To each associative unitary finite-dimensional algebra over a normal base, we associative a canonical multiplicative function called its determinant. We give various properties of this construction, as well as applications to the topology…
The graph of a real symplectic linear transformation is an R-Lagrangian subspace of a complex symplectic vector space. The restriction of the complex symplectic form is thus purely imaginary and may be expressed in terms of the generating…
We show an explicit formula, with a quite easy deduction, for the exponential matrix $e^{tA}$ of a real square matrix $A$ of order $n\times n$. The elementary method developed requires neither Jordan canonical form, nor eigenvectors, nor…
For every $2n \times 2n$ positive definite matrix $A$ there are $n$ positive numbers $d_1(A) \leq \ldots \leq d_n(A)$ associated with $A$ called the symplectic eigenvalues of $A.$ It is known that $d_m$ are continuous functions of $A$ but…
We prove that any coadjoint orbit with real eigenvalues of a complex semisimple Lie group, equipped with the real part of the canonical holomorphic symplectic form, is symplectomorphic to the cotangent bundle of a (partial) flag manifold.…
We prove a logical implication between two old conjectures stated by Bapat and Sunder about the permanent of positive semidefinite matrices. Although Drury has recently disproved both conjectures, this logical implication yields a…
Let $M$ be an $mn\times mn$ matrix over a commutative ring $R$. Divide $M$ into $m \times m$ blocks. Assume that the blocks commute pairwise. Consider the following two procedures: (1) Evaluate the $n \times n$ determinant formula at these…
Mirsky proved that, for the existence of a complex matrix with given eigenvalues and diagonal entries, the obvious necessary condition is also sufficient. We generalize this theorem to matrices over any field and provide a short proof.…
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…
For every $2n\times 2n$ real positive definite matrix $A,$ there exists a real symplectic matrix $M$ such that $M^TAM=\diag(D,D),$ where $D$ is the $n\times n$ positive diagonal matrix with diagonal entries $d_1(A)\le \cdots\le d_n(A).$ The…
We give an easy proof to show that every complex normal Toeplitz matrix is classified as either of type I or of type II. Instead of difference equations on elements in the matrix used in past studies, polynomial equations with coefficients…
Associated with every $2n\times 2n$ real positive definite matrix $A,$ there exist $n$ positive numbers called the symplectic eigenvalues of $A,$ and a basis of $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$ called the symplectic eigenbasis of $A$ corresponding to…
In this paper we explore determinantal representations of multiaffine polynomials and consequences for the image of various spaces of matrices under the principal minor map. We show that a real multiaffine polynomial has a definite…
The representation theory of semisimple algebraic groups over the complex numbers (equivalently, semisimple complex Lie algebras or Lie groups, or real compact Lie groups) and the question of whether a given representation is symplectic or…
This paper develops a unified analytical framework for determinant identities under finite-rank perturbations of square matrices that remains valid without invertibility assumptions. In contrast to classical inverse-based formulations, the…
The cyclotomic matrix is commonly used to arrange cyclotomic numbers in a convenient format. A natural question is whether the structure of the matrix can reflect properties of these numbers. In this article, we examine cyclotomic numbers…
It is shown that the lattices of flats of boolean representable simplicial complexes are always atomistic, but semimodular if and only if the complex is a matroid. A canonical construction is introduced for arbitrary finite atomistic…
We describe a method for symplectic tracking of charged particles through static electric and magnetic fields. The method can be applied to cases where the fields have a dependence on longitudinal as well as transverse position, and where…
We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for simplicial complexes whose determinantal facet ideals admit reduced Grobner bases under diagonal term orders. Building on and extending foundational results for binomial edge ideals and…
Every metric symplectic Lie algebra has the structure of a quadratic extension. We give a standard model and describe the equivalence classes on the level of corresponding quadratic cohomology sets. Finally, we give a scheme to classify the…
