We explore the asymptotic convergence and nonasymptotic maximal inequalities of supermartingales and backward submartingales in the space of positive semidefinite matrices. These are natural matrix analogs of scalar nonnegative…
We characterize the mixed discriminant of positive semi definite matrices using its most basic properties. As a corollary we establish its minimality among non negative and multi additive functionals.
We give an overview of certain aspects of tractability analysis of multivariate problems. This paper is not intended to give a complete account of the subject, but provides an insight into how the theory works for particular types of…
In this article, I introduce a group-theoretical method to prove positivity of certain linear combinations (with coefficients generally lying in $\mathbb{C}$) of exponential functions under a set of semidefinite linear constraints. The…
We compute analytically the probability distribution and moments of the sum and product of the non-zero eigenvalues and singular values of random matrices with (i) non-negative entries, (ii) fixed rank, and (iii) prescribed sums of the…
For each Hermitian matrix, we prove that instead of the leading principal minors some of their sums can be used in the leading principal minors criterion and in other inertia problems.
We derive inclusion regions for the eigenvalues of matrix polynomials expressed in a general polynomial basis, which can lead to significantly better results than traditional bounds. We present several applications to engineering problems.
The aim of this note is to show that certain number theoretic inequalities due to Nesbitt and Shapiro have noncommutative counterparts involving positive definite matrices.
Consider an N x N matrix A for which zero is a defective eigenvalue. In this case, the algebraic multiplicity of the zero eigenvalue is greater than the geometric multiplicity. We show how an inflated (N+1) x (N+1) matrix L can be…
The study of solving the inverse eigenvalue problem for nonnegative matrices has been around for decades. It is clear that an inverse eigenvalue problem is trivial if the desirable matrix is not restricted to a certain structure. Provided…
Much effort has been spent on characterizing the spectrum of the non-backtracking matrix of certain classes of graphs, with special emphasis on the leading eigenvalue or the second eigenvector. Much less attention has been paid to the…
We study various convex functions on $R^n$ associated with positive definite matrices. This yiels some exotic Holder matrix inequalities.
In this version small mistakes are corrected and the exposition is changed as suggested by the referee (to appear in Canadian Journal of Mathematics). The first main result of the paper is a criterion for a partially commutative group $\GG$…
For partially ordered sets $X$ we consider the square matrices $M^{X}$ with rows and columns indexed by linear extensions of the partial order on $X$. Each entry $\left( M^{X}\right)_{PQ}$ is a formal variable defined by a pedestal of the…
A matrix is apportionable if it is similar to a matrix whose entries have equal moduli. This paper shows that all nilpotent matrices and all matrices with rank at most half their order are apportionable. General results are established and…
We resolve an algebraic version of Schoenberg's celebrated theorem [Duke Math.J., 1942] characterizing entrywise matrix transforms that preserve positive definiteness. Compared to the classical real and complex settings, we consider…
By viewing non-commutative polynomials, that is, elements in free associative algebras, in terms of linear representations, we generalize Horner's rule to the non-commutative (multivariate) setting. We introduce the concept of Horner…
The paper discusses progress in understanding statistical properties of complex eigenvalues (and corresponding eigenvectors) of weakly non-unitary and non-Hermitian random matrices. Ensembles of this type emerge in various physical…
Products, multiplicative Chern characters, and finite coefficients, are unarguably among the most important tools in algebraic K-theory. Although they admit numerous different constructions, they are not yet fully understood at the…
Theory of matrix factorizations is useful to study hypersurfaces in commutative algebra. To study noncommutative hypersurfaces, which are important objects of study in noncommutative algebraic geometry, we introduce a notion of…
