The equivalence of multidimensional systems is closely related to the reduction of multivariate polynomial matrices, with the Smith normal form of matrices playing a key role. So far, the problem of reducing multivariate polynomial matrices…
This paper investigates the equivalence reduction for several classes of multivariate polynomial matrices and their Smith forms, establishing some criteria for such reduction. In particular, we employ algebra isomorphisms as a key tool to…
This paper investigates the Smith normal form equivalence problem for multivariate polynomial matrices. Using methods from matrix theory and polynomial ideal theory, we prove that Frost and Storey's 1978 conjecture holds for a broad class…
This paper delves into the equivalence problem of Smith forms for multivariate polynomial matrices. Generally speaking, multivariate ($n \geq 2$) polynomial matrices and their Smith forms may not be equivalent. However, under certain…
A generalized definition of the determinant of matrices is given, which is compatible with the usual determinant for square matrices and keeps many important properties, such as being an alternating multilinear function, keeping…
The problem of expressing a specific polynomial as the determinant of a square matrix of affine-linear forms arises from algebraic geometry, optimisation, complexity theory, and scientific computing. Motivated by recent developments in this…
This paper is concerned with the factorization and equivalence problems of multivariate polynomial matrices. We present some new criteria for the existence of matrix factorizations for a class of multivariate polynomial matrices, and obtain…
We prove that for almost square tensor product grids and certain sets of bivariate polynomials the Vandermonde determinant can be factored into a product of univariate Vandermonde determinants. This result generalizes the conjecture [Lemma…
We present an algorithm for computing a Smith form with multipliers of a regular matrix polynomial over a field. This algorithm differs from previous ones in that it computes a local Smith form for each irreducible factor in the determinant…
We describe the variety of fixed points of a unipotent operator acting on the space of matrices. We compute the determinant and the rank of a generic (symmetric, or anti-symmetric) matrix in the fixed variety, yielding information about the…
We show that, for generic bihomogeneous polynomials, the determinant of the matrix of moving planes is irreducible.
The determinant of an anti-symmetric matrix $g$ is the square of its Pfaffian, which like the determinant is a polynomial in the entries of $g$. Studies of certain super conformal field theories (of class S) suggested a conjectural…
We find a canonical form for pure states of a general multipartite system, in which the constraints on the coordinates (with respect to a factorisable orthonormal basis) are simply that certain ones vanish and certain others are real. For…
In the space of square matrices, we characterize row-generated subspaces, on which the determinant is an irreducible polynomial. As a corollary, we characterize square systems of polynomial equations with indeterminate coefficients, whose…
We study sum-of-squares representations of symmetric univariate real matrix polynomials that are positive semidefinite along the real line. We give a new proof of the fact that every positive semidefinite univariate matrix polynomial of…
Consideration of a question of E. R. Berlekamp led Carlitz, Roselle, and Scoville to give a combinatorial interpretation of the entries of certain matrices of determinant~1 in terms of lattice paths. Here we generalize this result by…
This paper investigates the interplay between local and global equivalences on noncommutative polynomials, the elements of the free algebra. When the latter are viewed as functions in several matrix variables, a local equivalence of…
Let $K$ be a field, $R=K[x, y]$ the polynomial ring and $\mathcal{M}(K)$ the set of all pairs of square matrices of the same size over $K.$ Pairs $P_1=(A_1,B_1)$ and $P_2=(A_2,B_2)$ from $\mathcal{M}(K)$ are called similar if…
We discuss several conjectures about the real-rootedness of polynomials whose coefficients are determinants of coefficients of a real-rooted polynomial. We also consider some questions about matrices generalizing totally positive matrices,…
In this paper we establish some applications of the Scherer-Hol's theorem for polynomial matrices. Firstly, we give a representation for polynomial matrices positive definite on subsets of compact polyhedra. Then we establish a…
