Let F be a 4-regular graph with an Euler system C. We introduce a simple way to modify the interlacement matrix of C so that every circuit partition P of F has an associated modified interlacement matrix M(C,P). If C and C' are Euler…
To each 4x4 matrix of reals another 4x4 matrix is constructed, the so-called associate matrix. This associate matrix is shown to have rank 1 and norm 1 (considered as a 16D vector) if and only if the original matrix is a 4D rotation matrix.…
A binary tensor consists of $2^n$ entries arranged into hypercube format $2 \times 2 \times \cdots \times 2$. There are $n$ ways to flatten such a tensor into a matrix of size $2 \times 2^{n-1}$. For each flattening, $M$, we take the…
A quaternion unit gain graph is a graph where each orientation of an edge is given a quaternion unit, and the opposite orientation is assigned the inverse of this quaternion unit. In this paper, we provide a combinatorial description of the…
A real symmetric matrix $A$ is said to be completely positive if it can be written as $BB^t$ for some (not necessarily square) nonnegative matrix $B$. A simple graph $G$ is called a completely positive graph if every doubly nonnegative…
In this study, we present a new generalization of circulant matrices for the generalized $k$-Horadam numbers, by considering the $g$-circulant matrix $C_{n,g}(H)=g -circ(H_{k,1},H_{k,2},\ldots ,H_{k,n})$. Also, we calculate the spectral…

$k$-diagonal circulant matrices and cyclic banded matrices are widely used in numerical simulations and signal processing of circular linear systems. Algorithms that directly involve or specify linear or quadratic complexity for the…

A generalization of the Dirac equation to the case of affine symmetry, with SL(4,R) replacing SO(1,3), is considered. A detailed analysis of a Dirac-type Poincare-covariant equation for any spin j is carried out, and the related general…
We show that Dirac 4-spinors admit an entirely equivalent formulation in terms of 2-spinors defined over the split-quaternions. In this formalism, a Lorentz transformation is represented as a $2 \times 2$ unitary matrix over the…
We introduce two equations expressing the inverse determinant of a full rank matrix $\mathbf{A} \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times n}$ in terms of expectations over matrix-vector products. The first relationship is $|\mathrm{det} (\mathbf{A})|^{-1} =…
We revive an approach to solve the Dirac equation originally proposed by Kutzelnigg which makes use of the squared Dirac operator $\hat{\mathfrak{D}}^{2}$. This approach holds the promise to avoid the negative energy solution because the…
The explicit matrix realizations of the reversion anti-automorphism and the spin group depend on the set of matrices chosen to represent a basis of 1 -vectors for a given Clifford algebra. On the other hand, there are iterative procedures…
