In 1971, by induction on $n$ and using a two-term linear recurrence relation, Graham and Pollak got a beautiful formula $$\det(D_n)=-(n-1)(-2)^{n-2}$$ on the determinant of distance matrix $D_n$ of a tree $T_n$ on $n$ vertices. The…

We construct a new family of strong linearizations of rational matrices considering the polynomial part of them expressed in a basis that satisfies a three term recurrence relation. For this purpose, we combine the theory developed by…

Divisibility sequences are defined by the property that their elements divide each other whenever their indices do. The divisibility sequences that also satisfy a linear recurrence, like the Fibonacci numbers, are generated by polynomials…

We investigate the sequence $(P_{n}(z))_{n=0}^{\infty}$ of random polynomials generated by the three-term recurrence relation $P_{n+1}(z)=z P_{n}(z)-a_{n} P_{n-1}(z)$, $n\geq 1$, with initial conditions $P_{\ell}(z)=z^{\ell}$, $\ell=0, 1$,…

A number of theoretical and computational problems for matrix polynomials are solved by passing to linearizations. Therefore a perturbation theory results for linearizations need to be related back to matrix polynomials. In this paper we…
