Let ||.|| be a norm on the algebra M_n of all n-by-n matrices over the complex field C. An interesting problem in matrix theory is that "are there two norms ||.||_1 and ||.||_2 on C^n such that ||A||=max{||Ax||_2: ||x||_1=1} for all A in…
Given a set of inequalities determined by homogeneous forms, the following intertwined results are established: (1) the volume of the real semi-algebraic domain determined by these inequalities is explicitly determined; it is shown to be…
We announce two breakthrough results concerning important questions in the Theory of Computational Complexity. In this expository paper, a systematic and comprehensive geometric characterization of the Subset Sum Problem is presented. We…
Let $A, B$ be positive definite matrices, $p=1, 2$ and $r\ge 0$. It is shown that \begin{equation*} ||A+ B + r(A\sharp_t B+A\sharp_{1-t} B)||_p \le ||A+ B + r(A^{t}B^{1-t} + A^{1-t}B^t)||_p. \end{equation*} We also prove that for positive…
We study {\em sign-restricted matrices} (SRMs), a class of rectangular $(0, \pm 1)$-matrices generalizing the alternating sign matrices (ASMs). In an SRM each partial column sum, starting from row 1, equals 0 or 1, and each partial row sum,…
We study the irregularities of distribution on two-point homogeneous spaces. Our main result is the following: let $d$ be the real dimension of a two point homogeneous space $\mathcal{M}$, let $\left( \{ a_{j}\} _{j=1}^{N},\{ x_{j}\}…
For fixed $s\geq 1$ and $t_{1},t_{2}\in(0,1/2)$ we prove that the inequalities $G^{s}(t_{1}a+(1-t_{1})b,t_{1}b+(1-t_{1})a)A^{1-s}(a,b)>AG(a,b)$ and $G^{s}(t_{2}a+(1-t_{2})b,t_{2}b+(1-t_{2})a)A^{1-s}(a,b)>L(a,b)$ hold for all $a,b>0$ with…
An $n\times n$ complex matrix $A$ is called coninvolutory if $\bar AA=I_n$ and skew-coninvolutory if $\bar AA=-I_n$ (which implies that $n$ is even). We prove that each matrix of size $n\times n$ with $n>1$ is a sum of 5 coninvolutory…
In this note, we derive non trivial sharp bounds related to the weighted harmonic-geometric-arithmetic means inequalities, when two out of the three terms are known. As application, we give an explicit bound for the trace of the inverse of…
We show that for almost every map in a transversal one-parameter family of piecewise expanding unimodal maps the Birkhoff sum of suitable observables along the forward orbit of the turning point satisfies the law of iterated logarithm. This…
In this paper we study the factors of some alternating sums of products of binomial and q-binomial coefficients. We prove that for all positive integers n_1,...,n_m, n_{m+1}=n_1, and 0\leq j\leq m-1, {n_1+n_{m}\brack…
We prove a stability version of a general result that bounds the permanent of a matrix in terms of its operator norm. More specifically, suppose $A$ is an $n \times n$ matrix over $\mathbb{C}$ (resp. $\mathbb{R}$), and let $\mathcal{P}$…
We present an Oppenheim type determinantal inequality for positive definite block matrices. Recently, Lin [Linear Algebra Appl. 452 (2014) 1--6] proved a remarkable extension of Oppenheim type inequality for block matrices, which solved a…
Fourier series in orthogonal polynomials with respect to a measure $\nu$ on $[-1,1]$ are studied when $\nu$ is a linear combination of a generalized Jacobi weight and finitely many Dirac deltas in $[-1,1]$. We prove some weighted norm…
An $n$-by-$n$ ($n\ge 3$) weighted shift matrix $A$ is one of the form $$[{array}{cccc}0 & a_1 & & & 0 & \ddots & & & \ddots & a_{n-1} a_n & & & 0{array}],$$ where the $a_j$'s, called the weights of $A$, are complex numbers. Assume that all…
Given an integer $g$ and also some given integers $m$ (sufficiently large) and $c_1,\dots, c_m$, we show that the number of all non-negative integers $n\le M$ with the property that there exist non-negative integers $k_1,\dots, k_m$ such…
For a bivariate $P(x,y) \in \mathbb{R}[x,y]\setminus (\mathbb{R}[x] \cup \mathbb{R}[y])$, our first result shows that for all finite $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}$, $|P(A,A)|\geq \alpha|A|^{5/4}$ with $\alpha =\alpha(\mathrm{deg} P) \in…
In this paper we consider the following analog of Bezout inequality for mixed volumes: $$V(P_1,\dots,P_r,\Delta^{n-r})V_n(\Delta)^{r-1}\leq \prod_{i=1}^r V(P_i,\Delta^{n-1})\ \text{ for }2\leq r\leq n.$$ We show that the above inequality is…
We prove that the sum of entries of the suitably normalized groundstate vector of the O(1) loop model with periodic boundary conditions on a periodic strip of size 2n is equal to the total number of n x n alternating sign matrices. This is…
We prove a simple inequality for a sum of squares of norms of two vectors in an inner product space. Next, using this inequality we derive the so--called "reverse uncertainty relation" and analyze its properties.
