A hermitian matrix can be parametrized by a set consisting of its determinant and the eigenvalues of its submatrices. We established a group of equations which connect these variables with the mixing parameters of diagonalization. These…
We study the existence and characterization properties of compact Hermitian operators C on a separable Hilbert space H such that ||C|| is less or equal than || C + D ||, for all D in D(K(H)). This property is equivalent to || C || =…
The main purpose of this paper is to englobe some new and known types of Hermitian block-matrices $M=\begin{pmatrix} A \& X\\ {X^*} \& B\end{pmatrix}$ satisfying or not the inequality $\|M\|\le \|A+B\|$ for all symmetric norms
Hermitian mass matrices for the up and down quarks with texture zeroes but with the minimum number of parameters, ten, are investigated. We show how these {\em minimum parameter} forms can be obtained from a general set of hermitian…
We give a simple proof of the fact that every diagonalizable operator that has a real spectrum is quasi-Hermitian and show how the metric operators associated with a quasi-Hermitian Hamiltonian are related to the symmetry generators of an…
Pseudo-hermitian matrices are matrices hermitian with respect to an indefinite metric. They can be thought of as the truncation of pseudo-hermitian operators, defined over some Krein space, together with the associated metric, to a finite…
We use symbolic expressions for traces of positive integer powers of a Hermitian operator (or, equivalently, coefficients of corresponding characteristic polynomial) to find solutions for the problems as follows: Factorization of…
The completely positive maps, a generalization of the nonnegative matrices, are a well-studied class of maps from $n\times n$ matrices to $m\times m$ matrices. The existence of the operator analogues of doubly stochastic scalings of…
We study the minimality of $n\times n$ Hermitian matrices $A$ respect to a $C^*$-subalgebra $\mathcal{B}$ of $M_n(\mathbb{C})$ in the spectral norm, that is \[\|A\|\leq \|A+B\|,\ \text{ for every } B\in \mathcal{B}.\] We generalize the…
Building on the classification of all characteristic polynomials of integer symmetric matrices having small span (span less than 4), we obtain a classification of small-span polynomials that are the characteristic polynomial of a Hermitian…
We obtain tight lower bounds for the trace norm $\Vert \cdot \Vert_1$ of some matrices with diagonal zero, in terms of the entry-wise $L^1$-norm (denoted by $\Vert \cdot \Vert_{(1)}$). It is shown that on the space of nonzero real symmetric…
An entirely quantum mechanical approach to diagonalize hermitean matrices has been presented recently. Here, the genuinely quantum mechanical approach is considered in detail for (2x2) matrices. The method is based on the measurement of…
Conjugation covariants of matrices are applied to study the real algebraic variety consisting of complex Hermitian matrices with a bounded number of distinct eigenvalues. A minimal generating system of the vanishing ideal of degenerate…
We formulate the issue of minimality of self-adjoint operators on a Hilbert space as a semi-definite problem, linking the work by Overton in [1] to the characterization of minimal hermitian matrices. This motivates us to investigate the…
The notions of weak and strong minimizability of a matrix intertwining operator are introduced. Criterion of strong minimizability of a matrix intertwining operator is revealed. Criterion and sufficient condition of existence of a constant…
We consider a correlated $N\times N$ Hermitian random matrix with a polynomially decaying metric correlation structure. By calculating the trace of the moments of the matrix and using the summable decay of the cumulants, we show that its…
We study certain pairs of subspaces $V$ and $W$ of $\mathbb{C}^n$ we call supports that consist of eigenspaces of the eigenvalues $\pm\|M\|$ of a minimal hermitian matrix $M$ ($\|M\|\leq \|M+D\|$ for all real diagonals $D$). For any pair of…
The Schur-Horn theorem is a well-known result that characterizes the relationship between the diagonal elements and eigenvalues of a symmetric (Hermitian) matrix. In this paper, we extend this theorem by exploring the eigenvalue…
Dual quaternions can represent rigid body motion in 3D spaces, and have found wide applications in robotics, 3D motion modelling and control, and computer graphics. In this paper, we introduce three different right linear independency for a…
Answering a question raised by S. Friedland, we show that the possible eigenvalues of Hermitian matrices (or compact operators) A, B, and C with C <= A + B are given by the same inequalities as in Klyachko's theorem for the case where C = A…
