Given an appropriate class of structured matrices S; we characterize matrices X and B for which there exists a matrix A \in S such that AX = B and determine all matrices in S mapping X to B. We also determine all matrices in S mapping X to…
Low-rank pseudoinverses are widely used to approximate matrix inverses in scalable machine learning, optimization, and scientific computing. However, real-world matrices are often observed with noise, arising from sampling, sketching, and…
We consider the problem of computing the nearest matrix polynomial with a non-trivial Smith Normal Form. We show that computing the Smith form of a matrix polynomial is amenable to numeric computation as an optimization problem.…
We describe several algorithms for matrix completion and matrix approximation when only some of its entries are known. The approximation constraint can be any whose approximated solution is known for the full matrix. For low rank…
This book is about solving matrix nearness problems that are related to eigenvalues or singular values or pseudospectra. These problems arise in great diversity in various fields, be they related to dynamics, as in questions of robust…
Meaningful comparison between sets of observations often necessitates alignment or registration between them, and the resulting optimization problems range in complexity from those admitting simple closed-form solutions to those requiring…
We treat the problem of the Frobenius distance evaluation from a given matrix $ A \in \mathbb R^{n\times n} $ with distinct eigenvalues to the manifold of matrices with multiple eigenvalues. On restricting considerations to the rank $ 1 $…
We study the problem of finding the nearest $\Omega$-stable matrix to a certain matrix $A$, i.e., the nearest matrix with all its eigenvalues in a prescribed closed set $\Omega$. Distances are measured in the Frobenius norm. An important…
Assume that $X$ is a connected $(q+1)$-regular undirected graph of finite order $n$. Let $A$ denote the adjacency matrix of $X$. Let $\lambda_1=q+1>\lambda_2\geq \lambda_3\geq \ldots \geq \lambda_n$ denote the eigenvalues of $A$. The…
A $n\times n$ matrix $A$ has normal defect one if it is not normal, however can be embedded as a north-western block into a normal matrix of size $(n+1)\times (n+1)$. The latter is called a minimal normal completion of $A$. A construction…
This work concerns the distance in 2-norm from a matrix polynomial to a nearest polynomial with a specified number of its eigenvalues at specified locations in the complex plane. Perturbations are allowed only on the constant coefficient…
One of the aims of this paper is to solve an open problem of Lovasz about relations between graph spectra and cut-distance. The paper starts with several inequalities between two versions of the cut-norm and the two largest singular values…
We investigate the relation between the spectrum of a non-normal matrix and the norm of its resolvent. We provide spectral estimates for the resolvent of matrices whose largest singular value is bounded by $1$ (so-called Hilbert space…
A new approach to solving eigenvalue optimization problems for large structured matrices is proposed and studied. The class of optimization problems considered is related to computing structured pseudospectra and their extremal points, and…
This paper investigates the spectral norm version of the column subset selection problem. Given a matrix $\mathbf{A}\in\mathbb{R}^{n\times d}$ and a positive integer $k\leq\text{rank}(\mathbf{A})$, the objective is to select exactly $k$…
A central challenge in machine learning is to understand how noise or measurement errors affect low-rank approximations, particularly in the spectral norm. This question is especially important in differentially private low-rank…
The article is devoted to different aspects of the question "What can be done with a matrix by low rank perturbation?" It is proved that one can change a geometrically simple spectrum drastically by a rank 1 permutation, but the situation…
We give an approximation algorithm for non-uniform sparsest cut with the following guarantee: For any $\epsilon,\delta \in (0,1)$, given cost and demand graphs with edge weights $C, D$ respectively, we can find a set $T\subseteq V$ with…
Let $G$ be an irregular graph on $n$ vertices with maximum degree $\Delta$ and diameter $D$. We show that \Delta-\lambda_1>\frac{1}{nD} where $\lambda_1$ is the largest eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of $G$. We also study the effect of…
We study subset selection for matrices defined as follows: given a matrix $\matX \in \R^{n \times m}$ ($m > n$) and an oversampling parameter $k$ ($n \le k \le m$), select a subset of $k$ columns from $\matX$ such that the pseudo-inverse of…
