We show that the Hausdorff dimension of the spectral measure of a class of deterministic, i. e. nonrandom, block-Jacobi matrices may be determined exactly, improving a result of Zlatos (J. Funct. Anal. 207, 216-252 (2004)).
We discuss several conjectures about the real-rootedness of polynomials whose coefficients are determinants of coefficients of a real-rooted polynomial. We also consider some questions about matrices generalizing totally positive matrices,…
In this paper, we define a matrix which we call Vieta matrix and calculate its determinant: $$ \left( \begin{array}{cccc} 1&1&\cdots&1\\ a_{2}+a_{3}+\cdots+a_{n}&a_{1}+a_{3}+\cdots+a_{n}&\cdots&a_{1}+a_{2}+\cdots+a_{n-1}\\…
