We show that a formal power series in $2N$ non-commuting indeterminates is a positive non-commutative kernel if and only if the kernel on $N$-tuples of matrices of any size obtained from this series by matrix substitution is positive. We…

If a graph has a non-singular adjacency matrix, then one may use the inverse matrix to define a (labeled) graph that may be considered to be the inverse graph to the original one. It has been known that an adjacency matrix of a tree is…

We initiate the study of the binary and Boolean rank of $0,1$ matrices that have a small rank over the reals. The relationship between these three rank functions is an important open question, and here we prove that when the real rank $d$…

Four circulant codes form a special class of $2$-generator, index $4$, quasi-cyclic codes. Under some conditions on their generator matrices they can be shown to be self-dual. Artin primitive root conjecture shows the existence of an…

The M-matrix is an important concept in matrix theory, and has many applications. Recently, this concept has been extended to higher order tensors [18]. In this paper, we establish some important properties of M-tensors and nonsingular…

Let $d(N )$ (resp. $p(N )$) be the number of summands in the determinant (resp. permanent) of an $N\times N$ circulant matrix $A = (a_{ij} )$ given by $a_{ij} = X_{i+j}$ where $i + j$ should be considered $\mod N$ . This short note is…

A lonesum matrix is a $(0,1)$-matrix that is uniquely determined by its row and column sum vectors. In this paper, we introduce lonesum decomposable matrices and study their properties. We provide a necessary and sufficient condition for a…

Let C_1 and C_2 be skew circuits in a binary matroid having circumference c. For any positive integer k there is a constant a_k such that if min { |A| ; C_1 \subset A \subset E-A} > a_k, then |C_1| + |C_2| < 2c -k.

We consider a square random matrix made by i.i.d. rows with any distribution and prove that, for any given dimension, the probability for the least singular value to be in [0; $\epsilon$) is at least of order $\epsilon$. This allows us to…

We show that a matrix is a Hermitian positive semidefinite matrix whose nonzero entries have modulus 1 if and only if it similar to a direct sum of all $1's$ matrices and a 0 matrix via a unitary monomial similarity. In particular, the only…

Let $F$ be a $k\times \ell$ (0,1)-matrix. A matrix is simple if it is a (0,1)-matrix with no repeated columns. A (0,1)-matrix $A$ is said to have a $F$ as a configuration if there is a submatrix of $A$ which is a row and column permutation…

We consider a particular type of matrices which belong at the same time to the class of Hessenberg and Toeplitz matrices, and whose determinants are equal to the number of a type of compositions of natural numbers. We prove a formula in…

We prove an estimate on the smallest singular value of a multiplicatively and additively deformed random rectangular matrix. Suppose $n\le N \le M \le \Lambda N$ for some constant $\Lambda \ge 1$. Let $X$ be an $M\times n$ random matrix…

In order to find a suitable expression of an arbitrary square matrix over an arbitrary finite commutative ring, we prove that every such a matrix is always representable as a sum of a potent matrix and a nilpotent matrix of order at most…

This paper discusses prime numbers that are (resp. are not) congruent numbers. Particularly the only case not fully covered by earlier results, namely primes of the form $p=8k+1$, receives attention.

The main result of this paper is the decidability of the membership problem for $2\times 2$ nonsingular integer matrices. Namely, we will construct the first algorithm that for any nonsingular $2\times 2$ integer matrices $M_1,\dots,M_n$…

A graph is said to be $k$-{\em isoregular} if any two vertex subsets of cardinality at most $k$, that induce subgraphs of the same isomorphism type, have the same number of neighbors. It is shown that no $3$-isoregular bicirculant (and more…

In 2020, Cossu and Zanardo raised a conjecture on the idempotent factorization on singular matrices in the form $\begin{pmatrix} p&z\\ \bar{z}&\sfrac{\lVert z\rVert}{p} \end{pmatrix},$ where $p$ is a prime integer which is irreducible but…

An arithmetic matroid is weakly multiplicative if the multiplicity of at least one of its bases is equal to the product of the multiplicities of its elements. We show that if such an arithmetic matroid can be represented by an integer…

We study the distribution of the least singular value associated to an ensemble of sparse random matrices. Our motivating example is the ensemble of $N\times N$ matrices whose entries are chosen independently from a Bernoulli distribution…
