Let R be the ring of S-integers of an algebraic function field (in one variable) over a perfect field, where S is finite and not empty. It is shown that for every positive integer N there exist elements of R that can not be written as a sum…

A nonempty finite set of positive integers A is relatively prime if gcd(A) = 1 and it is relatively prime to n if gcd(A [ fng) = 1. The number of nonempty subsets of A which are relatively prime to n is \Phi(A, n) and the number of such…

The rank of a graph G is defined to be the rank of its adjacency matrix A(G). In this paper we characterize all connected triangle-free graphs with rank 6.

The completely positive rank is an analogue of topological covering dimension, defined for nuclear C*-algebras via completely positive approximations. These may be thought of as simplicial approximations of the algebra, which leads to the…

For a planar graph with a given f-vector $(f_{0}, f_{1}, f_{2}),$ we introduce a cubic polynomial whose coefficients depend on the f-vector. The planar graph is said to be real if all the roots of the corresponding polynomial are real. Thus…

This paper discusses the left and right ranks of quaternion matrices with Hankel structure. While they are in general different for arbitrary quaternion matrices, we show that the left and right ranks of quaternion Hankel matrices are…

In this paper we count the number of some particular quintuple persymmetric rank i matrices over F_2.

A matrix (and any associated linear system) will be referred to as structured if it has a small displacement rank. It is known that the inverse of a structured matrix is structured, which allows fast inversion (or solution), and reduced…

The strength of a multivariate homogeneous polynomial is the minimal number of terms in an expression as a sum of products of lower-degree homogeneous polynomials. Partition rank is the analogue for multilinear forms. Both ranks can drop…

The rank of a bimatrix game is defined as the rank of the sum of the payoff matrices of the two players. The rank of a game is known to impact both the most suitable computation methods for determining a solution and the expressive power of…

For an $n \times n$ matrix $M$ with entries in $\mathbb{Z}_2$ denote by $R(M)$ the minimal rank of all the matrices obtained by changing some numbers on the main diagonal of $M$. We prove that for each non-negative integer $k$ there is a…

This paper describes a new algorithm for computing Nonnegative Low Rank Matrix (NLRM) approximation for nonnegative matrices. Our approach is completely different from classical nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) which has been studied…

We observe that the E-resultant of a very ample rank 2 vector bundle E on a real projective curve (with no real points) is nonnegative when restricted to the space of real sections. Moreover, we show that if E has a section vanishing at…

Every $n$-tuple in $\mathbb{F}^{n}$ has a first non-zero entry and a last non-zero entry. What do the positions of such entries in the elements of a subspace W of $\mathbb{F}^{n}$ reveal about W? It turns out, a great deal! This insight…

We study the case of a real homogeneous polynomial $P$ whose minimal real and complex decompositions in terms of powers of linear forms are different. We prove that, if the sum of the complex and the real ranks of $P$ is at most $…

Let G be a connected reductive group defined over a finite field F_q. We give a parametrization of the irreducible representations of G(F_q) in terms of (twisted) categorical centres of various monoidal categories associated to G. (Results…

A real square matrix $A$ of order $n \times n~ (n \geq 3)$ is called an $F_0$-matrix, if it is a $Z$-matrix (off-diagonal entries nonpositive), all of whose principal submatrices of orders at most $n-2$ are $M$-matrices while there is at…

In this work, we characterize matrices of linear forms and constant rank, demonstrating that, under some natural assumptions, they are always associated with a syzygy bundle that fits into a (partially linear) resolution. Furthermore, this…

We examine so-called rank function equations and their solutions consisting of non-nilpotent matrices. Secondly, we present some geometrical properties of the set of solutions to certain rank function equations in the nilpotent case.

Let $W_{k,n}^{i}(m)$ denote a matrix with rows and columns indexed by the $k$-subsets and $n$-subsets, respectively, of an $m$-element set. The row $S$, column $T$ entry of $W_{k,n}^{i}(m)$ is $1$ if $|S \cap T| = i$, and is $0$ otherwise.…
