Matrix polynomials with unitary/doubly stochastic coefficients form the subject matter of this manuscript. We prove that if $P(\lambda)$ is a quadratic matrix polynomial whose coefficients are either unitary matrices or doubly stochastic…
We establish effective versions of Oppenheim's conjecture for generic inhomogeneous quadratic forms. We prove such results for fixed quadratic forms and generic shifts. Our results complement our companion paper where we considered generic…
In this paper we give a matrix version of Handelman's Positivstellensatz [1], representing polynomial matrices which are positive definite on convex, compact polyhedra. Moreover, we propose also a procedure to find such a representation. As…
In 2010, Eun-Young Lee conjectured that if $A,B$ are two $n\times n$ complex matrices and $\left|A\right|, \left|B\right|$ are the absolute values of $A, B$, respectively, then \[ \|A+B\|_F\le…
A Bernstein type inequality is obtained for the Jacobi polynomials $P_n^{\alpha,\beta}(x)$, which is uniform for all degrees $n\ge0$, all real $\alpha,\beta\ge0$, and all values $x\in [-1,1]$. It provides uniform bounds on a complete set of…
A quantitative version of the Oppenheim conjecture for inhomogeneous quadratic forms is proved. We also give an application to eigenvalue spacing on flat 2-tori with Aharonov-Bohm flux.
We prove a quantitative version of Oppenheim's conjecture for generic ternary indefinite quadratic forms. Our results are inspired by and analogous to recent results for diagonal quadratic forms due to Bourgain.
We prove the Oppenheim conjecture for indefinite ternary diagonal forms of the type $x^{2}+y^{2} -\alpha z^{2}$ where $ \alpha $ is an irrational number. Our method is explicit in the sense that we are able to construct a solution to the…
Toeplitz matrices are ubiquitous and play important roles across many areas of mathematics. In this paper, we present some algebraic results concerning block Toeplitz matrices with block entries belonging to a commutative algebra $\AA$. The…
Given a positive definite matrix $A\in \mathbb{C}^{n\times n}$ and a Hermitian matrix $D\in \mathbb{C}^{m\times m}$, we characterize under which conditions there exists a strictly contractive matrix $K\in \mathbb{C}^{n\times m}$ such that…
Let $T=\begin{bmatrix} X &Y\\ 0 & Z\end{bmatrix}$ be an $n$-square matrix, where $X, Z$ are $r$-square and $(n-r)$-square, respectively. Among other determinantal inequalities, it is proved $\det(I_n+T^*T)\ge \det(I_r+X^*X)\cdot…
We establish a quantitative version of Oppenheim's conjecture for generic ternary indefinite quadratic forms using an analytic number theory approach. The statements come with power gains and in some cases are essentially optimal
We study the operator-valued positive definite functions on a group using positive block matrices. We give an alternative proof to Brehmer positivity for doubly commuting contractions. We classify all commuting unitary representations over…
It is well known that a set of non-defect matrices can be simultaneously diagonalized if and only if the matrices commute. In the case of non-commuting matrices, the best that can be achieved is simultaneous block diagonalization. Here we…
We prove a matrix inequality for matrix monotone functions, and apply it to prove a singular value inequality for Heinz means recently conjectured by X. Zhan.
In this short paper, we give a complete and affirmative answer to a conjecture on matrix trace inequalities for the sum of positive semidefinite matrices. We also apply the obtained inequality to derive a kind of generalized Golden-Thompson…
We prove effective versions of Oppenheim's conjecture for generic inhomogeneous forms in the S-arithmetic setting. We prove an effective result for fixed rational shifts and generic forms and we also prove a result where both the quadratic…

A version of the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality in operator theory is the following: for any two symmetric, positive definite matrices $A,B \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times n}$ and arbitrary $X \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times n}$ $$ \|AXB\| \leq \|A^2…
We give some statements that are equivalent to the existence of group inverses of Peirce corner matrices of a $2 \times 2$ block matrix and its generalized Schur complements. As applications, several new results for the Drazin inverses of…
