We identify a link between regular matroids and torus representations all of whose isotropy groups have an odd number of components. Applying Seymour's 1980 classification of the former objects, we obtain a classification of the latter. In…

We study the problem of low-rank matrix completion for symmetric matrices. The minimum rank of a completion of a generic partially specified symmetric matrix depends only on the location of the specified entries, and not their values, if…

Multicriteria Decision Making problems are important both for individuals and groups. Pairwise comparisons have become popular in the theory and practice of preference modelling and quantification. We focus on decision problems where the…

In this paper we explore a family of congruences over $\N^\ast$ from which one builds a sequence of symmetric matrices related to the Mertens function. From the results of numerical experiments, we formulate a conjecture about the growth of…

We study the problem of exact completion for $m \times n$ sized matrix of rank $r$ with the adaptive sampling method. We introduce a relation of the exact completion problem with the sparsest vector of column and row spaces (which we call…

We elaborate on the deviation of the Jordan structures of two linear relations that are finite-dimensional perturbations of each other. We compare their number of Jordan chains of length at least $n$. In the operator case, it was recently…

Comparisons on $L^{n\over 2}$-norms of scalar curvatures between Riemannian metrics and standard metrics are obtained. The metrics are restricted to conformal classes or under certain curvature conditions.

This paper solves the two-sided version and provides a counterexample to the general version of the 2003 conjecture by Hadwin and Larson. Consider evaluations of linear matrix pencils $L=T_0+x_1T_1+\cdots+x_mT_m$ on matrix tuples as…

This paper suggests five measures of association between two random vectors X = (X_1, ..., X_p) and Y = (Y_1, ..., Y_q). They are copula based and therefore invariant with respect to the marginal distributions of the components X_i and Y_j.…

We investigate the joint convergence of independent random Toeplitz matrices with complex input entries that have a pair-correlation structure, along with deterministic Toeplitz matrices and the backward identity permutation matrix.…

The girth of a matrix is the least number of linearly dependent columns, in contrast to the rank which is the largest number of linearly independent columns. This paper considers the construction of {\it high-girth} matrices, whose…

In this study, the orthogonalization process for different inner products is applied to pairwise comparisons. Properties of consistent approximations of a given inconsistent pairwise comparisons matrix are examined. A method of a derivation…

We study random matrices whose entries are obtained by applying consistent rank correlations, such as Hoeffding's $D$, pairwise to a high-dimensional random vector with mutually independent components. Prior work has shown that, in the…

In the present paper, we propose a new rank correlation coefficient $r_n$, which is a sample analogue of the theoretical correlation coefficient $r$, which, in turn, was proposed in the recent work of Stepanov (2025b). We discuss the…

We present a systematic study on the linear convergence rates of the powers of (real or complex) matrices. We derive a characterization when the optimal convergence rate is attained. This characterization is given in terms of…

In this note, we prove that the problem of computing the linear discrepancy of a given matrix is $\Pi_2$-hard, even to approximate within $9/8 - \epsilon$ factor for any $\epsilon > 0$. This strengthens the NP-hardness result of Li and…
