We show that the existence of $\{\pm 1\}$-matrices having largest possible determinant is equivalent to the existence of certain tournament matrices. In particular, we prove a recent conjecture of Armario. We also show that large…
We show that the spectral radius of an $N\times N$ random symmetric matrix with i.i.d. bounded centered but non-symmetrically distributed entries is bounded from below by $ 2 \*\sigma - o(N^{-6/11+\epsilon}), $ where $\sigma^2 $ is the…
A g-circulant matrix of order n is defined as a matrix of order n where each row is a right cyclic shift in g-places to the preceding row. Using number theory, certain nonnegative g-circulant real matrices are constructed. In particular, it…
An $n\times n$ matrix $C$ is said to be {\it centrosymmetric} if it satisfies the relation $JCJ=C$, where $J$ is the $n\times n$ counteridentity matrix. Centrosymmetric matrices have a rich eigenstructure that has been studied extensively…
We completely describe all integer symmetric matrices that have all their eigenvalues in the interval [-2,2]. Along the way we classify all signed graphs, and then all charged signed graphs, having all their eigenvalues in this same…
Let $M_n$ be a class of symmetric sparse random matrices, with independent entries $M_{ij} = \delta_{ij} \xi_{ij}$ for $i \leq j$. $\delta_{ij}$ are i.i.d. Bernoulli random variables taking the value $1$ with probability $p \geq…
The eccentricity matrix $\mathcal E(G)$ of a connected graph $G$ is obtained from the distance matrix of $G$ by leaving unchanged the largest nonzero entries in each row and each column, and replacing the remaining ones with zeros. In this…
A correlation between the symmetry of NMR spectra, including higher-order spectra, and the properties of the spin system has been established. It is shown that for a spectrum to be symmetric about the mid-resonance frequency ({\nu}0), two…
In this paper we express the eigenvalues of a sort of real heptadiagonal symmetric matrices as the zeros of explicit rational functions establishing upper and lower bounds for each of them. From these prescribed eigenvalues we compute also…
Graph is an abstract representation commonly used to model networked systems and structure. In problems across various fields, including computer vision and pattern recognition, and neuroscience, graphs are often brought into comparison (a…
We consider the asymptotic behavior as $n\to\infty$ of the spectra of random matrices of the form \[\frac{1}{\sqrt{n-1}}\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}Z_{nk}\rho_n ((k,k+1)),\] where for each $n$ the random variables $Z_{nk}$ are i.i.d. standard Gaussian…
This paper examines the spectral characterizations of oriented graphs. Let $\Sigma$ be an $n$-vertex oriented graph with skew-adjacency matrix $S$. Previous research mainly focused on self-converse oriented graphs, proposing arithmetic…
Let $A$ be a nonnegative symmetric $ 5 \times 5 $ matrix with eigenvalues $ \lambda_1 \geq \lambda_2 \geq \lambda_3 \geq \lambda_4 \geq \lambda_5 $. We show that if $ \sum_{i=1}^{5} \lambda_{i} \geq \frac{1}{2} \lambda_1 $ then $ \lambda_3…
We prove, under a certain representation theoretic assumption, that the set of real symmetric matrices, whose eigenvalues satisfy a linear matrix inequality, is itself a spectrahedron. The main application is that derivative relaxations of…
It is shown that for a given infinite graph $G$ on countably many vertices, and a compact, infinite set of real numbers $\Lambda$ there is a real symmetric matrix $A$ whose graph is $G$ and its spectrum is $\Lambda$. Moreover, the set of…
We give an effective bound of the joint spectral radius $\rho(\Sigma)$ for a finite set $\Sigma$ of nonnegative matrices: For every $n$, \[ \sqrt[n]{\left(\frac{V}{UD}\right)^{D} \max_C \max_{i,j\in C} \max_{A_1,\dots,A_n\in\Sigma}(A_1\dots…
We establish for the matrix group $G=\mathrm{SL}_{n}\left(\mathbb{F}_{p}\right)$ that there exist absolute constants $c\in\left(0,1\right)$ and $C>0$ such that any symmetric generating set $A$, with $\left|A\right|\geq\left|G\right|^{1-c}$…
In this work we prove that every locally symmetric smooth submanifold gives rise to a naturally defined smooth submanifold of the space of symmetric matrices, called spectral manifold, consisting of all matrices whose ordered vector of…
Arrangement graphs were introduced for their connection to computational networks and have since generated considerable interest in the literature. In a pair of recent articles by Chen, Ghorbani and Wong, the eigenvalues for the adjacency…
Let F be an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from 2. We show that every nonsingular skew-symmetric n by n matrix X over F is orthogonally similar to a bidiagonal skew-symmetric matrix. In the singular case one has to…
