Let $\Lambda$ be the limiting smallest eigenvalue in the general (\beta, a)-Laguerre ensemble of random matrix theory. Here \beta>0, a >-1; for \beta=1,2,4 and integer a, this object governs the singular values of certain rank n Gaussian…

We study the spectral measure of large Euclidean random matrices. The entries of these matrices are determined by the relative position of $n$ random points in a compact set $\Omega_n$ of $\R^d$. Under various assumptions we establish the…

We study the class of Hankel matrices for which the $k\times k$-block-matrices are positive semi-definite. We prove that a $k\times k$-block-matrix has non zero determinant if and only if all $k\times k$-block matrices have non zero…

In this note we consider SDEs of the type $\mathrm{d} X_t=[F (X_t) -A X_t] \mathrm{d} t +D \mathrm{d} W_t$ under the assumptions that $A$'s eigenvalues are all of positive real parts and $F (\cdot)$ has slower-than-linear growth rate. It is…

In this paper, we study approximate Hadamard matrices, that is, well-conditioned $n\times n$ matrices with all entries in $\{\pm1\}$. We show that the smallest-possible condition number goes to $1$ as $n\to\infty$, and we identify some…

In this paper we improve the bounds for the Carath\'eodory number, especially on algebraic varieties and with small gaps (not all monomials are present). We provide explicit lower and upper bounds on algebraic varieties, $\mathbb{R}^n$, and…

We study the behaviour of the smallest possible constants $d_n$ and $c_n$ in Hardy's inequalities $$ \sum_{k=1}^{n}\Big(\frac{1}{k}\sum_{j=1}^{k}a_j\Big)^2\leq d_n\,\sum_{k=1}^{n}a_k^2, \qquad (a_1,\ldots,a_n) \in \mathbb{R}^n $$ and $$…

We consider the lower bound of nodal sets of Steklov eigenfunctions on smooth Riemannian manifolds with boundary--the eigenfunctions of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. Let $N_\lambda$ be its nodal set. Assume that zero is a regular value of…

Given all moments of the marginals of a measure on Rn, one provides (a) explicit bounds on its support and (b), a numerical scheme to compute the smallest box that contains the support. It consists of solving a hierarchy of generalized…

In this paper, we study the eigenvalues of the GCD matrix $(S_n)$ and the LCM matrix $[S_n]$ defined on $S_n=\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$. We present upper and lower bounds for the smallest and the largest eigenvalues of $(S_n)$ and $[S_n]$ in terms…

The largest eigenvalue of a matrix is always larger or equal than its largest diagonal entry. We show that for a large class of random Laplacian matrices, this bound is essentially tight: the largest eigenvalue is, up to lower order terms,…

The solutions of an indeterminate Hamburger moment problem can be parameterised using the Nevanlinna matrix of the problem. The entries of this matrix are entire functions of minimal exponential type, and any growth less than that can…

Given a definite nonnegative matrix $A \in M_n (C)$, we study the minimal index of A: $I(A) = \max \{\lambda \ge 0 : A\circ B \ge \lambda B$ for all $0\le B\}$, where $A\circ B$ denotes the Hadamard product $(A\circ B)_{ij} = A_{ij}…

Large H-selfadjoint random matrices are considered. The matrix $H$ is assumed to have one negative eigenvalue, hence the matrix in question has precisely one eigenvalue of nonpositive type. It is showed that this eigenvalue converges in…
