In this paper we give an explicit solution to the rank constrained matrix approximation in Frobenius norm, which is a generalization of the classical approximation of an m by n matrix A by a matrix of rank k at most.

Let ||.|| be a norm on the algebra M_n of all n-by-n matrices over the complex field C. An interesting problem in matrix theory is that "are there two norms ||.||_1 and ||.||_2 on C^n such that ||A||=max{||Ax||_2: ||x||_1=1} for all A in…

Let $G$ be a linear semisimple Lie group without compact factors. We show that uniform approximate lattices $\Lambda$ arising as regular model sets in $G$ determine the ambient group $G$ in a strong sense. Specifically, for every…

Let $m,n\ge 2$ be integers. Denote by $M_n$ the set of $n\times n$ complex matrices. Let $\|\cdot\|_{(p,k)}$ be the $(p,k)$ norm on $M_{mn}$ with $1\leq k\leq mn$ and $2<p<\infty$. We show that a linear map $\phi:M_{mn}\rightarrow M_{mn}$…

In this paper we discuss possible numerical approaches to reliably check the rank condition rank $G(\lambda) = 0$ for a given rational matrix $G(\lambda)$ in terms of its descriptor system realization. For test purposes we employ functions…

We review a known method of compounding two magic square matrices of order m and n with the all-ones matrix to form two magic square matrices of order mn. We show that these compounded matrices commute. Simple formulas are derived for their…

Given an arbitrary (commutative) field K, let V be a linear subspace of M_n(K) consisting of matrices of rank lesser than or equal to some r<n. A theorem of Atkinson and Lloyd states that, if dim V>nr-r+1 and #K>r, then either all the…

We consider combinatorial maps with fixed combinatorial knot numbered with augmenting numeration called normalized knot. We show that knot's normalization doesn't affect combinatorial map what concerns its generality. Knot's normalization…

Let $G_{n,k}$ denote the complex Grassmann manifold of $k$-dimensional vector subspaces of $\mathbb{C}^n$. Assume $l,k\le \lfloor n/2\rfloor$. We show that, for sufficiently large $n$, any continuous map $h:G_{n,l}\to G_{n,k}$ is rationally…

Given commuting families of Hermitian matrices {A1, ..., Ak} and {B1, ...., Bk}, conditions for the existence of a completely positive map L, such that L(Aj) = Bj for j = 1, ...,k, are studied. Additional properties such as unital or / and…

This paper is the second in the series of papers devoted to the explicit description of linear maps preserving the Cullis' determinant of rectangular matrices with entries belonging to an arbitrary ground field which is large enough. In…

Say that a graph G has property $\mathcal{K}$ if the size of its maximum matching is equal to the order of a minimal vertex cover. We study the following process. Set $N:= \binom{n}{2}$ and let $e_1, e_2, \dots e_{N}$ be a uniformly random…

Let $R$ be any ring containing a non-tivial idempotent element $e$. Let $\Im: R\rightarrow R$ be a mapping such that $\Im(ab)=\Im(b)a+b\Im(a)$ for all $a,b\in R$. In this note, our aim is to show that under some suitable restrictions…

The higher rank numerical range is closely connected to the construction of quantum error correction code for a noisy quantum channel. It is known that if a normal matrix $A \in M_n$ has eigenvalues $a_1, \..., a_n$, then its higher rank…

Fix a commutative ring $\mathbf{k}$, two elements $\beta,\alpha\in\mathbf{k}$ and a positive integer $n$. Let $\mathcal{X}$ be the polynomial ring over $\mathbf{k}$ in the $n(n-1)/2$ indeterminates $x_{i,j}$ for all $1\leq i<j\leq n$.…

This paper investigates the impossibility of certain $({n^2+n+k}_{n+1})$ configurations. Firstly, for $k=2$, the result of \cite{gropp1992non} that $\frac{n^2+n}{2}$ is even and $n+1$ is a perfect square or $\frac{n^2+n}{2}$ is odd and…

Let A and B be matrices of M_n(C). We show that if exp(A)^k exp(B)^l=exp(kA+lB) for all integers k and l, then AB=BA. We also show that if exp(A)^k exp(B)=exp(B)exp(A)^k=exp(kA+B)$ for every positive integer k, then the pair (A,B) has…
