In this paper, another proof of Pell identities is presented by using the determinant of tridiagonal matrices. It is calculated via the Laplace expansion.
We describe the recursive algorithmic procedure to compute the stabilizers of the group of complex orthogonal matrices with respect to the action of similarity on the set of all symmetric matrices. Futhermore, lower bounds for dimensions of…
Denote $\Sigma_n$ and $Q_n$ the set of all $n \times n$ symmetric and skew-symmetric matrices over a field $\mathbb{F}$, respectively, where $char(\mathbb{F})\neq 2$ and $\lvert \mathbb{F} \rvert \geq n^2+1$. A characterization of…
We introduce a remarkable new family of norms on the space of $n \times n$ complex matrices. These norms arise from the combinatorial properties of symmetric functions, and their construction and validation involve probability theory,…
We consider three forms of composition of matroids, each of which extends the category of bimatroids to a rigid monoidal category. Many well-known constructions are functorial or defined by morphisms in these categories. Motivating examples…

We exhibit explicit expressions, in terms of components, of discriminants, determinants, characteristic polynomials and polynomial identities for matrices of higher rank. We define permutation tensors and in term of them we construct…
In this paper, we consider matrices whose inverses are tridiagonal Z--matrices. Based on a characterization of symmetric tridiagonal matrices by Gantmacher and Krein, we show that a matrix is the inverse of a tridiagonal Z--matrix if and…
The orthogonal group acts on the space of several $n\times n$ matrices by simultaneous conjugation. For an infinite field of characteristic different from two, relations between generators for the algebra of invariants are described. As an…
It is known that every complex square matrix with nonnegative determinant is the product of positive semi-definite matrices. There are characterizations of matrices that require two or five positive semi-definite matrices in the product.…
We study characteristic polynomials of symmetric matrices with entries ${i+j\choose i}$ the binomial coefficients, over finite fields.
We show existence of centrally symmetric maps on surfaces all of whose faces are quadrangles and pentagons for each orientable genus $g \geq 0$. We also show existence of centrally symmetric maps on surfaces all of whose faces are hexagons…
We show some definite integrals connecting to infinite series, studied in Ramanujan's paper, titled "On question 330 of Professor Sanjana". We present few recursive methods to evaluate these definite integrals in various cases and we…
We introduce a novel parametrization of the correlation matrix. The reparametrization facilitates modeling of correlation and covariance matrices by an unrestricted vector, where positive definiteness is an innate property. This…
For the family of the orthogonal quantum matrix algebras we investigate the structure of their characteristic subalgebras -- special commutative subalgebras, which for the subfamily of the reflection equation algebras appear to be central.…
We give a combinatorial interpretation of the determinant of a matrix as a generating function over Brauer diagrams in two different but related ways. The sign of a permutation associated to its number of inversions in the Leibniz formula…
Orthogonal sets of idempotents are used to design sets of unitary matrices, known as constellations, such that the modulus of the determinant of the difference of any two distinct elements is greater than $0$. It is shown that unitary…
We introduce and investigate the resolvent order, which is a binary relation on the set of firmly nonexpansive mappings. It unifies well-known orders introduced by Loewner (for positive semidefinite matrices) and by Zarantonello (for…
We introduce a new notion of the determinant, called symmetrized determinant, for a square matrix with the entries in an associative algebra $\AA$. The monomial expansion of the symmetrized determinant is obtained from the standard…
We develop a procedure for determining whether a square complex matrix is unitarily equivalent to a complex symmetric (i.e., self-transpose) matrix. Our approach has several advantages over existing methods. We discuss these differences and…
