The scalar curvature equation for rotation invariant K\"ahler metrics on $\mathbb{C}^n \backslash \{0\}$ is reduced to a system of ODEs of order 2. By solving the ODEs, we obtain complete lists of rotation invariant zero or positive csck on…
Given a real, symmetric matrix S, we define the slice through S as being the connected component containing S of two orbits under conjugation: the first by the orthogonal group, and the second by the upper triangular group. We describe some…
In this article one-sided (b, c)-inverses of arbitrary matrices as well as one-sided inverses along a (not necessarily square) matrix, will be studied. In adddition, the (b, c)-inverse and the inverse along an element will be also…
Given a definite nonnegative matrix $A \in M_n (C)$, we study the minimal index of A: $I(A) = \max \{\lambda \ge 0 : A\circ B \ge \lambda B$ for all $0\le B\}$, where $A\circ B$ denotes the Hadamard product $(A\circ B)_{ij} = A_{ij}…
The first author introduced the circuit-cocircuit reversal system of an oriented matroid, and showed that when the underlying matroid is regular, the cardinalities of such system and its variations are equal to special evaluations of the…
In this paper, the investigation on the algebraic structure of the ring $\frac{\mathbb{F}_q[v]}{\langle\,v^q-v\,\rangle}$ and the description of its automorphism group, enable to study the algebraic structure of codes and their dual over…
We present a spectroscopic analysis of four massive binary systems that are known or are good candidates to display the Struve-Sahade effect (defined as the apparent strengthening of the secondary spectrum of the binary when the star is…
Lattice path matroids and bicircular matroids are two well-known classes of transversal matroids. In the seminal work of Bonin and de Mier about structural properties of lattice path matroids, the authors claimed that lattice path matroids…
The magnonic crystal, which has a spatial modulation wave vector $q$, couples the spin wave with wave vector $k$ to the one with wave vector $k-q$. For a conventional magnonic crystal with direct current (dc) supply, the spin waves around…
Let k be a positive integer. A sequence s over an n-element alphabet A is called a k-radius sequence if every two symbols from A occur in s at distance of at most k. Let f_k(n) denote the length of a shortest k-radius sequence over A. We…
Let $n\ge 2$ be an integer. Let $R_n$ denote the $n\times n$ tridiagonal matrix with -1's on the sub-diagonal, 1's on the super-diagonal, -1 in the (1,1) entry, 1 in the (n,n) entry and zeros elsewhere. This paper shows that $R_n$ is…
A biased graph is a graph with a class of selected circles ("cycles", "circuits"), called balanced, such that no theta subgraph contains exactly two balanced circles. A biased graph $\Omega$ has two natural matroids, the frame matroid…
The shift distance $\mathsf{sh}(S_1,S_2)$ between two strings $S_1$ and $S_2$ of the same length is defined as the minimum Hamming distance between $S_1$ and any rotation (cyclic shift) of $S_2$. We study the problem of sketching the shift…
It is shown that the behavior of an $m$-port circuit of maximal monotone elements can be expressed as a zero of the sum of a maximal monotone operator containing the circuit elements, and a structured skew-symmetric linear operator…
It is well known that the full matrix ring over a skew-field is a simple ring. We generalize this theorem to the case of semirings. We characterize the case when the matrix semiring $\mathbf{M}_n(S)$, of all $n\times n$ matrices over a…
Given $d, N \in \mathbb{N}$, we define $\mathfrak{C}_d(N)$ to be the number of pairs of $d\times d$ matrices $A,B$ with entries in $[-N,N] \cap \mathbb{Z}$ such that $AB = BA$. We prove that $$ N^{10} \ll \mathfrak{C}_3(N) \ll N^{10},$$…

In this paper we are interested in symmetries of alternating knots, more precisely in those related to achirality. We call the following statement Tait's Conjecture on alternating -achiral knots: Let K be an alternating -achiral knot. Then…
On the string of finite length, a (genomic) transposition is defined as the operation of exchanging two consecutive substrings. The minimum number of transpositions needed to transform one into the other is the transposition distance, that…
