When $0\lt \rho \lt 1$, the Kac-Murdock-Szeg\"o matrix $K_n(\rho)=\left[\rho^{\lvert j-k \rvert}\right]_{j,k=1}^n$ is a Toeplitz correlation matrix with many applications and very well known spectral properties. We study the eigenvalues and…

For $k,m,n\in \mathbb{N}$, we consider $n^k\times n^k$ random matrices of the form $$ \mathcal{M}_{n,m,k}(\mathbf{y})=\sum_{\alpha=1}^m\tau_\alpha {Y_\alpha}Y_\alpha^T,\quad…

For a fixed $n\ge2$, consider an $n\times n$ matrix $M$ whose entries are random integers bounded by $k$ in absolute value. In this paper, we examine the probability that $M$ is singular (hence has eigenvalue 0), and the probability that…

Consider a family of infinite tri--diagonal matrices of the form $L+ zB,$ where the matrix $L$ is diagonal with entries $L_{kk}= k^2,$ and the matrix $B$ is off--diagonal, with nonzero entries $B_{k,{k+1}}=B_{{k+1},k}= k^\alpha, 0 \leq…

We study pairs of matrices $A,B\in GL_n({\mathbb C})$ such that the eigenvalues of $A$, of $B$ and of the product $AB$ are specified in advance. We show that the space of such pairs $(A,B)$ under simultaneous conjugation has dimension…

This article studies the equation $[A,B]^k = {\rm Id}_n$ for matrices over $\mathbb{C}$, characterizing the pairs $(k,n)$ for which solutions exist via a classical result of Lam and Leung on sums of roots of unity. The problem is next…

The rectangular multiparameter eigenvalue problem (RMEP) involves rectangular coefficient matrices (usually with more rows than columns) and may potentially have no solution in its original form. A minimal perturbation framework is proposed…

We find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the n by n matrix with (i,j) entry \binom(i-1,n-j), establishing a conjecture of Peele and Stanica. Curiously, the eigenvectors can be chosen to form a matrix which is its own inverse.

An $n\times n$ matrix is said to have a self-interlacing spectrum if its eigenvalues $\lambda_k$, $k=1,\ldots,n$, are distributed as follows $$ \lambda_1>-\lambda_2>\lambda_3>\cdots>(-1)^{n-1}\lambda_n>0. $$ A method for constructing sign…

We analyze statistical properties of complex eigenvalues of random matrices $\hat{A}$ close to unitary. Such matrices appear naturally when considering quantized chaotic maps within a general theory of open linear stationary systems with…

A linear mapping upon real n-dimensional space, where the dimension n is odd, has a real eigenvalue-eigenvector pair. The corresponding statement for complex vector spaces holds true for any dimension n, but should be easy to demonstrate…

This paper is about a generalization of famous Inoue's surfaces. Let $M$ be a matrix in $SL(2n+1,\mathbb{Z})$ having only one real eigenvalue which is simple. We associate to $M$ a complex manifold $T_M$ of complex dimension $n+1$. This…

The first author with B. Sturmfels studied the variety of matrices with eigenvectors in a given linear subspace, called Kalman variety. We extend that study from matrices to symmetric tensors, proving in the tensor setting the…

We consider the set $\mathcal{M}_n(\mathbb Z; H)$ of $n\times n$-matrices with integer elements of size at most $H$ and obtain a new upper bound on the number of matrices from $\mathcal{M}_n(\mathbb Z; H)$ with a given characteristic…

The work considers the set $\Lambda_n^k$ of all $n\times n$ binary matrices having the same number of $k$ units in each row and each column. The article specifically focuses on the matrices whose rows and columns are sorted…

The Kalman variety of a linear subspace in a vector space consists of all endomorphism that possess an eigenvector in that subspace. We study the defining polynomials and basic geometric invariants of the Kalman variety.

We show that the set of $n \times n$ complex symmetric matrix pencils of rank at most $r$ is the union of the closures of $\lfloor r/2\rfloor +1$ sets of matrix pencils with some, explicitly described, complete eigenstructures. As a…

If $A$ is a $2n \times 2n$ real positive definite matrix, then there exists a symplectic matrix $M$ such that $M^TAM = \left [ \begin{array}{cc} D & O \\ O & D \end{array} \right ]$ where $D= \diag (d_1 (A), \ldots, d_n(A))$ is a diagonal…

An $m \times (n+1)$ multiplicity matrix is a matrix $M = ( \mu_{i,j} )$ with rows enumerated by $i \in \{ 1,\ 2, \ldots, m \}$ and columns enumerated by $j \in \{ 0,1,\ldots, n \}$ whose coordinates are nonnegative integers satisfying the…

We study the eigenvalue problem for some special class of anti-triangular matrices. Though the eigenvalue problem is quite classical, as far as we know, almost nothing is known about properties of eigenvalues for anti-triangular matrices.…
