Optimization of convex functions subject to eigenvalue constraints is intriguing because of peculiar analytical properties of eigenvalues, and is of practical interest because of wide range of applications in fields such as structural…
We describe properties of a Hermitian square matrix M in M_n(C) equivalent to that of having minimal quotient norm in the following sense: ||M|| <= ||M+D|| for all real diagonal matrices D in M_n(C) and || || the operator norm. These…
Let $\mathcal{H}$ be the Hermitian curve defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$. In this paper we complete the geometrical characterization of the supports of the minimum-weight codewords of the algebraic-geometry codes over…
We study functions defined on the vertices of the Hamming graphs $H(n,q)$. The adjacency matrix of $H(n,q)$ has $n+1$ distinct eigenvalues $n(q-1)-q\cdot i$ with corresponding eigenspaces $U_{i}(n,q)$ for $0\leq i\leq n$. In this work, we…
We study the minimality of $n\times n$ Hermitian matrices $A$ respect to a $C^*$-subalgebra $\mathcal{B}$ of $M_n(\mathbb{C})$ in the spectral norm, that is \[\|A\|\leq \|A+B\|,\ \text{ for every } B\in \mathcal{B}.\] We generalize the…
For a given class of structured matrices $\mathbb S$, we find necessary and sufficient conditions on vectors $x,w\in \C^{n+m}$ and $y,z \in \C^{n}$ for which there exists $\Delta=[\Delta_1~\Delta_2]$ with $\Delta_1 \in \mathbb S$ and…
Subspace iterations are used to minimise a generalised Ritz functional of a large, sparse Hermitean matrix. In this way, the lowest $m$ eigenvalues are determined. Tests with $1 \leq m \leq 32$ demonstrate that the computational cost (no.…
Nondegenerate covariance, correlation and spectral density matrices are necessarily symmetric or Hermitian and positive definite. The main contribution of this paper is the development of statistical data depths for collections of Hermitian…
The halfspace depth is a well studied tool of nonparametric statistics in multivariate spaces, naturally inducing a multivariate generalisation of quantiles. The halfspace depth of a point with respect to a measure is defined as the infimum…
Given a diagonalizable $N\times N$ matrix $H$, whose non-degenerate spectrum consists of $p$ pairs of complex conjugate eigenvalues and additional $N-2p$ real eigenvalues, we determine all metrics $M$, of all possible signatures, with…
We consider the minimization or maximization of the $J$th largest eigenvalue of an analytic and Hermitian matrix-valued function, and build on Mengi et al. (2014, SIAM J. Matrix Anal. Appl., 35, 699-724). This work addresses the setting…
In this work, our aim is to obtain conditions to assure polynomial approximation in Hilbert spaces $L^{2}(\mu)$, with $\mu$ a compactly supported measure in the complex plane, in terms of properties of the associated moment matrix to the…
We show that the class of Lipschitz-free spaces over closed subsets of any complete metric space $M$ is closed under arbitrary intersections, improving upon the previously known finite-diameter case. This allows us to formulate a general…
Given a nonlinear matrix-valued function $F(\lambda)$ and approximate eigenpairs $(\lambda_i, v_i)$, we discuss how to determine the smallest perturbation $\delta F$ such that $[F + \delta F](\lambda_i) v_i = 0$; we call the distance…
In this paper we discuss the geometry of homogeneous spaces witch are almost Hermitian submanifolds of flag manifolds. We prove that such spaces are necessarily minimal submanifolds and in the case where these submanifolds are also flag…
We consider the uniform approximation of the smallest eigenvalue of a large parameter-dependent Hermitian matrix by that of a smaller counterpart obtained through projections. The projection subspaces are constructed iteratively by means of…
We first consider the problem of approximating a few eigenvalues of a rational matrix-valued function closest to a prescribed target. It is assumed that the proper rational part of the rational matrix-valued function is expressed in the…
Conjugation covariants of matrices are applied to study the real algebraic variety consisting of complex Hermitian matrices with a bounded number of distinct eigenvalues. A minimal generating system of the vanishing ideal of degenerate…
In this paper, we formally investigate two mathematical aspects of Hermite splines which translate to features that are relevant to their practical applications. We first demonstrate that Hermite splines are maximally localized in the sense…
A flag is a sequence of nested subspaces. Flags are ubiquitous in numerical analysis, arising in finite elements, multigrid, spectral, and pseudospectral methods for numerical PDE; they arise in the form of Krylov subspaces in matrix…
