Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system whose graph is connected, with no infinite edges. A self-map $\tau$ of $W$ such that $\tau_{\sigma\theta}\in \{\tau_{\theta},\ \sigma\tau_{\theta}\}$ for all $\theta\in W$ and all reflections $\sigma$…

We show that the permanent of an $n \times n$ matrix with iid Bernoulli entries $\pm 1$ is of magnitude $n^{({1/2}+o(1))n}$ with probability $1-o(1)$. In particular, it is almost surely non-zero.

We consider $N\times N$ random matrices of the form $H = W + V$ where $W$ is a real symmetric Wigner matrix and $V$ a random or deterministic, real, diagonal matrix whose entries are independent of $W$. We assume subexponential decay for…

About last 70s, Haynsworth [6] used a result of the Schur complement to refine a determinant inequality for positive definite matrices. Haynsworth's result was improved by Hartfiel [5]. We extend their result to a larger class of matrices,…

We establish precise right-tail small deviation estimates for the largest eigenvalue of real symmetric and complex Hermitian matrices whose entries are independent random variables with uniformly bounded moments. The proof relies on a Green…

A famous theorem by R. Brauer shows how to modify a single eigenvalue of a matrix by a rank-one update without changing the remaining eigenvalues. A generalization of this theorem (due to R. Rado) is used to change a pair of eigenvalues of…

Identifying the spectrum of the sum of two given Hermitian matrices with fixed eigenvalues is the famous Horn's problem.In this note, we investigate a variant of Horn's problem, i.e., we identify the probability density function (abbr. pdf)…

We consider PDE eigenvalue problems as they occur in two-dimensional photonic crystal modeling. If the permittivity of the material is frequency-dependent, then the eigenvalue problem becomes nonlinear. In the lossless case, linearization…

The isospectral reduction of matrix, which is closely related to its Schur complement, allows to reduce the size of a matrix while maintaining its eigenvalues up to a known set. Here we generalize this procedure by increasing the number of…

Let A and B be commutative locally convex algebras with unit. A is assumed to be a uniform topological algebra. Let h be an injective homomorphism from A to B. Under additional assumptions, we characterize the continuity of the homomorphism…

Let $A$ be a reciprocal matrix of order $n$ and $w$ be its Perron eigenvector. To infer the efficiency of $w$ for $A$, based on the principle of Pareto optimal decisions, we study the strong connectivity of a certain digraph associated with…

We show that a matrix is a Hermitian positive semidefinite matrix whose nonzero entries have modulus 1 if and only if it similar to a direct sum of all $1's$ matrices and a 0 matrix via a unitary monomial similarity. In particular, the only…

We consider the standard overlap $\mathcal{O}_{ij}: =\langle \mathbf{r}_j, \mathbf{r}_i\rangle\langle \mathbf{l}_j, \mathbf{l}_i\rangle$ of any bi-orthogonal family of left and right eigenvectors of a large random matrix $X$ with centred…

We introduce a countable collection of positivity classes for Hermitian symmetric functions on a complex manifold, and establish their basic properties. We study a related notion of stability. The first main result shows that, if the…

In 2011, Aaronson gave a striking proof, based on quantum linear optics, showing that the problem of computing the permanent of a matrix is #P-hard. Aaronson's proof led naturally to hardness of approximation results for the permanent, and…

For a simple graph $G$ with adjacency matrix $A(G)$, let $\pi(G,x):=\mathrm{per}(xI-A(G))$ be its permanental polynomial with roots $\mu_1,\ldots,\mu_n \in \mathbb{C}$, and define the permanental energy $E_{\mathrm{per}}(G):=\sum_{i=1}^n…

Call an $n$-by-$n$ invertible matrix $S$ a \emph{Perron similarity} if there is a real non-scalar diagonal matrix $D$ such that $S D S^{-1}$ is entrywise nonnegative. We give two characterizations of Perron similarities and study the…

We prove that all injective maps on positive complex matrices which preserve order and shrink spectrum are implemented by unitary or antiunitary conjugations. We show by counterexamples that all assumptions are indispensable. The result…
