Given a bilinear form on $\mathbb C^n$, represented by a matrix $A\in\mathbb C^{n\times n}$, the problem of finding the largest dimension of a subspace of $\mathbb C^n$ such that the restriction of $A$ to this subspace is a non-degenerate…

We continue the study of real polynomials acting entrywise on matrices of fixed dimension to preserve positive semidefiniteness, together with the related analysis of order properties of Schur polynomials. Previous work has shown that,…

We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of an LU factorization $A=LU$ for an arbitrary square matrix $A$, including singular and rank-deficient cases, without the use of row or column permutations. We prove that…

In this paper, we will consider matrices with entries in the space of operators $\mathcal{B}(H)$, where $H$ is a separable Hilbert space, and consider the class of (left or right) Schur multipliers that can be approached in the multiplier…

Let $\| A \|_{\max} := \max_{i,j} |A_{i,j}|$ denote the maximum magnitude of entries of a given matrix $A$. In this paper we show that $$\max \left\{ \|U_r \|_{\max},\|V_r\|_{\max} \right\} \le \frac{(Cr)^{6r}}{\sqrt{N}},$$ where $U_r$ and…

It is well-known that the Burer-Monteiro (B-M) factorization approach can efficiently solve low-rank matrix optimization problems under the RIP condition. It is natural to ask whether B-M factorization-based methods can succeed on any…

Low rank approximation is a commonly occurring problem in many computer vision and machine learning applications. There are two common ways of optimizing the resulting models. Either the set of matrices with a given rank can be explicitly…

We propose two interrelated advances in the theory of adjointable operators on Hilbert C*-modules. First, we give a set of equivalent, verifiable conditions characterizing positivity of general $n\times n$ block operator matrices acting on…

Schur's test states that if $K:X\times Y\to\mathbb{C}$ satisfies $\int_Y |K(x,y)|d\nu(y)\leq C$ and $\int_X |K(x,y)|d\mu(x)\leq C$, then the associated integral operator acts boundedly on $L^p$ for all $p\in [1,\infty]$. We derive a variant…

We show that every subsymmetric Schauder basis $(e_j)$ of a Banach space $X$ has the factorization property, i.e. $I_X$ factors through every bounded operator $T\colon X\to X$ with a $\delta$-large diagonal (that is $\inf_j |\langle Te_j,…

We give a Stinespring representation of the Schur block product, say (*), on pairs of square matrices with entries in a C*-algebra as a completely bounded bilinear operator of the form: A:=(a_{ij}), B:= (b_{ij}): A (*) B := (a_{ij}b_{ij}) =…

Let $G$ be an infinite locally compact abelian group. If $X$ is Banach space, we show that if every bounded Fourier multiplier $T$ on $L^2(G)$ has the property that $T\ot Id_X$ is bounded on $L^2(G,X)$ then the Banach space $X$ is…

In binary polynomial optimization, the goal is to find a binary point maximizing a given polynomial function. In this paper, we propose a novel way of formulating this general optimization problem, which we call factorized binary polynomial…

A problem by Feichtinger, Heil, and Larson asks whether every infinite matrix $A$ with $\sum_{k,l}|A_{kl}| < \infty$ (an equivalent substitute for the Feichtinger algebra) that is positive-semidefinite admits a symmetric rank-one…

The importance of Schur complement based preconditioners are well-established for classical saddle point problems in $\mathbb{R}^N \times \mathbb{R}^M$. In this paper we extend these results to multiple saddle point problems in Hilbert…

For a given C*-algebra $\mathcal{A}$, we establish the existence of maximal and minimal operator $\mathcal{A}$-system structures on an AOU $\mathcal{A}$-space. In the case $\mathcal{A}$ is a W*-algebra, we provide an abstract…

We consider semidefinite programs (SDPs) with equality constraints. The variable to be optimized is a positive semidefinite matrix $X$ of size $n$. Following the Burer--Monteiro approach, we optimize a factor $Y$ of size $n \times p$…

We study a factorization of bounded linear maps from an operator space $A$ to its dual space $A^*$. It is shown that $T : A \longrightarrow A^*$ factors through a pair of a column Hilbert spaces $\mathcal{H}_c$ and its dual space if and…

Let X be a homogeneous tree of degree q+1 (for q between 2 and infinity) and let f be a complex function on X times X for which f(x,y) only depend on the distance between x and y in X. Our main result gives a necessary and sufficient…

In a recent article, Ch\'avez, Garcia and Hurley introduced a new family of norms $\|\cdot\|_{\mathbf{X},d}$ on the space of $n \times n$ complex matrices which are induced by random vectors $\mathbf{X}$ having finite $d$-moments. Therein,…
