Given a finite set $\{M_0,\dots,M_{d-1}\}$ of nonnegative $2\times 2$ matrices and a nonnegative column-vector $V$, we associate to each $(\omega_n)\in\{0,\dots,d-1\}^\mathbb N$ the sequence of the column-vectors…

Positivity properties of the Hadamard powers of the matrix $\begin{bmatrix}1+x_ix_j\end{bmatrix}$ for distinct positive real numbers $x_1,\ldots,x_n$ and the matrix $\begin{bmatrix}|\cos((i-j)\pi/n)|\end{bmatrix}$ are studied. In…

Let $R$ be a commutative additively idempotent semiring. In this paper, some properties and characterizations for permanents of matrices over $R$ are established, and several inequalities for permanents are given. Also, the adjiont matrices…

This paper is devoted to a generalization of a Hadamard type inequality for the permanent of a complex square matrix. Our proof is based on a non-trivial extension of a technique used in Carlen, Lieb and Loss (Methods and Applications of…

Positive semidefinite Hermitian matrices that are not fully specified can be completed provided their underlying graph is chordal. If the matrix is positive definite the completion can be uniquely characterized as the matrix that maximizes…

In a preceding article, we have studied a generalization of the problem of finding a martingale on a manifold whose terminal value is known. This article completes the results obtained in the first article by providing uniqueness and…

If $A$ is a $2n \times 2n$ real positive definite matrix, then there exists a symplectic matrix $M$ such that $M^TAM = \left [ \begin{array}{cc} D & O \\ O & D \end{array} \right ]$ where $D= \diag (d_1 (A), \ldots, d_n(A))$ is a diagonal…

Let $m,n>1$ be integers and $\mathbb{P}_{n,m}$ be the point set of the projective $(n-1)$-space (defined by [2]) over the ring $\mathbb{Z}_m$of integers modulo $m$. Let $A_{n,m}=(a_{uv})$ be the matrix with rows and columns being labeled by…

Eigenvalues inequalities involving (log) convex/concav functions and Hermitian matrices, positive unital maps are considered. Simple proofs of Bhatia-Kittaneh inequality and Naimark dilation theorem are given.

We investigate the properties of positive definite and positive semi-definite symmetric matrices within the framework of symmetrized tropical algebra, an extension of tropical algebra adapted to ordered valued fields. We focus on the…

We establish a factorisation theorem for invertible, cross-symmetric, totally nonnegative matrices, and illustrate the theory by verifying that certain cases of Holte's Amazing Matrix are totally nonnegative.

In this note we generalize the trace inequality derived by [1] to the case where the number of terms of the sum (denoted by K) is arbitrary.

For positive integers $n,n'$, we give a combinatorial characterization for the set of quadratic inequalities on minors that are valid for all $n\times n'$ totally nonnegative matrices. This is obtained as a consequence from our earlier…

In this paper, we study spectral properties of generalized weighted Hilbert matrices. In particular, we establish results on the spectral norm, determinant, as well as various relations between the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of such…

We introduce a particular nonlinear generalization of quantum mechanics which has the property that it is exactly solvable in terms of the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Hamiltonian of the usual linear quantum mechanics problem. We…

For any primitive matrix $M\in\mathbb{R}^{n\times n}$ with positive diagonal entries, we prove the existence and uniqueness of a positive vector $\mathbf{x}=(x_1,\dots,x_n)^t$ such that $M\mathbf{x}=(\frac{1}{x_1},\dots,\frac{1}{x_n})^t$.…

We find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the n by n matrix with (i,j) entry \binom(i-1,n-j), establishing a conjecture of Peele and Stanica. Curiously, the eigenvectors can be chosen to form a matrix which is its own inverse.

This note deals with a simultaneous approximation of several matrices by a finite family of diagonalizable matrices satisfying an additional condition for the spectrum of a matrix product. That is the simplicity of all eigenvalues.

We obtain general, exact formulas for the overlaps between the eigenvectors of large correlated random matrices, with additive or multiplicative noise. These results have potential applications in many different contexts, from quantum…
