We study the class of Hankel matrices for which the $k\times k$-block-matrices are positive semi-definite. We prove that a $k\times k$-block-matrix has non zero determinant if and only if all $k\times k$-block matrices have non zero…
We consider Hankel determinants of the sequence of Catalan numbers modulo 2 (interpreted as integers 0 and 1) and more generally Hankel determinants where the sum over all permutations reduces to a single signed permutation.
In this paper we consider two related objects: singular positive semidefinite Hankel block--matrices and associated degenerate truncated matrix Hamburger moment problems. The description of all solutions of a degenerate matrix Hamburger…
We obtain the explicit evaluations of the Hankel determinants of the formal power series $\prod_{k\geq 0}(1+Jx^{3^{k}})$ where $J={(\sqrt{-3}-1)}/2$, and prove that the sequence of Hankel determinants is an aperiodic automatic sequence…
Graham and Winkler derived a formula for the determinant of the distance matrix of a full-dimensional set of $n + 1$ points $\{ x_{0}, x_{1}, \ldots , x_{n} \}$ in the Hamming cube $H_{n} = ( \{ 0,1 \}^{n}, \ell_{1} )$. In this article we…
A Hankel tensor is called a strong Hankel tensor if the Hankel matrix generated by its generating vector is positive semi-definite. It is known that an even order strong Hankel tensor is a sum-of-squares tensor, and thus a positive…
In this note, we study the asymptotics of the determinant $\det(I_N - \beta H_N)$ for $N$ large, where $H_N$ is the $N\times N$ restriction of a Hankel matrix $H$ with finitely many jump discontinuities in its symbol satisfying $\|H\|\leq…
The purpose of this paper is to compute asymptotically Hankel determinants for weights that are supported in a semi-infinite interval.The main idea is to reduce the problem to determinants of other operators whose determinant asymptotics…
In a paper from 2016 D. R. Yafaev considers Hankel operators associated with Hamburger moment sequences q_n and claims that the corresponding Hankel form is closable if and only if the moment sequence tends to 0. The claim is not correct,…
We show that the Hankel determinants of a generalized Catalan sequence satisfy the equations of the elliptic sequence. As a consequence, the coordinates of the multiples of an arbitrary point on the elliptic curve are expressed by the…
We obtain large n asymptotics for products of powers of the absolute values of the characteristic polynomials in the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble of n\times n matrices. Our results can also be interpreted as asymptotics of the determinant of a…
Matrices with displacement structure such as Pick, Vandermonde, and Hankel matrices appear in a diverse range of applications. In this paper, we use an extremal problem involving rational functions to derive explicit bounds on the singular…
In this paper, we use the tools of Gr\"{o}bner bases and combinatorial secant varieties to study the determinantal ideals $I_t$ of the extended Hankel matrices. Denote by $c$-chain a sequence $a_1,\...,a_k$ with $a_i+c<a_{i+1}$ for all…
We consider the moment space $\mathcal{M}_n$ corresponding to $p \times p$ real or complex matrix measures defined on the interval $[0,1]$. The asymptotic properties of the first $k$ components of a uniformly distributed vector $(S_{1,n},…
Let $A$ and $B$ be complex numbers, and let $(w_n)_{n\ge0}$ be a sequence of complex numbers with $w_{n+1}=Aw_n-Bw_{n-1}$ for all $n=1,2,3,\ldots$. When $w_0=0$ and $w_1=1$, the sequence $(w_n)_{n\ge0}$ is just the Lucas sequence…
We establish a new connection between moments of $n \times n$ random matrices $X_n$ and hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials. Specifically, we consider moments $\mathbb{E}\mathrm{Tr} X_n^{-s}$ as a function of the complex variable $s \in…
For a variety of finite groups $\mathbf H$, let $\overline{\mathbf H}$ denote the variety of finite semigroups all of whose subgroups lie in $\mathbf H$. We give a characterization of the subsets of a finite semigroup that are pointlike…
For any field k and any integers m,n with 0 <= 2m <= n+1, let W_n be the k-vector space of sequences (x_0,...,x_n), and let H_m be the subset of W_n consisting of the sequences that satisfy a degree-m linear recursion, that is, for which…
Hankel tensors arise from signal processing and some other applications. SOS (sum-of-squares) tensors are positive semi-definite symmetric tensors, but not vice versa. The problem for determining an even order symmetric tensor is an SOS…
Pencils of Hankel matrices whose elements have a joint Gaussian distribution with nonzero mean and not identical covariance are considered. An approximation to the distribution of the squared modulus of their determinant is computed which…
