Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field of order $q$, and $\mathcal{A}$ a non-empty proper subset of $\mathbb{F}_q$. Let $\mathbf{M}$ be a random $m \times n$ matrix of rank $r$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$ taken with uniform distribution. It was…

In this paper we discuss the question how to bound supremum of a stochastic process with the index set of a product type. There is a tempting idea to approach the question by the analysis of the process on each of the marginal index spaces…

Let ||.|| be a norm on the algebra M_n of all n-by-n matrices over the complex field C. An interesting problem in matrix theory is that "are there two norms ||.||_1 and ||.||_2 on C^n such that ||A||=max{||Ax||_2: ||x||_1=1} for all A in…

A product formula for the parity generating function of the number of 1's in invertible matrices over Z_2 is given. The computation is based on algebraic tools such as the Bruhat decomposition. The same technique is used to obtain a parity…

The book is devoted to investigation of arithmetic of the matrix rings over certain classes of commutative finitely generated principal ideals domains. We mainly concentrate on constructing of the matrix factorization theory. We reveal a…

Over the finite field with two elements, we present a method for obtaining explicit expressions for the number of rank i matrices of the form A above B, where A is persymmetric (A matrix [a(i,j)] is persymmetric if a(i,j) = a(r,s) for i+j =…

In a recent breakthrough paper, Chi et al. (STOC'22) introduce an $\tilde{O}(n^{\frac{3 + \omega}{2}})$ time algorithm to compute Monotone Min-Plus Product between two square matrices of dimensions $n \times n$ and entries bounded by…

Various lower bounds are established for the entropy of sums, products and their combinations. First, we derive a prime-field analogue of a version of the entropy power inequality established by Tao over torsion-free groups. Next, we prove…

Let $\mathcal{R}$ denote the set of integers $n$ that can be represented as the sum $n = x^2 + y^2$ with $(x,y) = 1$. Let $a$ and $b$ be integers with $a>0$, $a \nmid b$. We show that for sufficiently large positive integer $N$ there are…

By making use of arithmetic information inequalities, we give a strong quantitative bound for the discretised ring theorem. In particular, we show that if $A \subset [1,2]$ is a $(\delta,\sigma)$-set, with $|A| = \delta^{-\sigma},$ then…

In their seminal paper from 1983, Erd\H{o}s and Szemer\'edi showed that any $n$ distinct integers induce either $n^{1+\epsilon}$ distinct sums of pairs or that many distinct products, and conjectured a lower bound of $n^{2-o(1)}$. They…

Experiments suggest that typical finite sets of square matrices admit spectrum maximizing products (SMPs): that is, products that attain the joint spectral radius (JSR). Furthermore, those SMPs are often combinatorially "simple." In this…

In this paper we obtain a new sum-product estimate in prime fields. In particular, we show that if $A\subseteq \mathbb{F}_p$ satisfies $|A|\le p^{64/117}$ then $$ \max\{|A\pm A|, |AA|\} \gtrsim |A|^{39/32}. $$ Our argument builds on and…

Merging together a result of Nathanson from the early 70s and a recent result of Granville and Walker, we show that for any finite set $A$ of integers with $\min(A)=0$ and $\gcd(A)=1$ there exist two sets, the "head" and the "tail", such…

In this note it is established that, for any finite set $A$ of real numbers, there exist two elements $a,b \in A$ such that $$|(a+A)(b+A)| \gg \frac{|A|^2}{\log |A|}.$$ In particular, it follows that $|(A+A)(A+A)| \gg \frac{|A|^2}{\log…

In this paper we give an algorithm to determine all finite matrix groups over a number field. Our algorithm is based on the representation theory of finite groups.

In this paper, we study sums of shifted products $\sum\limits_{n \leq x} F(n) G(n-h)$ for any $|h| \leq x/2$ and arithmetic functions $F=f*1$ and $G=g*1$, with $f$ and $g$ small. We obtain asymptotic formula for different orders of…

We compute the $k$th power-sums (for all $k>0$) over an arbitrary finite unital ring $R$. This unifies and extends the work of Brawley, Carlitz, and Levine for matrix rings [Duke Math. J. 1974], with folklore results for finite fields and…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a finite subset of $\mathbb{N}$ including $0$ and $f_\mathcal{A}(n)$ be the number of ways to write $n=\sum_{i=0}^{\infty}\epsilon_i2^i$, where $\epsilon_i\in\mathcal{A}$. We consider asymptotics of the summatory…

We address two variants of the classical necklace counting problem from enumerative combinatorics. In both cases, we fix a finite group $\mathcal{G}$ and a positive integer $n$. In the first variant, we count the ``identity-product…
