We characterize positive definiteness for some family of matrices. As an application we derive explicit value of the quadratic embedding constants of the path graphs.

We describe the structure of all continuous Jordan triple endomorphisms of the set $\mathbb{P}_2$ of all positive definite $2\times 2$ matrices thus completing a recent result of ours. We also mention an application concerning sorts of…

Inspired by the seminal work of Andr\'e-Louis Cholesky -- whose contributions remain crucial in broader sciences even after more than a century -- Cooper, Hanna and Whitlatch (2024) developed a theory of positive matrices over finite…

Suppose G is an almost simple group containing a subgroup isomorphic to the three-dimensional integer Heisenberg group. For example any finite index subgroup of SL(3,Z) is such a group. The main result of this paper is that every action of…

When K is an arbitrary field, we study the affine automorphisms of M_n(K) that stabilize GL_n(K). Using a theorem of Dieudonn\'e on maximal affine subspaces of singular matrices, this is easily reduced to the known case of linear preservers…

We prove that if the cardinality of a subset of the 2-dimensional vector space over a finite field with $q$ elements is $\ge \rho q^2$, with $\frac{1}{\sqrt{q}}<<\rho \leq 1$, then it contains an isometric copy of $\ge c\rho q^3$ triangles.

Totally positive matrices are related with the shape preserving representations of a space of functions. The normalized B-basis of the space has optimal shape preserving properties. B-splines and rational Bernstein bases are examples of…

We show that algebraic analogues of universal group covers, surjective group homomorphisms from a $\mathbb{Q}$-vector space to $F^{\times}$ with "standard kernel", are determined up to isomorphism of the algebraic structure by the…

Using Fourier analysis, Covert, Hart, Iosevich and Uriarte-Tuero (2008) showed that if the cardinality of a subset of the 2-dimensional vector space over a finite field with q elements is >= rq^2, with q^{-1/2} << r <= 1 then it contains an…

We prove some properties of positive polynomial mappings between Riesz spaces, using finite difference calculus. We establish the polynomial analogue of the classical result that positive, additive mappings are linear. And we prove a…

It is known that every complex square matrix with nonnegative determinant is the product of positive semi-definite matrices. There are characterizations of matrices that require two or five positive semi-definite matrices in the product.…
