We derive a matrix model, under unitary similarity, of an $n$-by-$n$ matrix $A$ such that $A, A^2, \ldots, A^k$ ($k\ge 1$) are all partial isometries, which generalizes the known fact that if $A$ is a partial isometry, then it is unitarily…

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…

The connection between the commutativity of a family of $n\times n$ matrices and the generalized joint numerical ranges is studied. For instance, it is shown that ${\cal F}$ is a family of mutually commuting normal matrices if and only if…

Which convex subsets of the complex plane are the numerical range W(A of some matrix A? This paper gives a precise characterization of these sets. In addition to this we show that for any A there exists a symmetric matrix B of the same size…

The joint numerical range $W(F)$ of three hermitian $3$-by-$3$ matrices $F=(F_1,F_2,F_3)$ is a convex and compact subset in $\mathbb{R}^3$. Generically we find that $W(F)$ is a three-dimensional oval. Assuming $\dim(W(F))=3$, every one- or…

We obtain several upper and lower bounds for the numerical radius of sectorial matrices. We also develop several numerical radius inequalities of the sum, product and commutator of sectorial matrices. The inequalities obtained here are…

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…

An $n$-by-$n$ ($n\ge 3$) weighted shift matrix $A$ is one of the form $$[{array}{cccc}0 & a_1 & & & 0 & \ddots & & & \ddots & a_{n-1} a_n & & & 0{array}],$$ where the $a_j$'s, called the weights of $A$, are complex numbers. Assume that all…

It has been shown that if $T$ is a complex matrix, then {\small\begin{align*} \omega(T)&=\frac{1}{n}\sup\left\{|\mathrm{Tr}\ X|;\ X\in W^n(T)\right\}\\ &=\frac{1}{n}\sup\left\{\|X\|_1;\ X\in W^n(T)\right\}\\ &= \sup\left\{ \omega(X);\ X\in…

A presentation of numerical range for rectangular matrices is undertaken in this paper, introducing two different definitions and elaborating basic properties. Then we are extended to the treatment of rank-k numerical range.

The universality hypothesis for quark and lepton mixing matrices (CKM and MNS) is further developed. This hypothesis explains why the CKM is almost diagonal whereas the MNS is almost maximally mixed. If this hypothesis is true, the Dirac CP…

We show that the spectral radius of an $N\times N$ random symmetric matrix with i.i.d. bounded centered but non-symmetrically distributed entries is bounded from above by $ 2 \*\sigma + o(N^{-6/11+\epsilon}), $ where $\sigma^2 $ is the…

By definition, reciprocal matrices are tridiagonal $n$-by-$n$ matrices $A$ with constant main diagonal and such that $a_{i,i+1}a_{i+1,i}=1$ for $i=1,\ldots,n-1$. For $n\leq 6$, we establish criteria under which the numerical range…

Given a topologically free action of a countable group $G$ on a compact metric space $X$, there is a canonical correspondence between continuous 1-cocycles for this group action and diagonal 1-parameter groups of automorphisms of the…

We extend the proof in [M.~Crouzeix and C.~Palencia, {\em The numerical range is a $(1 + \sqrt{2})$-spectral set}, SIAM Jour.~Matrix Anal.~Appl., 38 (2017), pp.~649-655] to show that other regions in the complex plane are $K$-spectral sets.…

The primary aim of this paper is to establish bounds on the joint spectral radius for a finite set of nonnegative matrices based on their diagonal elements. The efficacy of this approach is evaluated in comparison to existing and related…

For any $n$-by-$n$ matrix $A$ of the form \[[\begin{array}{cccc} 0 & A_1 & & \\ & 0 & \ddots & \\ & & \ddots & A_{k-1} \\ & & & 0\end{array}],\] we consider two $k$-by-$k$ matrices \[A'=[\begin{array}{cccc} 0 & \|A_1\| & & \\ & 0 & \ddots &…

In this article we answer a question asked by Chien et al. in arXiv:2304.06050 in which they study the numerical range of weighted cyclic matrices under permutation of their entries. Namely, we are interested in how $w(A_\sigma)$ fluctuates…
