We give an example of a BH(5; 5) matrix M satisfying that the eigenvalues of the unitary matrix $\frac{1}{\sqrt5}M$ are all primitive 10-th roots of unity and such that $\frac{1}{5}M^3$ is not a BH(5; 5) matrix. This example gives a…

The dimensions of sets of matrices of various types, with specified eigenvalue multiplicities, are determined. The dimensions of the sets of matrices with given Jordan form and with given singular value multiplicities are also found. Each…

The complete eigenstructure, or structural data, of a rational matrix $R(s)$ is comprised by its invariant rational functions, both finite and at infinity, which in turn determine its finite and infinite pole and zero structures,…

We study the class of Hankel matrices for which the $k\times k$-block-matrices are positive semi-definite. We prove that a $k\times k$-block-matrix has non zero determinant if and only if all $k\times k$-block matrices have non zero…

Entrywise powers of matrices have been well-studied in the literature, and have recently received renewed attention in the regularization of high-dimensional correlation matrices. In this paper, we study powers of positive semidefinite…

A foundational principle in the study of modules over standard graded polynomial rings is that geometric positivity conditions imply vanishing of Betti numbers. The main goal of this paper is to determine the extent to which this principle…

Let $X$ be an open subset of $\Bbb C^N$, and let $A$ be an $n\times n$ matrix of holomorphic functions on $X$. We call a point $\xi\in X$ $\mathbf{Jordan}$ $\mathbf{stable}$ for $A$ if $\xi$ is not a splitting point of the eigenvalues of…

Let $\cal{A}$ be the algebra of quaternions $\mathbb{H}$ or octonions $\mathbb{O}$. In this manuscript a new proof is given, based on ideas of Cauchy and D' Alembert, of the fact that an ordinary polynomial $f(t) \in {\cal{A}}\, [t]$ has a…

Let $C$ be a symmetrizable generalized Cartan matrix with symmetrizer $D$ and orientation $\Omega$. In previous work we associated an algebra $H$ to this data, such that the locally free $H$-modules behave in many aspects like…

Chebotarev's theorem on roots of unity states that all minors of a Fourier matrix are non-zero if and only if the order of the matrix is prime. We establish cases in which all principal minors of Fourier matrices of square-free order are…

In this article, we develop a positive characteristic analogue of the Bernstein--Sato theory for holonomic D-modules in the complex setting. We work with D-modules on a Noetherian regular $F$-finite $\mathbb{F}_p$-scheme $X$, and define…

The matrix $S = [1+x_i y_j]_{i,j=1}^{n}, 0<x_1<\cdots<x_n,\, 0<y_1<\cdots<y_n$, has gained importance lately due to its role in powers preserving total nonnegativity. We give an explicit decomposition of $S$ in terms of elementary…

A nonzero nonnegative definite hermitian m by m matrix A has increasing principal minors if the value of each principle minor of A is not less than the value each of its subminors. For $m>1$ we show $A$ has increasing principal minors if…

The notion of root polynomials of a polynomial matrix $P(\lambda)$ was thoroughly studied in [F. Dopico and V. Noferini, Root polynomials and their role in the theory of matrix polynomials, Linear Algebra Appl. 584:37--78, 2020]. In this…
