A vertex k-ranking is a labeling of the vertices of a graph with integers from 1 to k so any path connecting two vertices with the same label will pass through a vertex with a greater label. The rank number of a graph is defined to be the…

The set of matrices of given positive semidefinite rank is semialgebraic. In this paper we study the geometry of this set, and in small cases we describe its boundary. For general values of positive semidefinite rank we provide a conjecture…

Let D be a domain with quotient field K and A a D-algebra. We call a polynomial with coefficients in K that maps every element of A to an element of A "integer-valued on A". For commutative A we also consider integer-valued polynomials in…

We define Euclid polynomials $E_{k+1}(\lambda) = E_{k}(\lambda)\left(E_{k}(\lambda) - 1\right) + 1$ and $E_{1}(\lambda) = \lambda + 1$ in analogy to Euclid numbers $e_k = E_{k}(1)$. We show how to construct companion matrices…

A general, {\em rectangular} kernel matrix may be defined as $K_{ij} = \kappa(x_i,y_j)$ where $\kappa(x,y)$ is a kernel function and where $X=\{x_i\}_{i=1}^m$ and $Y=\{y_i\}_{i=1}^n$ are two sets of points. In this paper, we seek a low-rank…

We consider a special symmetric matrix and obtain a similar formula as the one obtained by Weyl's criterion. Some applications of the formula are given, where we give a new way to calculate the integral of $\ln\Gamma(x)$ on $[0,1]$, and we…

The ranks and kernels of generalized Hadamard matrices are studied. It is proven that any generalized Hadamard matrix $H(q,\lambda)$ over $F_q$, $q>3$, or $q=3$ and $\gcd(3,\lambda)\not =1$, generates a self-orthogonal code. This result…

We construct type A partially-symmetric Macdonald polynomials $P_{(\lambda \mid \gamma)}$, where $\lambda \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}^{n-k}$ is a partition and $\gamma \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}^k$ is a composition. These are polynomials which are…

We introduce the notion of rank of multivector in Clifford geometric algebras of arbitrary dimension without using the corresponding matrix representations and using only geometric algebra operations. We use the concepts of characteristic…

This note is to indicate the new sphere of applicability of the method developed by Mlak as well as by the author. Restoring those ideas is summoned by current developments concerning $K$-spectral sets on numerical ranges.

We present the theory of linear rank-metric codes from the point of view of their fundamental parameters. These are: the minimum rank distance, the rank distribution, the maximum rank, the covering radius, and the field size. The focus of…

The Lagrange spectrum $L$ is the set of finite values of the best approximation constants $k(\alpha)=\limsup_{|p|,|q|\to \infty}|q(q\alpha-p)|^{-1}$, where $\alpha\in \mathbb{R}\setminus \mathbb{Q}$. It is a classical result that the pairs…

We analyze the joint numerical range $W$ of three hermitian matrices of order four. In the generic case, this three-dimensional convex set has a smooth boundary. We analyze non-generic structures. Fifteen possible classes regarding the…

In a previous paper, we derived necessary and sufficient conditions for the invertibility of square submatrices of the Pascal upper triangular matrix. To do so, we established a connection with the two-point Birkhoff interpolation problem.…

We study the discrete dynamics of standard (or left) polynomials $f(x)$ over division rings $D$. We define their fixed points to be the points $\lambda \in D$ for which $f^{\circ n}(\lambda)=\lambda$ for any $n \in \mathbb{N}$, where…
