Let $A$ be a positive semidefinite $m\times m$ block matrix with each block $n$-square, then the following determinantal inequality for partial traces holds \[ (\mathrm{tr} A)^{mn} - \det(\mathrm{tr}_2 A)^n \ge \bigl| \det A -…

It is well understood that if one is given a set $X \subset [0,1]$ of $n$ independent uniformly distributed random variables, then $$ \sup_{0 \leq x \leq 1} \left| \frac{\# X \cap [0,x]}{\# X} - x \right| \lesssim \frac{\sqrt{\log{n}}}{…

For positive integers $1 \leq k \leq n$ let $M_n$ be the algebra of all $n \times n$ complex matrices and $M_n^{\le k}$ its subset consisting of all matrices of rank at most $k$. We first show that whenever $k>\frac{n}{2}$, any continuous…

The least square solution of minimum norm of a rectangular linear system of equations can be found out iteratively by using matrix splittings. However, the convergence of such an iteration scheme arising out of a matrix splitting is…

In this note, we show that for each minimal norm $N(\cdot)$ on the algebra $M_n$ of all $n \times n$ complex matrices, there exist norms $\|\cdot\|_1$ and $\|\cdot\|_2$ on ${\mathbb C}^n$ such that $$N(A)=\max\{\|Ax\|_2: \|x\|_1=1, x\in…

Motivated by the Matrix Spencer conjecture, we study the problem of finding signed sums of matrices with a small matrix norm. A well-known strategy to obtain these signs is to prove, given matrices $A_1, \dots, A_n \in \mathbb{R}^{m \times…

As is well known, the smallest possible ratio between the spectral norm and the Frobenius norm of an $m \times n$ matrix with $m \le n$ is $1/\sqrt{m}$ and is (up to scalar scaling) attained only by matrices having pairwise orthonormal…

We give an integrability criterion on a real-valued non-increasing function $\psi$ guaranteeing that for almost all (or almost no) pairs $(A, \textbf{b})$, where $A$ is a real $m\times n$ matrix and $\textbf{b} \in \mathbb{R}^m$, the system…
