Given a regular (connected) graph $\Gamma=(X,E)$ with adjacency matrix $A$, $d+1$ distinct eigenvalues, and diameter $D$, we give a characterization of when its distance matrix $A_D$ is a polynomial in $A$, in terms of the adjacency…

The goal of this paper is to generalize the theory of triangularizing matrices to linear transformations of an arbitrary vector space, without placing any restrictions on the dimension of the space or on the base field. We define a…

Given an expansive matrix $R\in M_d({\mathbb Z})$ and a finite set of digit $B$ taken from $ {\mathbb Z}^d/R({\mathbb Z}^d)$. It was shown previously that if we can find an $L$ such that $(R,B,L)$ forms a Hadamard triple, then the…

Any gentle algebra $A$ with one maximal path corresponds to a unique quasi-diagram $\alpha$. We introduce the regularity for $\alpha$, and show that $A$ has finite global dimension if and only if $\alpha$ is regular. We characterize regular…

This paper studies the unitary diagonalization of matrices over formal power series rings. Our main result shows that a normal matrix is unitarily diagonalizable if and only if its minimal polynomial completely splits over the ring and the…

We study the slices of the parameter space of cubic polynomials where we fix the multiplier of a fixed point to some value $\lambda$. The main object of interest here is the radius of convergence of the linearizing parametrization. The…

Let $\mathcal{A}=(A_{1},...,A_{n},...)$ be a finite or infinite sequence of $2\times2$ matrices with entries in an integral domain. We show that, except for a very special case, $\mathcal{A}$ is (simultaneously) triangularizable if and only…

Let $\Gamma$ denote an undirected, connected, regular graph with vertex set $X$, adjacency matrix $A$, and ${d+1}$ distinct eigenvalues. Let ${\mathcal A}={\mathcal A}(\Gamma)$ denote the subalgebra of Mat$_X({\mathbb C})$ generated by $A$.…

The task of analytically diagonalizing a tridiagonal matrix can be considerably simplified when a part of the matrix is uniform. Such quasi-uniform matrices occur in several physical contexts, both classical and quantum, where…

We study adjointable, bounded operators on the direct sum of two copies of the standard Hilbert C*-module over a unital C*-algebra A that are given by upper triangular 2 by 2 operator matrices. Using the definition of A-Fredholm and…

Motivated by a concept studied in [1], we consider a property of matrices over finite fields that generalizes triangular totally nonsingular matrices to block matrices. We show that (1) matrices with this property suffice to construct good…

The equivalence of multidimensional systems is closely related to the reduction of multivariate polynomial matrices, with the Smith normal form of matrices playing a key role. So far, the problem of reducing multivariate polynomial matrices…

Given any postsingularly finite exponential function $p_\lambda(z) = \lambda \exp(z)$ where $\lambda \in \C^*$, we construct a sequence of postcritically finite unicritical polynomials $p_{d,\lambda_d}(z) = \lambda_d(1+\frac{z}{d})^d$ that…

Consider the Laguerre polynomials and deform them by the introduction in the measure of an exponential singularity at zero. In [Chen Y., Its A., J. Approx. Theory 162 (2010), 270-297, arXiv:0808.3590] the authors proved that this…

Factorization of matrices of Laurent polynomials plays an important role in mathematics and engineering such as wavelet frame construction and filter bank design. Wavelet frames (a.k.a. framelets) are useful in applications such as signal…

There are two kinds of polynomial functions on matrix algebras over commutative rings: those induced by polynomials with coefficients in the algebra itself and those induced by polynomials with scalar coefficients. In the case of algebras…

We prove that, unless P=NP, there is no polynomial-time algorithm to approximate within some multiplicative constant the average size of an independent set in graphs of maximum degree 6. This is a special case of a more general result for…
