Some monotone increasing sequences of the lower bounds for the minimum eigenvalue of $M$-matrices are given. It is proved that these sequences are convergent and improve some existing results. Numerical examples show that these sequences…
We introduce a new notion of the determinant, called symmetrized determinant, for a square matrix with the entries in an associative algebra $\AA$. The monomial expansion of the symmetrized determinant is obtained from the standard…
The main contribution of this dissertation is the introduction of new or improved approximation algorithms and data structures for several similarity search problems. We examine the furthest neighbor query, the annulus query, distance…
We study the structured distance to singularity for a given regular matrix pencil $A+sE$, where $(A,E)\in \mathbb S \subseteq (\mathbb C^{n,n})^2$. This includes Hermitian, skew-Hermitian, $*$-even, $*$-odd, $*$-palindromic, T-palindromic,…
Linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) are ubiquitous in modern control theory, as well as in a variety of other fields in science and engineering. Their analytic centers, i.e. the maximum determinant elements of the feasible set spanned by…
Eigenvalue estimates that are optimal in some sense have self-evident appeal and leave estimators with a sense of virtue and economy. So, it is natural that ongoing searches for effective strategies for difficult tasks such as estimating…
We consider a rectangular grid induced by the south-west records from the planar Poisson point process in $R^2_+$. A random symmetry property of the matrix whose entries are the areas of tiles of the grid implies cute multivariate…
We introduce a new approach to the classification of operator identities, based on basic concepts from the theory of algebraic operads together with computational commutative algebra applied to determinantal ideals of matrices over…
A novel approach is proposed to establish a sharp upper bound on the expected supremum of a separable martingale random field, serving as an alternative to classical universal chaining-based methods. The proposed approach begins by deriving…
In the classic "Concrete Math", by Graham, Patashnik and Knuth, it is stated that "The numbers in Pascal's triangle satisfy, practically speaking, infinitely many identities, so it is not too surprising that we can find some surprising…
In this paper, we revisit the problem of classifying real algebraic and semialgebraic sets by their topological types, focusing on establishing the effectiveness of bounds rather than deriving new quantitative estimates. Building on Hardt's…
We formulate conjectures regarding the maximum value and maximizing matrices of the permanent and of diagonal products on the set of stochastic matrices with bounded rank. We formulate equivalent conjectures on upper bounds for these…
A reasonably complete theory of the approximation of an irrational by rational fractions whose numerators and denominators lie in prescribed arithmetic progressions is developed in this paper. Results are both, on the one hand, from a…
We present a novel class of real symmetric matrices in arbitrary dimension $d$, linearly dependent on a parameter $x$. The matrix elements satisfy a set of nontrivial constraints that arise from asking for commutation of pairs of such…
A systematic procedure for generating certain identities involving elementary symmetric functions is proposed. These identities, as particular cases, lead to new identities for binomial and q-binomial coefficients.
We study existence and universality of scaling limits for the eigenvalues of a random normal matrix, in particular at points on the boundary of the spectrum. Our approach uses Ward's equation, which is an identity satisfied by the 1-point…
A question going back to Halmos asks when two approximately commuting matrices of a certain kind are close to exactly commuting matrices of the same kind. It has long been known that there is a winding number obstruction for approximately…
In this paper we present some new upper bounds of the Cusa-Huygens and the Huygens approximations. Bounds are obtained in the forms of some polynomial and some rational functions.
The statistical shape analysis called Procrustes analysis minimizes the distance between matrices by similarity transformations. The method returns a set of optimal orthogonal matrices, which project each matrix into a common space. This…
Given two sets $x_1^{(1)},\ldots,x_{n_1}^{(1)}$ and $x_1^{(2)},\ldots,x_{n_2}^{(2)}\in\mathbb{R}^p$ (or $\mathbb{C}^p$) of random vectors with zero mean and positive definite covariance matrices $C_1$ and $C_2\in\mathbb{R}^{p\times p}$ (or…
