A fundamental problem arising in many applications in Web science and social network analysis is, given an arbitrary approximation factor $c>1$, to output a set $S$ of nodes that with high probability contains all nodes of PageRank at least…

This educational article highlights the geometric and algebraic complexities that distinguish tensors from matrices, to supplement coverage in advanced courses on linear algebra, matrix analysis, and tensor decompositions. Using the case of…

In this paper we explore a class of equivalence relations over $\N^\ast$ from which is constructed a sequence of symetric matrices related to the Mertens function. From numerical experimentations we suggest a conjecture, about the growth of…

A well-known conjecture in analytic number theory states that for every pair of sets $X,Y\subset\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}$, each of size at least $\log ^C p$ (for some constant $C$) we have that the number of pairs $(x,y)\in X\times Y$ such…

The paper studies algebraic strong shift equivalence of matrices over $n$-variable polynomial rings over a principal ideal domain $D$($n\leq 2$). It is proved that in the case $n=1$, every non-zero matrix over $D[x]$ has a full rank…

We prove an asymptotic formula for the number of fixed rank matrices with integer coefficients over a number field K/Q and bounded norm. As an application, we derive an approximate Rogers integral formula for discrete sets of module…

Using the $det^{S^2}$ map from [5], we introduce the notion of $S^2$-rank of a matrix of type $d\times \frac{s(s-1)}{2}$. As an application, we show that the conditional probability matrix associated to two random variables has the…

We revisit a formula that connects the minimal ranks of triangular parts of a matrix and its inverse and relate the result to structured rank matrices. We also address the generic minimal rank problem.

Examples exist of extended-real-valued closed functions on ${\bf R}^n$ whose subdifferentials (in the standard, limiting sense) have large graphs. By contrast, if such a function is semi-algebraic, then its subdifferential graph must have…

In this work, we study the matrix representation of derivations for Mock-Lie algebras with dimensions up to four. Using matrix methods, we examine their structure and properties, showing how these derivations help us better understand the…

Any associative bilinear multiplication on the set of n-by-n matrices over some field of characteristic not two, that makes the same vectors orthogonal and has the same trace as ordinary matrix multiplication, must be ordinary matrix…

Let $K$ be any field and $x = (x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n)$. We classify all matrices $M \in {\rm Mat}_{m,n}(K[x])$ whose entries are polynomials of degree at most 1, for which ${\rm rk} M \le 2$. As a special case, we describe all such matrices…

Let $n_1,\ldots,n_k $ be integers larger than or equal to 2. We characterize linear maps $\phi: M_{n_1\cdots n_k}\rightarrow M_{n_1\cdots n_k}$ such that $${\mathrm rank}\,(\phi(A_1\otimes \cdots \otimes…

In this paper we present a class of maps for which the multiplicativity of the maximal output p-norm holds when p is 2 and p is larger than or equal to 4. The class includes all positive trace-preserving maps from the matrix algebra on the…

The random matrix uniformly distributed over the set of all m-by-n matrices over a finite field plays an important role in many branches of information theory. In this paper a generalization of this random matrix, called k-good random…

Given a tract $F$ in the sense of Baker and Bowler and a matrix $A$ with entries in $F$, we define several notions of rank for $A$. In this way, we are able to unify and find conceptually satisfying proofs for various results about ranks of…

Let $X$ be a matrix with entries in a polynomial ring over an algebraically closed field $K$. We prove that, if the entries of $X$ outside some $(t \times t)$-submatrix are algebraically dependent over $K$, the arithmetical rank of the…

Let $\R$ be an alternative ring containing a nontrivial idempotent and $\D$ be a multiplicative Lie-type derivation from $\R$ into itself. Under certain assumptions on $\R$, we prove that $\D$ is almost additive. Let $p_n(x_1, x_2, \cdots,…
