In this paper, eventually totally positive matrices (i.e. matrices all whose powers starting with some point are totally positive) are studied. We present a new approach to eventual total positivity which is based on the theory of…
Using matrix function theory, Perron-Frobenius theory, combinatorial matrix theory, and elementary number theory, we characterize, classify, and describe in terms of the Jordan canonical form the matrix pth-roots of imprimitive irreducible…
Power nonnegative matrices are defined as complex matrices having at least one nonnegative integer power. We exploit the possibility of deriving a Perron Frobenius-like theory for these matrices, obtaining three main results and drawing…
We discuss several conjectures about the real-rootedness of polynomials whose coefficients are determinants of coefficients of a real-rooted polynomial. We also consider some questions about matrices generalizing totally positive matrices,…
In this note, we characterize matrix functions that preserve the strong Perron-Frobenius property using the real Jordan canonical form of a real matrix.
In this note, simple proofs of certain well-known results involving the positive square root of positive matrices are given.
The study of positive-definite matrices has focused on Hermitian matrices, that is, square matrices with complex (or real) entries that are equal to their own conjugate transposes. In the classical setting, positive-definite matrices enjoy…
We address the general mathematical problem of computing the inverse $p$-th root of a given matrix in an efficient way. A new method to construct iteration functions that allow calculating arbitrary $p$-th roots and their inverses of…
The long run behaviour of linear dynamical systems is often studied by looking at eventual properties of matrices and recurrences that underlie the system. A basic problem that lies at the core of many questions in this setting is the…
We establish a sufficient condition for the ultimate positivity of P-recursive sequences of arbitrary order with a unique dominant root. By additionally verifying finitely many initial terms, the positivity can also be resolved. As an…
That the Perron root of a square nonnegative matrix A varies continuously with the entries in A is a corollary of theorems regarding continuity of eigenvalues or roots of polynomial equations, the proofs of which necessarily involve complex…
We introduce the concept of completely positive roots of completely positive maps on operator algebras. We do this in different forms: as asymptotic roots, proper discrete roots and as continuous one-parameter semigroups of roots. We…
We develop a systematic theory of eventually positive semigroups of linear operators mainly on spaces of continuous functions. By eventually positive we mean that for every positive initial condition the solution to the corresponding Cauchy…
The purpose of this note is to give explicit criteria to determine whether a real generalized Cartan matrix is of finite type, affine type or of hyperbolic type by considering the principal minors and the inverse of the matrix. In…
In this paper, we will derive the real roots of certain sets of matrices with real entries. We will also demonstrate that real orthogonal matrices can have real root or be involutory. Eventually, we will represent idempotent matrices in a…
Lehmer constructs four classes of matrices constructed from roots of unity for which the characteristic polynomials and the $k$-th powers can be determined explicitly. Here we study a class of matrices which arise naturally in…
It is known that for a totally positive (TP) matrix, the eigenvalues are positive and distinct and the eigenvector associated with the smallest eigenvalue is totally nonzero and has an alternating sign pattern. Here, a certain weakening of…
We describe the structure of all continuous Jordan triple endomorphisms of the set $\mathbb{P}_2$ of all positive definite $2\times 2$ matrices thus completing a recent result of ours. We also mention an application concerning sorts of…
Root systems are sets with remarkable symmetries and therefore they appear in many situations in mathematics. Among others, denominator formulae of root systems are very beautiful and mysterious equations which have several meanings from a…
Tubal scalars are usual vectors, and tubal matrices are matrices with every element being a tubal scalar. Such a matrix is often recognized as a third-order tensor. The product between tubal scalars, tubal vectors, and tubal matrices can be…
