The division between two vectors belonging to the same vector space is obtained by elementary procedures of vector algebra and is defined by a matrix. This representation is obtained for two and three dimensional vector spaces. A new vector…

We consider the set $\mathcal{M}_n(\mathbb Z; H)$ of $n\times n$-matrices with integer elements of size at most $H$ and obtain a new upper bound on the number of matrices from $\mathcal{M}_n(\mathbb Z; H)$ with a given characteristic…

We develop a new, group-theoretic approach to bounding the exponent of matrix multiplication. There are two components to this approach: (1) identifying groups G that admit a certain type of embedding of matrix multiplication into the group…

We study the structure of the algebra of polynomial invariants for the usual conjugation action of the complex special, SO_n, and general, O_n, orthogonal group on the space of traceless n by n complex matrices. (Note that these two…

In this paper, a matrix is said to be prime if the row and column of this matrix are both prime numbers. We establish various necessary and sufficient conditions for developing matrices into the sum of tensor products of prime matrices. For…

An elementary proof of the two-sidedness of the matrix-inverse is given using only linear independence and the reduced row-echelon form of a matrix. In addition, it is shown that a matrix is invertible if and only if it is row-equivalent to…

Let A be an n by n matrix with entries in an arbitrary field, and c_1,...,c_n be scalars. We prove that if A is not a scalar multiple of the identity matrix, then the condition c_1+...+c_n=tr(A) is necessary and sufficient for A to be…

Given a function on diagonal matrices, there is a unique way to extend this to an invariant (by conjugation) function on symmetric matrices. We show that the extension preserves regularity -- that is, if the original function is k times…

The alternate row and column scaling algorithm applied to a positive $n\times n$ matrix $A$ converges to a doubly stochastic matrix $S(A)$, sometimes called the \emph{Sinkhorn limit} of $A$. For every positive integer $n$, a two parameter…

We propose a strategy for the generation of fast and accurate versions of non-commutative recursive matrix multiplication algorithms. To generate these algorithms, we consider matrix and tensor norm bounds governing the stability and…

The sign patterns of inverse doubly-nonnegative matrices are examined. A necessary and sufficient condition is developed for a sign matrix to correspond to an inverse doubly-nonnegative matrix. In addition, for a doubly-nonnegative matrix…

Ordinary binary multiplication of natural numbers can be generalized in a non-trivial way to a ternary operation by considering discrete volumes of lattice hexagons. With this operation, a natural notion of `3-primality' -- primality with…

Let $H:M_m\to M_m$ be a holomorphic function of the algebra $M_m$ of complex $m\times m$ matrices. Suppose that $H$ is orthogonally additive and orthogonally multiplicative on self-adjoint elements. We show that either the range of $H$…

Matrices over the dual numbers are considered. We propose an approach to classify these matrices up to similarity. Some preliminary results on the realization of this approach are obtained. In particular, we produce explicitly canonical…

A matrix pattern is often either a sign pattern with entries in {0,+,-} or, more simply, a nonzero pattern with entries in {0,*}. A matrix pattern A is spectrally arbitrary if for any choice of a real matrix spectrum, there is a real matrix…

The algebra of invariants of d-tuples of n x n skew-symmetric matrices under the action of the orthogonal group by simultaneous conjugation is considered over an infinite field of characteristic different from two. For n=3 and d>0 a minimal…

An $n\times n$ complex matrix $A$ is called coninvolutory if $\bar AA=I_n$ and skew-coninvolutory if $\bar AA=-I_n$ (which implies that $n$ is even). We prove that each matrix of size $n\times n$ with $n>1$ is a sum of 5 coninvolutory…

Algebraic matrix multiplication algorithms are designed by bounding the rank of matrix multiplication tensors, and then using a recursive method. However, designing algorithms in this way quickly leads to large constant factors: if one…

The McCarty Conjecture states that any McCarty Matrix (an $n\times n$ matrix $A$ with positive integer entries and each of the $2n$ row and column sums equal to $n$), can be additively decomposed into two other matrices, $B$ and $C$, such…

We consider the algebra of invariants of $d$-tuples of $n\times n$ matrices under the action of the orthogonal group by simultaneous conjugation over an infinite field of characteristic $p$ different from two. It is well-known that this…
