By definition, reciprocal matrices are tridiagonal $n$-by-$n$ matrices $A$ with constant main diagonal and such that $a_{i,i+1}a_{i+1,i}=1$ for $i=1,\ldots,n-1$. For $n\leq 6$, we establish criteria under which the numerical range…

The higher rank numerical ranges of generic matrices are described in terms of the components of their Kippenhahn curves. Cases of tridiagonal (in particular, reciprocal) 2-periodic matrices are treated in more detail.

Reciprocal matrices are tridiagonal matrices $(a_{ij})_{i,j=1}^n$ with constant main diagonal and such that $a_{i,i+1}a_{i+1,i}=1$ for $i=1,\ldots,n-1$. For these matrices, criteria are established under which their Kippenhahn curves…

Conditions are established for rank three partial isometries to have circular components contained in their Kippenhahn curves. In particular, such matrices with circular numerical ranges are described. It is also established that the…

Tridiagonal canonical forms of square matrices under congruence or *congruence, pairs of symmetric or skew-symmetric matrices under congruence, and pairs of Hermitian matrices under *congruence are given over an algebraically closed field…

Kippenhahn discovered that the numerical range of a complex square matrix is the convex hull of a plane real algebraic curve. Here, we present an example of a convex set, which has a similar algebraic description as the numerical range,…

The elliptical range theorem asserts that the field of values (or numerical range) of a two-by-two matrix with complex entries is an elliptical disk, the foci of which are the eigenvalues of the given matrix. Many proofs of this result are…

We prove, in some cases in term of kippenhahn curve, that if 5-by-5 partial isometry whose numerical range is a circular disc then its center is must be the origin. This gives a partial affirmative answer of the Conjecture 5.1. of [H. l.…

Kippenhahn discovered a real algebraic plane curve whose convex hull is the numerical range of a matrix. The correctness of this theorem was called into question when Chien and Nakazato found an example where the spatial analogue fails.…

This paper is devoted to matrices with hyperbolical Krein space numerical range. This shape characterizes the 2-by-2 case and persists for certain classes of matrices, independently of their size. Ne\-cessary and sufficient conditions for…

A novel factorization for the sum of two single-pair matrices is established as product of lower-triangular, tridiagonal, and upper-triangular matrices, leading to semi-closed-form formulas for tridiagonal matrix inversion. Subsequent…

This work concerns results on conditions guaranteeing that certain banded $M$-matrices have banded inverses. As a first goal, a graph theoretic characterization for an off-diagonal entry of the inverse of an $M$-matrix to be positive, is…

The process of alternately row scaling and column scaling a positive $n \times n$ matrix $A$ converges to a doubly stochastic positive $n \times n$ matrix $S(A)$, called the \emph{Sinkhorn limit} of $A$. Exact formulae for the Sinkhorn…

Some properties of the multiway discrepanc of rectangular matrices of nonnegative entries are discussed. We are able to prove the continuity of this discrepancy, as well as some statements about the multiway discrepancy of some special…

We characterize the d x d matrices whose numerical ranges are invariant by rotations of angle 2$\pi$/d.

In this paper we have discussed different possible orthogonalities in matrices, namely orthogonal, quasi-orthogonal, semi-orthogonal and non-orthogonal matrices including completely positive matrices, while giving some of their…

Let $n\ge 2$ be an integer. Let $R_n$ denote the $n\times n$ tridiagonal matrix with $-1$'s on the sub-diagonal, $1$'s on the super-diagonal, $-1$ in the $(1,1)$ entry, $1$ in the $(n,n)$ entry and zeros elsewhere. We find the eigen-pairs…

We present here necessary and sufficient conditions for the invertibility of circulant and symmetric matrices that depend on three parameters and moreover, we explicitly compute the inverse. The techniques we use are related with the…

Let X be a (possibly nodal) K-trivial threefold moving in a fixed ambient space P. Suppose X contains a continuous family of curves, all of whose members satisfy certain unobstructedness conditions in P. A formula is given for computing the…
