The main results of this paper are twofold: the first one is a matrix theoretical result. We say that a matriz is superregular if all of its minors that are not trivially zero are nonzero. Given a a times b, a larger than or equal to b,…
A sparsity pattern in $\mathbb{R}^{n \times m}$, for $m\geq n$, is a vector subspace of matrices admitting a basis consisting of canonical basis vectors in $\mathbb{R}^{n \times m}$. We represent a sparsity pattern by a matrix with…
In this lecture note, we discuss a fundamental concept, referred to as the {\it characteristic rank}, which suggests a general framework for characterizing the basic properties of various low-dimensional models used in signal processing.…
In this paper, we review the problem of matrix completion and expose its intimate relations with algebraic geometry, combinatorics and graph theory. We present the first necessary and sufficient combinatorial conditions for matrices of…
A finite or infinite matrix A with rational entries is called partition regular if whenever the natural numbers are finitely coloured there is a monochromatic vector x with Ax=0. Many of the classical theorems of Ramsey Theory may naturally…
The matrix completion problem aims to reconstruct a low-rank matrix based on a revealed set of possibly noisy entries. Prior works consider completing the entire matrix with generalization error guarantees. However, the completion accuracy…
In alternating sign matrices the first and last nonzero entry in each row and column is specified to be +1. Such matrices always exist. We investigate a generalization by specifying independently the sign of the first and last nonzero entry…
The problem of finding the missing values of a matrix given a few of its entries, called matrix completion, has gathered a lot of attention in the recent years. Although the problem under the standard low rank assumption is NP-hard,…
A very simple interpretation of matrix completion problem is introduced based on statistical models. Combined with the well-known results from missing data analysis, such interpretation indicates that matrix completion is still a valid and…
A fooling-set matrix has nonzero diagonal, but at least one in every pair of diagonally opposite entries is 0. Dietzfelbinger et al. '96 proved that the rank of such a matrix is at least $\sqrt n$. It is known that the bound is tight (up to…
In structured system theory, a pattern matrix is a matrix with entries either fixed to zero or free to take arbitrary numbers. The (generic) rank of a pattern matrix is the rank of almost all its realizations. The resilience of various…
This paper establishes information-theoretic limits in estimating a finite field low-rank matrix given random linear measurements of it. These linear measurements are obtained by taking inner products of the low-rank matrix with random…
This paper considers the problem of matrix completion when some number of the columns are completely and arbitrarily corrupted, potentially by a malicious adversary. It is well-known that standard algorithms for matrix completion can return…
This paper is concerned with factor left prime factorization problems for multivariate polynomial matrices without full row rank. We propose a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of factor left prime factorizations of a…
We investigate the fundamental conditions on the sampling pattern, i.e., locations of the sampled entries, for finite completability of a low-rank tensor given some components of its Tucker rank. In order to find the deterministic necessary…
This paper considers the matrix completion problem. We show that it is not necessary to assume joint incoherence, which is a standard but unintuitive and restrictive condition that is imposed by previous studies. This leads to a sample…
This paper considers the problem of recovery of a low-rank matrix in the situation when most of its entries are not observed and a fraction of observed entries are corrupted. The observations are noisy realizations of the sum of a low rank…
Necessary and sufficient conditions are given on matrices $A$, $B$ and $S$, having entries in some field $\mathbb F$ and suitable dimensions, such that the linear span of the terms $A^iSB^j$ over $\mathbb F$ is equal to the whole matrix…
An interval matrix is a matrix whose entries are intervals in the set of real numbers. Let $p , q $ be nonzero natural numbers and let $\mu =( [m_{i,j}, M_{i,j}])_{i,j}$ be a $p \times q$ interval matrix; given a $p \times q$ matrix $A$…
The aim of this note (as well as of the course itself) is to give a largely self-contained proof of two of the main results in the field of low-rank matrix recovery. This field aims for identification of low-rank matrices from only limited…
