We consider real non-symmetric matrices and their factorisation as a product of real symmetric matrices. The number of complex eigenvalues of the original matrix reveals restrictions on such factorisations as we shall prove.
The eigenvectors of an ergodic semigroup of linear normal positive unital maps on a von Neumann algebra are described. Moreover, it is shown by means of examples, that mere positivity of the maps in question is not sufficient for Frobenius…

We formulate conjectures regarding the maximum value and maximizing matrices of the permanent and of diagonal products on the set of stochastic matrices with bounded rank. We formulate equivalent conjectures on upper bounds for these…
We consider certain matrix-products where successive matrices in the product belong alternately to a particular qualitative class or its transpose. The main theorems relate structural and spectral properties of these matrix-products to the…
A commutative associative algebra A with an identity over the field of real numbers which has a basis, where all elements are invertible, is considered in the work. Moreover, among matrixes consisting of the structure constants of A, there…
The following theorem is proved: Suppose $M = (a_{i,j})$ be a $k \times k$ matrix with positive entries and $a_{i,j}a_{i+1,j+1} > 4\cos ^2 \frac{\pi}{k+1} a_{i,j+1}a_{i+1,j} \quad (1 \leq i \leq k-1, 1 \leq j \leq k-1).$ Then $\det M > 0 .$…
We give a minimal list of inequalities characterizing the possible eigenvalues of a set of Hermitian matrices with positive semidefinite sum of bounded rank. This answers a question of A. Barvinok.
Given a polynomial matrix P(x) of grade g and a rational function $x(y) = n(y)/d(y)$, where $n(y)$ and $d(y)$ are coprime nonzero scalar polynomials, the polynomial matrix $Q(y) :=[d(y)]^gP(x(y))$ is defined. The complete eigenstructures of…
Spectral analysis of convex processes has led to many results in the analysis of differential inclusions with a convex process. In particular the characterization of eigenvalues with eigenvectors in a given cone has led to results on…
A survey of recent results in elementary number theory is presented in this paper. Special attention is given to structure and asymptotic properties of certain families of positive integers.
We consider functions $f(v)=\min_{A\in K}{Av}$ and $g(v)=\max_{A\in K}{Av}$, where $K$ is a finite set of nonnegative matrices and by "min" and "max" we mean coordinate-wise minimum and maximum. We transfer known results about properties of…
Our focus is upon {\it irreducible} nonnegative $n$-by-$n$ matrix realizations of nonnegatively realizable spectra or, equivalently, characteristic polynomials. After giving some general background, we make some useful new observations and…
We establish general weak majorization inequalities, relating the leading exponents of the eigenvalues of matrices or matrix polynomials over the field of Puiseux series with the tropical analogues of eigenvalues. We also show that these…
An new eigenvalue $\mathbb R$-linear problem arisen in the theory of metamaterials is stated and constructively investigated for circular non-overlapping inclusions. An asymptotic formula for eigenvalues is deduced when the radii of…
A generalized eigenvector of a hypermatrix, called the universal (U-) eigenvector, is proposed, which extended the notion of diagonal (D-) eigenvectors in the literature. Using the semi-tensor product, the homogeneous U-eigenequation can be…
The concepts of differentiation and integration for matrices are known. As far as each matrix is differentiable, it is not clear a priori whether a given matrix is integrable or not. Recently some progress was obtained for diagonalizable…
This paper discusses further properties of positive partial transpose matrices, with applications towards hyponormal, semi-hyponormal, and $(\alpha,\beta)$-normal matrices. The obtained results present extensions and improvements of many…
We follow a stream of the history of positive matrices and positive functionals, as applied to algebraic sums of squares decompositions, with emphasis on the interaction between classical moment problems, function theory of one or several…
We propose an efficient algorithm for computing a common eigenvector of a finite set of square matrices. As an immediate consequence we obtain an algorithm for determining whether the matrices admit a simultaneous triangulation, and, if so,…
