absolutely norm attaining operators ($\mathcal{AN}$-operators, in short), that is, operators that attain their norm on every non-zero closed subspace of a Hilbert space. Our focus is primarily on positive…
The trace norm of a matrix is the sum of its singular values. This paper presents results on the minimum trace norm $\psi_{n}\left( m\right) $ of $\left( 0,1\right) $-matrices of size $n\times n$ with exactly $m$ ones. It is shown that: (1)…
We hope to see how much for a model M of some completion T of PA (Peano Arithmetic) does M restriction {<} determine M, say up to isomorphism. We advance in characterizing for non-standard models M of PA the "minimal" set {(a,b):n < a < b…
We initiate the study of definability (in the model-theoretic sense) of C*-tensor norms. We show that neither the minimal nor maximal tensor norms are definable uniformly over all C*-algebras. The proof in the case of the minimal tensor…
An unknown $m$ by $n$ matrix $X_0$ is to be estimated from noisy measurements $Y=X_0+Z$, where the noise matrix $Z$ has i.i.d. Gaussian entries. A popular matrix denoising scheme solves the nuclear norm penalization problem $\operatorname…
In this paper, we determine minimal generating sets for several well-known monoids of matrices over semirings. In particular, we find minimal generating sets for the monoids consisting of: all $n\times n$ boolean matrices when $n\leq 8$;…
Given an $m\times n$ binary matrix $M$ with $|M|=p\cdot mn$ (where $|M|$ denotes the number of 1 entries), define the discrepancy of $M$ as $\mbox{disc}(M)=\displaystyle\max_{X\subset [m], Y\subset [n]}\big||M[X\times Y]|-p|X|\cdot…
