Motivated by the problems of computing sample covariance matrices, and of transforming a collection of vectors to a basis where they are sparse, we present a simple algorithm that computes an approximation of the product of two n-by-n real…

We show how, given a straight-line program with $g$ rules for a binary string $B$ of length $n$, in $O(g^{2 / 3} n^{4 / 3})$ time we can build a linear-space index such that, given $m$ and $c$, in O(1) time we can determine whether there is…

We give a numerical characterization of mutual orthogonality (that is, complementarity) for subalgebras. In order to give such a characterization for mutually orthogonal subalgebras $A$ and $B$ of the $k \times k$ matrix algebra…

In this paper, we construct a mixed-base number system over the generalized symmetric group $G(m,1,n)$, which is a complex reflection group with a root system of type $B_n^{(m)}$. We also establish one-to-one correspondence between all…

Let $\textrm{Mat}_2(\mathbb{R})$ be the set of $2 \times 2$ matrices with real entries. For any $\varepsilon>0$ and any finitely--supported probability measure $\mu$ on $\textrm{Mat}_2(\mathbb{R})$, we prove that either \[ T(\mu) = \sum_{X,…

We consider the problem of finding the set of permutations $r_j$ of $\{1,\cdots , n\}$ such that $\sum_{i=1}^n \prod_{j=1}^k r_j(i)$ is maximized or minimized. While the set of permutations maximizing this value are easily determined,…

Let $A$ be an associative unital algebra, $B_k$ its successive quotients of lower central series and $N_k$ the successive quotients of ideals generated by lower central series. The geometric and algebraic aspects of $B_k$ and $N_k$ have…

Gauss's arithmetic-geometric mean (AGM) which is described by two variables iteration $(a_n, b_n)\rightarrow (a_{n+1}, b_{n+1})$ by $a_{n+1}=(a_n+b_n)/2,\ b_{n+1}=\sqrt{a_nb_n}$. We extend it to three variables iteration $(a_n, b_n,…

Let $ X $ be an $ m \times n $ matrix of distinct indeterminates over a field $ K $, where $ m \le n $. Set the polynomial ring $ K[X] := K[X_{ij} : 1 \le i \le m, 1 \le j \le n] $. Let $ 1 \le k < l \le n $ be such that $ l - k + 1 \ge m…

Let $B_n$ be the Euclidean unit ball in ${\mathbb R}^n$ given by the inequality $\|x\|\leq 1$, $\|x\|:=\left(\sum\limits_{i=1}^n x_i^2\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}$. By $C(B_n)$ we mean the space of continuous functions $f:B_n\to{\mathbb R}$ with…

We prove a deterministic analogue of Rudelson's sampling theorem for sums of positive semidefinite matrices. Let $A_1,\dots,A_m$ be positive semidefinite \(d\times d\) matrices, and let $\lambda_1,\dots,\lambda_m \ge 0$ satisfy \[…

Let K be an infinite field such that its characteristic is not 2. We show that, for every $A\in\mathcal{M}_n(K)$ such that $\mathrm{rank}(A)\geq n/2$, there exists $B\in\mathcal{M}_n(K)$ such that $B$ is similar to $A$ and $A+B$ is…

Let s,t,m,n be positive integers such that sm=tn. Let M(m,s;n,t) be the number of m x n matrices over {0,1,2,...} with each row summing to s and each column summing to t. Equivalently, M(m,s;n,t) counts 2-way contingency tables of order m x…

Aim of this article is to prove the inequality $n \sum_{i=1}^{n} a_ib_i \leq \sum_{i=1}^{n} a_i \sum_{i=1}^n b_i$ when $a_i$ are $n$ increasing positive real numbers and $b_i$ are $n$ decreasing real numbers. We also prove generalizations…
