In this paper, we define the phases of a complex sectorial matrix to be its canonical angles, which are uniquely determined from a sectorial decomposition of the matrix. Various properties of matrix phases are studied, including those of…
In this paper, we propose and solve a low phase-rank approximation problem, which serves as a counterpart to the well-known low-rank approximation problem and the Schmidt-Mirsky theorem. More specifically, a nonzero complex number can be…
In this paper, we propose a definition of phase for a class of stable nonlinear systems called semi-sectorial systems, from an input-output perspective. The definition involves the Hilbert transform as a critical instrument to complexify…
This paper introduces a brand-new phase definition called the segmental phase for multi-input multi-output linear time-invariant systems. The underpinning of the definition lies in the matrix segmental phase which, as its name implies, is…

Correlation matrices are the sub-class of positive definite real matrices with all entries on the diagonal equal to unity. Earlier work has exhibited a parametrisation of the corresponding Cholesky factorisation in terms of partial…
We describe a random matrix approach that can provide generic and readily soluble mean-field descriptions of the phase diagram for a variety of systems ranging from QCD to high-T_c materials. Instead of working from specific models, phase…
We solve a supersymmetric matrix model with a general potential. While matrix models usually describe surfaces, supersymmetry enforces a cancellation of bosonic and fermionic loops and only diagrams corresponding to so-called branched…
We extend the formalism of Matrix Product States (MPS) to describe one-dimensional gapped systems of fermions with both unitary and anti-unitary symmetries. Additionally, systems with orientation-reversing spatial symmetries are considered.…

We first obtain the most general and compact parametrization of the unitary transformation diagonalizing any 3 by 3 hermitian matrix H, as a function of its elements and eigenvalues. We then study a special class of fermion mass matrices,…
We study a class of parametrizations of convex cones of positive semidefinite matrices with prescribed zeros. Each such cone corresponds to a graph whose non-edges determine the prescribed zeros. Each parametrization in this class is a…
