We consider the problem of writing real polynomials as determinants of symmetric linear matrix polynomials. This problem of algebraic geometry, whose roots go back to the nineteenth century, has recently received new attention from the…

First, we prove that the set of $n\times n$ complex matrices is the closure of a certain open subset whose elements have a very specific canonical form under congruence, which is uniquely determined up to the values of some parameters, but…

In this paper, we study the characters of two classes of P-polynomial table algebras using tridiagonal matrices. To this end, we obtain some results about the eigen-structure of special tridiagonal matrices. We also find a recursive…

We construct a weight matrix for the 3D Ising model satisfying the so-called twisted tetrahedron equation. The result is based on the theory of the n-simplicial complex and the invented recursion procedure on the space of n-simplex…

A new class of simple symmetric digraphs called $\mathcal{D}$ is defined and studied here. Any digraph in $\mathcal{D}$ has the property that each non-pendant vertex is adjacent to at least one pendant vertex. A graph theoretical…

Planar coincidence site lattices and modules with N-fold symmetry are well understood in a formulation based on cyclotomic fields, in particular for the class number one case, where they appear as certain principal ideals in the…

In this work, we prove that any symplectic matrix can be factored into no more than 9 unit triangular symplectic matrices. This structure-preserving factorization of the symplectic matrices immediately reveals two well-known features that,…

We propose a numerical method, based on the shift-and-invert power iteration, that answers whether a symmetric matrix is positive definite ("yes") or not ("no"). Our method uses randomization. But, it returns the correct answer with high…

Base on some simple facts of Hadamard product, characterizations of positive definite preserving linear transformations on real symmetric matrix spaces with an additional assumption "$\ra T(E_{ii})=1, i=1,2,..., n$" or "$T(A)>0\to A> 0$",…

Gaussian and Chiral Beta-Ensembles, which generalise well known orthogonal (Beta=1), unitary (Beta=2), and symplectic (Beta=4) ensembles of random Hermitian matrices, are considered. Averages are shown to satisfy duality relations like…

R. Redheffer described an $n\times n$ matrix of 0's and 1's the size of whose determinant is connected to the Riemann Hypothesis. We describe the permutations that contribute to its determinant and evaluate its permanent in terms of integer…

A new determinant inequality of positive semidefinite matrices is discovered and proved by us. This new inequality is useful for attacking and solving a variety of optimization problems arising from the design of wireless communication…

We lift the constraint of a diagonal representation of the Hamiltonian by searching for square integrable bases that support a tridiagonal matrix representation of the wave operator. Doing so results in exactly solvable problems with a…

In this work the interplay between matrix biorthogonal polynomials with respect to a matrix of linear functionals, the $k$-th associated matrix polynomials and the second kind matrix functions, is studied in terms of quasideterminants. A…

In this work, we study the properties of a pentadiagonal symmetric matrix with perturbed corners. More specifically, we present explicit expressions for characterizing when this matrix is non-negative and positive definite in two special…

We introduce the concept of reflexive moment functional in two variables and the definition of reflexive orthogonal polynomial system. Also reverse matrices and their interesting algebraic properties are studied. Reverse matrices and…

We study hyperbolic polynomials with nice symmetry and express them as the determinant of a Hermitian matrix with special structure. The goal of this paper is to answer a question posed by Chien and Nakazato in 2015. By properly modifying a…

We prove the determinant connectivity matrix formula. Mathematically, the proof introduces novel techniques based on an algebraic approach and connectivity properties. Although this is the second part of a previous paper and has its…

We give a new method for the evaluation of a class of integrals of rational symmetric functions in N pairs of variables {x_a, y_a}_{a=1,... N} arising in coupled matrix models, valid for a broad class of two-variable measures. The result is…

A relationship between the tetrahedron equation for maps and the consistency property of integrable discrete equations on $\mathbb{Z}^3$ is investigated. Our approach is a generalization of a method developed in the context of Yang-Baxter…
