We study trace functions on the form $ t\to\tr f(A+tB) $ where $ f $ is a real function defined on the positive half-line, and $ A $ and $ B $ are matrices such that $ A $ is positive definite and $ B $ is positive semi-definite. If $ f $…
We continue the study of truncated matrix-valued moment problems begun in arXiv:2310.00957. Let $q\in\mathbb{N}$. Suppose that $(\mathcal{X},\mathfrak{X})$ is a measurable space and $\mathcal{E}$ is a finite-dimensional vector space of…
We find further implications of the BMV conjecture, which states that for hermitian matrices A and B, the function Tr exp(A - t B) is the Laplace transform of a positive measure.
The BMV conjecture states that for $n\times n$ Hermitian matrices $A$ and $B$ the function $f_{A,B}(t)=trace{\, } e^{tA+B}$ is exponentially convex. Recently the BMV conjecture was proved by Herbert Stahl. The proof of Herbert Stahl is…
This paper is about the general truncated matrix-valued moment problem. Let $\mathcal{H}_q$ denote the complex Hermitian $q\times q$-matrices, $q\in \mathbb{N}$. Suppose that $(\mathcal{X},\mathfrak{X})$ is a measurable space and…
The BMV conjecture states that for \(n\times n\) Hermitian matrices \(A\) and \(B\) the function \(f_{A,B}(t)=\tr e^{tA+B}\) is exponentially convex. Recently the BMV conjecture was proved by Herbert Stahl. The proof of Herbert Stahl is…
A hermitian matrix can be parametrized by a set consisting of its determinant and the eigenvalues of its submatrices. We established a group of equations which connect these variables with the mixing parameters of diagonalization. These…
Consider a matrix function f defined for Hermitian matrices. The purpose of this paper is two-fold. We derive new results for the absolute structured condition number of the matrix function and we derive new bounds for the perturbation…
We prove the BMV (Bessis, Moussa, Villani, 1975) conjecture, which states that the function t -> Tr exp(A-tB), t \geq 0, is the Laplace transform of a positive measure on [0,\infty) if A and B are n x n Hermitian matrices and B is positive…
Special functions are often defined as a Fourier or Laplace transform of a positive measure, and the positivity of the measure manifests as positive definiteness of certain matrices. The purpose of this expository note is to give a sample…
In this paper, we obtain some new matrix inequalities involving Hadamard product. Also some Hadamard product inequalities for accretive matrices involving the matrix means, positive unital linear maps and matrix concave functions are…
Let $H:M_m\to M_m$ be a holomorphic function of the algebra $M_m$ of complex $m\times m$ matrices. Suppose that $H$ is orthogonally additive and orthogonally multiplicative on self-adjoint elements. We show that either the range of $H$…
Given two Hermitian matrices, $A$ and $B$, we introduce a new type of spectral measure, a $\textit{tracial joint spectral measure}$ $\mu_{A, B}$ on the plane. Existence of this measure implies the following two results: 1) any…
A finitely-additive measure $\lambda $ on an infinite-dimensional real Hilbert space $E$ which is invariant with respect to shifts and orthogonal mappings has been defined. This measure can be considered as the analog of the Lebesgue…
Base on some simple facts of Hadamard product, characterizations of positive definite preserving linear transformations on real symmetric matrix spaces with an additional assumption "$\ra T(E_{ii})=1, i=1,2,..., n$" or "$T(A)>0\to A> 0$",…
Two submatrices $A,D$ of a Hadamard matrix $H$ are called complementary if, up to a permutation of rows and columns, $H=[^A_C{\ }^B_D]$. We find here an explicit formula for the polar decomposition of $D$. As an application, we show that…
We study relations between the eigenvectors of rational matrix functions on the Riemann sphere. Our main result is that for a subclass of functions that are products of two elementary blocks it is possible to represent these relations in a…
The BMV conjecture for traces, which states that $Tr exp(A -\lambda B)$ is the Laplace transform of a positive measure, is shown to be equivalent to two other statements: (i) The polynomial $\lambda\mapsto Tr(A+\lambda B)^p$ has only…
Grade-$d$ measures on a $\sigma$-algebra $\mathcal{A}\subseteq 2^X$ over a set $X$ are generalizations of measures satisfying one of a hierarchy of weak additivity-type conditions initially introduced as interference operators in quantum…
To measure an observable of a quantum mechanical system leaves it in one of its eigenstates and the result of the measurement is one of its eigenvalues. This process is shown to be a computational resource. It allows one, in principle, to…
