In this paper, prime as well as primitive Kumjian-Pask algebras $\mathrm{KP}_R(\Lambda)$ of a row-finite $k$-graph $\Lambda$ over a unital commutative ring $R$ are completely characterized in graph-theoretic and algebraic terms. By applying…
Let A be a finite subset of N^n and R[x]_A be the space of real polynomials whose monomial powers are from A. Let K be a compact basic semialgebraic set of R^n such that R[x]_A contains a polynomial that is positive on K. Denote by P_A(K)…
A well-known theorem of Fillmore says that if $A\in\operatorname{M}_{n}(K)$ is a non-scalar matrix over a field $K$ and $\gamma_{1},\dots,\gamma_{n}\in K$ are such that $\gamma_{1}+\dots+\gamma_{n}=\operatorname{Tr}(A)$, then $A$ is…
The following hypothesis was put forward by Goreinov, Tyrtyshnikov and Zamarashkin in \cite{GTZ1997}. For arbitrary real $n \times k$ matrix with orthonormal columns a sufficiently "good" $k \times k$ submatrix exists. "Good" in the sense…
For relatively prime positive integers $u_0$ and $r$ and for $0\le k\le n$, define $u_k:=u_0+kr$. Let $L_n:={\rm lcm}(u_0, u_1, ..., u_n)$ and let $a, l\ge 2$ be any integers. In this paper, we show that, for integers $\alpha \geq a$ and…
The $k$-rank numerical range $\Lambda_{k}(A)$ is expressed via an intersection of a countable family of numerical ranges $\{F(M^{*}_{\nu}AM_{\nu})\}_{\nu\in\mathbb{N}}$ with respect to $n\times (n-k+1)$ isometries $M_{\nu}$. This…
Specializing properly the parameters contained in the maximal cyclic representation of the non-restricted A-type quantum algebra at roots of unity, we find the unique primitive vector in it. We show that the submodule generated by the…
Let A= (a_{ij}) be a non-negative integer k x k matrix. A is a homogeneous matrix if a_{ij} + a_{kl}=a_{il} + a_{kj} for any choice of the four indexes. We ask: If A is a homogeneous matrix and if F is a form in C[x_1, \dots x_n] with…
Let $V$ be a vector space of rectangular $n\times k$ matrices annihilating the Cullis' determinant. We show that $\dim(V) \le (n-1)k$, extending Dieudonn{\'{e}}'s result on the dimension of vector spaces of square matrices annihilating the…
A k-composition of n is a sequence of length k of positive integers summing up to n. In this paper, we investigate the number of k-compositions of n satisfying two natural coprimality conditions. Namely, we first give an exact asymptotic…
Let Q be a non-singular quadratic form with integer coefficients. When Q is indefinite we provide new upper bounds for the least non-trivial integral solution to the equation Q=0. When Q is positive definite we provide improved upper bounds…
Under GRH, any element in the multiplicative group of a number field $K$ that is globally primitive (i.e., not a perfect power in $K^*$) is a primitive root modulo a set of primes of $K$ of positive density. For elliptic curves $E/K$ that…
For positive integers $1 \leq k \leq n$ let $M_n$ be the algebra of all $n \times n$ complex matrices and $M_n^{\le k}$ its subset consisting of all matrices of rank at most $k$. We first show that whenever $k>\frac{n}{2}$, any continuous…
We show that for all k = 1,...,n the absolute value of the product of the k largest eigenvalues of an n-by-n matrix A is bounded from above by the product of the k largest tropical eigenvalues of the matrix |A| (entrywise absolute value),…
Let $I_k = [(2k-1)^2, (2k+1)^2)$ for $k \geq 1$. Starting from the odd-composite matrix $(b_{ij})$ with $b_{ij} = (2i-1)(2j-1)$, introduced by the author in [1], we define for each odd integer $n$ the \emph{matrix multiplicity} $r(n)$, the…
We show that if $k$ is a countable field, then there exists a finitely generated, infinite-dimensional, primitive algebraic $k$-algebra $A$ whose Gelfand-Kirillov dimension is at most six. In addition to this we construct a two-generated…
A real symmetric n times n matrix is called copositive if the corresponding quadratic form is non-negative on the closed first orthant. If the matrix fails to be copositive there exists some non-negative certificate for which the quadratic…
For every positive integer k, it is shown that there exists a positive definite diagonal quaternary integral quadratic form that represents all positive integers except for precisely those which lie in k arithmetic progressions. For k=1,…
