Sets of $d\times d$ matrices sharing a common invariant cone enjoy special properties, which are widely used in applications. However, finding this cone or even proving its existence/non-existence is hard. This problem is known to be…
In this paper we analyze the geometric structure and properties of a certain class of subsets of $\Bbb R^d$, known in the literature as 1-multicones, and here simply called multicones, which are quite natural generalizations of the…
We consider (self-adjoint) families of infinite matrices of noncommutative random variables such that the joint distribution of their entries is invariant under conjugation by a free quantum group. For the free orthogonal and…
It is well known that the ring of polynomial invariants of a reductive group is finitely generated. However, it is difficult to give strong upper bounds on the degrees of the generators, especially over fields of positive characteristic. In…
We introduce the notion of one-sided mapping cones of positive linear maps between matrix algebras. These are convex cones of maps that are invariant under compositions by completely positive maps from either the left or right side. The…
We consider multiplicative semigroups of real dxd matrices. A semigroup S is called Perron if each of its matrices has a Perron eigenvalue, i.e., an eigenvalue equal to the spectral radius. If all matrices of S leave a proper convex cone…
Convenient parameterizations of matrices in terms of vectors transform (certain classes of) matrix equations into covariant (hence rotation-invariant) vector equations. Certain recently introduced such parameterizations are tersely…

A problem that is frequently encountered in a variety of mathematical contexts, is to find the common invariant subspaces of a single, or set of matrices. A new method is proposed that gives a definitive answer to this problem. The key idea…
Factorizations over cones and their duals play central roles for many areas of mathematics and computer science. One of the reasons behind this is the ability to find a representation for various objects using a well-structured family of…
We propose an efficient algorithm for computing a common eigenvector of a finite set of square matrices. As an immediate consequence we obtain an algorithm for determining whether the matrices admit a simultaneous triangulation, and, if so,…
We exhibit a set of generating relations for the modular invariant ring of a vector and a covector for the two-dimensional general linear group over a finite field.
In the monotone integer dualization problem, we are given two sets of vectors in an integer box such that no vector in the first set is dominated by a vector in the second. The question is to check if the two sets of vectors cover the…
A generalization of the definition of an oscillatory matrix based on the theory of cones is given in this paper. The positivity and simplicity of all the eigenvalues of a generalized oscillatory matrix are proved. The classes of generalized…
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,…
Two parameter families of plane conics are called nets of conics. There is a natural group action on the vector space of nets of conics, namely the product of the group reparametrizing the underlying plane, and the group reparametrizing the…
We use representation theory to construct spaces of matrices of constant rank. These spaces are parametrized by the natural representation of the general linear group or the symplectic group. We present variants of this idea, with more…
A large number matrix optimization problems are described by orthogonally invariant norms. This paper is devoted to the study of variational analysis of the orthogonally invariant norm cone of symmetric matrices. For a general orthogonally…
