Let us fix a prime $p$ and a homogeneous system of $m$ linear equations $a_{j,1}x_1+\dots+a_{j,k}x_k=0$ for $j=1,\dots,m$ with coefficients $a_{j,i}\in\mathbb{F}_p$. Suppose that $k\geq 3m$, that $a_{j,1}+\dots+a_{j,k}=0$ for $j=1,\dots,m$…
A matrix-valued measure $\Theta$ reduces to measures of smaller size if there exists a constant invertible matrix $M$ such that $M\Theta M^*$ is block diagonal. Equivalently, the real vector space ${\mathscr A}$ of all matrices $T$ such…
For an $n$-vertex graph $G$, the walk matrix of $G$, denoted by $W(G)$, is the matrix $[e,A(G)e,\ldots,(A(G))^{n-1}e]$, where $A(G)$ is the adjacency matrix of $G$ and $e$ is the all-ones vector. For two integers $m$ and $\ell$ with $1\le…
A real matrix is said to be positive if its every entry is positive, and a real square matrix A is algebraically positive if there exists a real polynomial f such that f(A) is a positive matrix. A sign pattern matrix A is said to require a…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic $p$ and let $\mathbb{G}_a$ denote the additive group of $k$. Let $n \geq 1$ and let ${\rm Mat}(n, k[T])^E$ denote the set of all exponential matrices of ${\rm Mat}(n,…
We describe a type system for the linear-algebraic $\lambda$-calculus. The type system accounts for the linear-algebraic aspects of this extension of $\lambda$-calculus: it is able to statically describe the linear combinations of terms…
Riordan matrices are infinite lower triangular matrices determined by a pair of formal power series over the real or complex field. These matrices have been mainly studied as combinatorial objects with an emphasis placed on the algebraic or…
We consider the {\em Deligne-Simpson problem (DSP) (resp. the weak DSP): Give necessary and sufficient conditions upon the choice of the $p+1$ conjugacy classes $c_j\subset gl(n,{\bf C})$ or $C_j\subset GL(n,{\bf C})$ so that there exist…
Let $M=[m_{ij}]$ be an $n\times m$ real matrix, $\rho$ be a nonzero real number, and $A$ be a symmetric real matrix. We denote by $D(M)$ the $n\times n$ diagonal matrix $diag(\sum_{j=1}^{m}m_{1j},\ldots,\sum_{j=1}^{m}m_{nj})$ and denote by…
We consider a continuous analogue of Babai et al.'s and Cai et al.'s problem of solving multiplicative matrix equations. Given $k+1$ square matrices $A_{1}, \ldots, A_{k}, C$, all of the same dimension, whose entries are real algebraic, we…
We consider the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of an axisymmetric matrix$A$ with some special structures. We propose S-Oja-Brockett equation $\frac{dX}{dt}=AXB-XBX^TSAX,$ where $X(t) \in {\mathbb R}^{n \times m}$ with $m \leq n$, $S$ is a…
We construct real and complex matrices in terms of Kronecker products of a Witt basis of 2n null vectors in the geometric algebra over the real and complex numbers. In this basis, every matrix is represented by a unique sum of products of…
We consider generalizations of the Vieta formula (relating the coefficients of an algebraic equation to the roots) to the case of equations whose coefficients are order-$k$ matrices. Specifically, we prove that if $X_1,\dots ,X_n$ are…
For an $n\times n$ diagonally dominant matrix $T=(t_{i,j})_{n\times n}$ with positive elements satisfying certain bounding conditions, we propose to use a diagonal matrix $S=(s_{i,j})_{n\times n}$ to approximate the inverse of $T$, where…

Recently, Dvir, Golovnev, and Weinstein have shown that sufficiently strong lower bounds for linear data structures would imply new bounds for rigid matrices. However, their result utilizes an algorithm that requires an $NP$ oracle, and…
