Let E_n={x_i=1, x_i+x_j=x_k, x_i*x_j=x_k: i,j,k \in {1,...,n}}. We prove: (1) there is an algorithm that for every computable function f:N-->N returns a positive integer m(f), for which a second algorithm accepts on the input f and any…
We give a short proof of a recent result of Drury on the positivity of a $3\times 3$ matrix of the form $(\|R_i^*R_j\|_{\rm tr})_{1 \le i, j \le 3}$ for any rectangular complex (or real) matrices $R_1, R_2, R_3$ so that the multiplication…
We give a formula for the determinant of an $n\times n$ matrix with entries from a commutative ring with unit. The formula can be evaluated by a "straight-line program" performing only additions, subtractions and multiplications of ring…
The alternate row and column scaling algorithm applied to a positive $n\times n$ matrix $A$ converges to a doubly stochastic matrix $S(A)$, sometimes called the \emph{Sinkhorn limit} of $A$. For every positive integer $n$, a two parameter…
In this article, we study the fluctuations of the random variable: $$ {\mathcal I}_n(\rho) = \frac 1N \log\det(\Sigma_n \Sigma_n^* + \rho I_N),\quad (\rho>0) $$ where $\Sigma_n= n^{-1/2} D_n^{1/2} X_n\tilde D_n^{1/2} +A_n$, as the…
Motivated by the Koml\'os conjecture in combinatorial discrepancy, we study the discrepancy of random matrices with $m$ rows and $n$ independent columns drawn from a bounded lattice random variable. It is known that for $n$ tending to…
We consider a general class of $N\times N$ random matrices whose entries $h_{ij}$ are independent up to a symmetry constraint, but not necessarily identically distributed. Our main result is a local semicircle law which improves previous…
Inspired by a recent paper of I. Grama, E. Le Page and M. Peign\'e, we consider a sequence $(g_n)_{n \geq 1}$ of i.i.d. random $d\times d$-matrices with non-negative entries and study the fluctuations of the process $(\log \vert g_n\cdots…
In this paper we present a criterion for the covering condition of the generalized random matrix ensemble, which enable us to verify the covering condition for the seven classes of generalized random matrix ensemble in an unified and…
An $m \times n$ matrix $\mathsf{A}$ with column supports $\{S_i\}$ is $k$-separable if the disjunctions $\bigcup_{i \in \mathcal{K}} S_i$ are all distinct over all sets $\mathcal{K}$ of cardinality $k$. While a simple counting bound shows…
Let $n$ be a natural number and $\mathcal{M}$ a set of $n \times n$-matrices over the nonnegative integers such that the joint spectral radius of $\mathcal{M}$ is at most one. We show that if the zero matrix $0$ is a product of matrices in…
We consider a basic computational task of finding $s$ planted rank-1 $m \times n$ matrices in a linear subspace $\mathcal{U} \subseteq \mathbb{R}^{m \times n}$ where $\dim(\mathcal{U}) = R \ge s$. The work of Johnston-Lovitz-Vijayaraghavan…
For a random variable $N = 0, 1, 2, \ldots$ we study the following question: When does the sum of $N$ many independent and identically distributed copies of a random variable $X$ have the same law a a nontrivial rescaling of $X$? We show…
We count mxn non-negative integer matrices (contingency tables) with prescribed row and column sums (margins). For a wide class of smooth margins we establish a computationally efficient asymptotic formula approximating the number of…
The number of $n \times n$ matrices whose entries are either -1, 0, or 1, whose row- and column- sums are all 1, and such that in every row and every column the non-zero entries alternate in sign, is proved to be $[1!4! >...…
Let $A_n$ be an $n$ by $n$ random matrix whose entries are independent real random variables with mean zero, variance one and with subexponential tail. We show that the logarithm of $|\det A_n|$ satisfies a central limit theorem. More…
For standard algorithms verifying positive definiteness of a matrix $A\in\mathbb{M}_n(\mathbb{R})$ based on Sylvester's criterion, the computationally pessimistic case is this when $A$ is positive definite. We present two algorithms…
Given a matrix A \in R^{m x n}, we present a randomized algorithm that sparsifies A by retaining some of its elements by sampling them according to a distribution that depends on both the square and the absolute value of the entries. We…
We consider $n\times n$ Hermitian matrices with i.i.d. entries $X_{ij}$ whose tail probabilities $\mathbb {P}(|X_{ij}|\geq t)$ behave like $e^{-at^{\alpha}}$ for some $a>0$ and $\alpha \in(0,2)$. We establish a large deviation principle for…
We introduce a procedure that solves the decision problem whether a given matroid M is a gammoid. The procedure consists of three pieces: First, we introduce a notion of a valid matroid tableau which captures the current state of knowledge…
