Recall that an excedance of a permutation $\pi$ is any position $i$ such that $\pi_i > i$. Inspired by the work of Hopkins, McConville and Propp (Elec. J. Comb., 2017) on sorting using toppling, we say that a permutation is toppleable if it…

We present an algorithm to solve the Simultaneous Unitary Similarity(S.U.S) problem which is to check if there exists a Similarity transformation determined by a Unitary $U$ s.t $UA_lU^*=B_l$, $l \in \{1,...,p\}$, where $A_l$ and $B_l$ are…

Let a_1,...,a_m be positive real numbers. Besser and Moree considered weighted numbers of -1,+1 solutions of the linear inequality |a_i-a_j| < e_ka_k < a_i+a_j, with e_k=-1 of 1 and k running over the integers 1,...,m with i and j skipped.…

We give the criterion for the irreducibility, the Schur irreducibility and the indecomposability of the set of two $n\times n$ matrices $\Lambda_n$ and $A_n$ in terms of the subalgebra associated with the "support" of the matrix $A_n$,…

Let $\mu_p(A,B,t)=(tA^p+(1-t)B^p)^{1/p}$ denote the weighted power mean between positive operators $A$ and $B$. We show that the function $t\to \|A-\mu_p(A,B,t)\|_2$ is monotonically decreasing whenever $1/2 \leq p \leq 1$. Hence showing…

We consider the problem of determining which matrices are permutable to be supmodular. We show that for small dimensions any matrix is permutable by a universal permutation or by a pair of permutations, while for higher dimensions no…

Matrix weights satisfying a Muckenhoupt $A_p$-condition relative to a family of anisotropic balls in $\mathbb{R}^d$ defined by a pseudo-metric are studied. It is shown that such matrix weights satisfy a doubling condition and a reverse…

Let $p$ be a prime, let $d \geq 1$ be an integer and $A$ be the algebra of square matrices of size $d$ over the field of order $p$. Let $P, Q \in A[x_1, \dots x_n]$ be polynomials in $n$ indeterminates with coefficients in $A$, such that…

The independence number of a square matrix $A$, denoted by $\alpha(A)$, is the maximum order of its principal zero submatrices. Let $S_n^{+}$ be the set of $n\times n$ nonnegative symmetric matrices with zero trace. Denote by $J_n$ the…

For $n\ge 5$, we prove that every $n\times n$ matrix $M=(a_{i,j})$ with entries in $\{-1,1\}$ and absolute discrepancy $|\mathrm{disc}(M)|=|\sum a_{i,j}|\le n$ contains a zero-sum square except for the split matrix (up to symmetries). Here,…

For an $n$-by-$n$ complex matrix $A$, we define its zero-dilation index $d(A)$ as the largest size of a zero matrix which can be dilated to $A$. This is the same as the maximum $k$ ($\ge 1$) for which 0 is in the rank-$k$ numerical range of…

We discuss irreducible highest weight representations of the sl(2) loop algebra and reducible indecomposable ones in association with the sl(2) loop algebra symmetry of the six-vertex model at roots of unity. We formulate an elementary…

We propose new positive definite kernels for permutations. First we introduce a weighted version of the Kendall kernel, which allows to weight unequally the contributions of different item pairs in the permutations depending on their ranks.…

In this article, we consider birational equivalence of exponential matrices. In characteristic zero, we give a birational classification of exponential matrices of size $n$-by-$n$ $(n \geq 2)$, which consists of two types. And in positive…

In this note, we discuss the shift retrieval problems, both classical and compressed, and provide connections between them using circulant matrices. We review the properties of circulant matrices necessary for our calculations and then show…

In the area of symbolic-numerical computation within computer algebra, an interesting question is how "close" a random input is to the "critical" ones, like the singular matrices in linear algebra or the polynomials with multiple roots for…

An exchangeable random matrix is a random matrix with distribution invariant under any permutation of the entries. For such random matrices, we show, as the dimension tends to infinity, that the empirical spectral distribution tends to the…

For any $n\ge 2$ and fixed $k\ge 1$, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for an arbitrary nonzero square matrix in the matrix ring $\mathbb{M}_n(\mathbb{F})$ to be written as a sum of an invertible matrix $U$ and a nilpotent matrix…
