We investigate the dynamics of a single deformable self-propelled particle which undergoes a spinning motion in a two-dimensional space. Equations of motion are derived from the symmetry argument for three kinds of variables. One is a…
We introduce the warping matrix which is a new description of oriented knots from a viewpoint of warping degree.
A sequence of large invertible matrices given by a small random perturbation around a fixed diagonal and positive matrix induces a random dynamics on a high-dimensional sphere. For a certain class of rotationally invariant random…
The article considers arrowhead and diagonal-plus-rank-one matrices in F^(nxn) where F in R,C or H. H is a non-commutative field of quaternions. We give unified formulas for fast matrix-vector multiplications, determinants, and inverses for…
Sequential recommender systems are an important and demanded area of research. Such systems aim to use the order of interactions in a user's history to predict future interactions. The premise is that the order of interactions and…
Random matrices are used in fields as different as the study of multi-orthogonal polynomials or the enumeration of discrete surfaces. Both of them are based on the study of a matrix integral. However, this term can be confusing since the…
A linear map between two vector spaces has a very important characteristic: a determinant. In modern theory two generalizations of linear maps are intensively used: to linear complexes (the nilpotent chains of linear maps) and to non-linear…
We formulate the problem of finding the probability that the determinant of a matrix undergoes the least change upon perturbation of one of its elements, provided that most or all of the elements of the matrix are chosen at random and that…
Spiral structures are a common feature in scattered-light images of protoplanetary disks, and of great interest as possible tracers of the presence of planets. However, other mechanisms have been put foward to explain them, including…
We present a list of algebraic, combinatorial, and analytic mechanisms that give rise to determinantal point processes.
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…
In many oscillatory or excitable systems, dynamical patterns emerge which are stationary or periodic up in a moving frame of reference. Examples include traveling waves or spiral waves in chemical systems or cardiac tissue. We present a…
We introduce symmetric arithmetic circuits, i.e. arithmetic circuits with a natural symmetry restriction. In the context of circuits computing polynomials defined on a matrix of variables, such as the determinant or the permanent, the…
We consider the problem of counting the number of possible sets of rankings (called ranking patterns) generated by unfolding models of codimension one. We express the ranking patterns as slices of the braid arrangement and show that all…
In this paper, we define the OU matrix of a braid diagram and discuss how the OU matrix reflects the warping degree or the layeredness of the braid diagram, and show that the determinant of the OU matrix of a layered braid diagram is the…
The purpose of this article is to study determinants of matrices which are known as generalized Pascal triangles (see [1]). We present a factorization by expressing such a matrix as a product of a unipotent lower triangular matrix, a…
We present here necessary and sufficient conditions for the invertibility of circulant and symmetric matrices that depend on three parameters and moreover, we explicitly compute the inverse. The techniques we use are related with the…
In this (mostly expository) paper I want to share some observations prompted by a class of matrices whose determinants are Catalan numbers. Considering different methods of proof we obtain some generalizations and q-analogues and…
This paper establishes that every positive-definite matrix can be written as a positive linear combination of outer products of integer-valued vectors whose entries are bounded by the geometric mean of the condition number and the dimension…
We describe a class of matrices whose determinants are trivial to compute. A nice example of such a matrix is given by considering the symmetric matrix with entries {i+j choose i} (mod 2) in {0,1}, 0 <= i,j < n the binomial coefficients…
