Pencils of Hankel matrices whose elements have a joint Gaussian distribution with nonzero mean and not identical covariance are considered. An approximation to the distribution of the squared modulus of their determinant is computed which…

We study the eigenvalues $\lambda_1,\lambda_2,\lambda_3,\ldots$ (ordered by modulus) of the integral kernel $K(x,y) := \frac{1}{2} + \lfloor \frac{1}{x y}\rfloor - \frac{1}{x y}$ ($0<x,y\leq 1$). This kernel is of interest in connection…

The low-complexity assumption in linear systems can often be expressed as rank deficiency in data matrices with generalized Hankel structure. This makes it possible to denoise the data by estimating the underlying structured low-rank…
