Matrix inversion problems are often encountered in experimental physics, and in particular in high-energy particle physics, under the name of unfolding. The true spectrum of a physical quantity is deformed by the presence of a detector,…
Matrices are built and designed by applying procedures from lower order matrices. Matrix tensor products, direct sums or multiplication of matrices are such procedures and a matrix built from these is said to be a {\em separable} matrix. A…
Assume we are given a sum of linear measurements of $s$ different rank-$r$ matrices of the form $y = \sum_{k=1}^{s} \mathcal{A}_k ({X}_k)$. When and under which conditions is it possible to extract (demix) the individual matrices ${X}_k$…

Linear algebra's main concerns are sets of vectors, linear functions, subspaces, linear systems, matrices and concepts about those, such as whether the solution of linear system exists or is unique; a set of vectors is linearly independent…
