Let $R=\mathcal{R}(d(t),h(t))$ be a Riordan array, where $d(t)=\sum_{n\ge 0}d_nt^n$ and $h(t)=\sum_{n\ge 0}h_nt^n$. We show that if the matrix \begin{equation*} \left[\begin{array}{ccccc} d_0 & h_0 & 0 & 0 &\cdots\\ d_1 & h_1 & h_0 & 0 &\\…

Let A be a positive operator in an infinite sigma-finite von Neumann factor M and let B_j be a sequence of positive elements in M. We give sufficient conditions for decomposing A into a sum of elements C_j equivalent to B_j for all j ( C…

A symmetric positive semi-definite matrix A is called completely positive if there exists a matrix B with nonnegative entries such that A=BB^T. If B is such a matrix with a minimal number p of columns, then p is called the cp-rank of A. In…

The combined matrix is a very useful concept for many applications. Almost strictly sign regular (ASSR) matrices form an important structured class of matrices with two possible zero patterns, which are either type-I staircase or type-II…

We present a novel class of real symmetric matrices in arbitrary dimension $d$, linearly dependent on a parameter $x$. The matrix elements satisfy a set of nontrivial constraints that arise from asking for commutation of pairs of such…

The following theorem is proved: Suppose $M = (a_{i,j})$ be a $k \times k$ matrix with positive entries and $a_{i,j}a_{i+1,j+1} > 4\cos ^2 \frac{\pi}{k+1} a_{i,j+1}a_{i+1,j} \quad (1 \leq i \leq k-1, 1 \leq j \leq k-1).$ Then $\det M > 0 .$…

Generalizing the classical result of Bohr, we show that if an n-variable power series converges in an n-circular bounded complete domain D and its sum has modulus less than 1, then the sum of the maximum of the moduli of the terms is less…

We define ''convergence'' for noncommutative power series and construct two topologies on the algebra of power series, convergent with respect to a positive radius. We indicate all finite dimensional continuous representations of this…

By the Choi matrix criteria it is easy to determine if a specific linear matrix map is completely positive, but to establish whether a linear matrix map is positive is much less straightforward. In this paper we consider classes of linear…

A list $\Lambda =\{\lambda _{1},\lambda _{2},\ldots ,\lambda _{n}\}$ of complex numbers is said to be realizable if it is the spectrum of an entrywise nonnegative matrix. In this paper we intent to characterize those lists of complex…

Efficient resource allocation is one of the main driving forces of human civilizations. Of the many existing approaches to resource allocation, matrix completion is one that is frequently applied. In this paper, we investigate a special…

A recently-established necessary condition for polynomials that preserve the class of entrywise nonnegative matrices of a fixed order is shown to be necessary and sufficient for the class of nonnegative monomial matrices. Along the way, we…

For an $n\times n$ balanced symmetric matrix $T=(t_{i,j})$ with positive elements satisfying $t_{i,i}= \sum_{j\neq i} t_{i,j}$ and certain bounding conditions, we propose to use the matrix $S=(s_{i,j})$ to approximate its inverse, where…

Let $v_1$,..., $v_n$ be $n$ vectors in an inner product space. Can we find a natural number $d$ and positive (semidefinite) complex matrices $A_1$,..., $A_n$ of size $d \times d$ such that ${\rm Tr}(A_kA_l)= <v_k, v_l>$ for all $k,l=1,...,…

We present a necessary and sufficient condition for a 3 by 3 matrix to be unitarily equivalent to a symmetric matrix with complex entries, and an algorithm whereby an arbitrary 3 by 3 matrix can be tested. This test generalizes to a…

A real symmetric matrix $M$ is completely positive semidefinite if it admits a Gram representation by (Hermitian) positive semidefinite matrices of any size $d$. The smallest such $d$ is called the (complex) completely positive semidefinite…

We explore a class of centrosymmetric matrices whose entries are polynomials in two variables, referred to as DNA matrices. Our motivation stems from an unexpected connection between these matrices and invariant polynomials under the action…

Let $E \subseteq R^n$ be a closed set of Hausdorff dimension $\alpha$. For $m \geq n$, let $\{B_1,\ldots,B_k\}$ be $n \times (m-n)$ matrices. We prove that if the system of matrices $B_j$ is non-degenerate in a suitable sense, $\alpha$ is…

Using appropriate power series evaluations, we determine all moments of arbitrary positive powers of the arcsine. As consequences we evaluate several doubly infinite classes of power series involving central binomial coefficients and…
