Related papers: On the maximum angle between copositive matrices
In 2010, Hiriart-Urruty and Seeger posed the problem of finding the maximal possible angle $\theta_n$ between two copositive matrices of order $n$. They proved that $\theta_2=\frac{3}{4}\pi$. In this paper, we study the maximal angle…
Let $S$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane, $\wp(S)$ be the set of all simple polygons crossing $S$, $\gamma_P$ be the maximum angle of polygon $P \in \wp(S)$ and $\theta =min_{P\in\wp(S)} \gamma_P$. In this paper, we prove that…
In this paper, we derive in a novel approach the possible textures of neutrino mass matrix that can lead to maximal atmospherical mixing angle ($\theta^{}_{23} = \pi/4$) and Dirac CP phase ($\delta = - \pi/2$) in two phenomenologically…
We prove that the maximum determinant of an $n \times n $ matrix, with entries in $\{0,1\}$ and at most $n+k$ non-zero entries, is at most $2^{k/3}$, which is best possible when $k$ is a multiple of 3. This result solves a conjecture of…
Let $U_N$ denote a Haar Unitary matrix of dimension N, and consider the field \[ {\bf U}(z) = \log |\det(1-zU_N)| \] for z in the unit disk. Then, \[ \frac{\max_{|z|=1} {\bf U}(z) -\log N + \frac{3}{4} \log\log N} {\log\log N} \to 0 \] in…
We diagonalize Majorana neutrino mass matrix with the help of PMNS matrix and obtain analytical relations between the mass matrix elements and mixing parameters, viz., three mixing angles- $\theta_{12}, \theta_{23}, \theta_{13}$ and Dirac…
If neutrinos are Dirac, the conditions for cobimaximal mixing, i.e. $\theta_{23}=\pi/4$ and $\delta_{CP}=\pm \pi/2$ in the $3 \times 3$ neutrino mixing matrix, are derived. One example with $A_4$ symmetry and radiative Dirac neutrino masses…
Imagine a polygon-shaped platform $P$ and only one static spotlight outside $P$; which direction should the spotlight face to light most of $P$? This problem occurs in maximising the visibility, as well as in limiting the uncertainty in…
For a tetrahedron, suppose that all internal angles of faces and all dihedral angles are less than a fixed constant $C$ that is smaller than $\pi$. Then, it is said to satisfy the maximum angle condition with the constant $C$. The maximum…
Answering a question of Jiang and Polyanskii as well as Jiang, Tidor, Yao, Zhang, and Zhao, we show the existence of infinitely many angles $\theta$ for which the maximum number of lines in $\mathbb R^n$ meeting at the origin with pairwise…
Let $V$ be a finite dimensional inner product space over $\mathbb{R}$ with dimension $n$, where $n\in \mathbb{N}$, $\wedge^{r}V$ be the exterior algebra of $V$, the problem is to find $\max_{\| \xi \| = 1, \| \eta \| = 1}\| \xi \wedge \eta…
An attempt is made to explore the possibility for deviations of solar mixing angle ($\theta_{12}$) from tri-bimaximal mixings, without sacrificing the predictions of maximal atmospheric mixing angle ($\theta_{23}=\pi/4$) and zero reactor…
For each nonempty integer partition $\pi$, we define the maximal excludant of $\pi$ to be the largest nonnegative integer smaller than the largest part of $\pi$ that is not a part of $\pi$. Let $\sigma\!\operatorname{maex}(n)$ be the sum of…
The bounds on the neutrino mixing angles and CP Dirac phase for an SO(10) model with lopsided mass matrices, arising from the presence of ${\bf 16}_H$ and $\bar{\bf 16}_H$ Higgs representations, are studied by variation of the one real and…
The $\sigma$-irregularity index of a graph is defined as the sum of squared degree differences over all edges and provides a sensitive measure of structural heterogeneity. In this paper, we study the problem of maximizing $\sigma(T)$ among…
We discuss two types of neutrino mass matrices which both give $\theta_{23} = 45^\circ$, i.e., a maximal atmospheric mixing angle. We review three models, based on the seesaw mechanism and on simple extensions of the scalar sector of the…
By analogy with conjectures for random matrices, Fyodorov-Hiary-Keating and Fyodorov-Keating proposed precise asymptotics for the maximum of the Riemann zeta function in a typical short interval on the critical line. In this paper, we…
We estimate the maximum ratio between the $\sigma_t$- and $\sigma$-irregularity for graphs and trees of order $n$, which are respectively bounded by $\Theta(n^{5/2})$ and $n-2$. This answers a question and a conjecture by Filipovski et al.…
It has recently been shown that the phenomenologically successful pattern of cobimaximal neutrino mixing ($\theta_{13} \neq 0$, $\theta_{23} = \pi/4$, and $\delta_{CP} = \pm \pi/2$) may be achieved in the context of the non-Abelian discrete…
