Let $A$ be a square matrix with a given structure (e.g. real matrix, sparsity pattern, Toeplitz structure, etc.) and assume that it is unstable, i.e. at least one of its eigenvalues lies in the complex right half-plane. The problem of…

This paper aims at solving the Hermitian SDC problem, i.e., that of \textit{simultaneously diagonalizing via $*$-congruence} a collection of finitely many (not need pairwise commute) Hermitian matrices. Theoretically, we provide some…
We study symplectic linear algebra over the ring $\Rt$ of Colombeau generalized numbers. Due to the algebraic properties of $\Rt$ it is possible to preserve a number of central results of classical symplectic linear algebra. In particular,…
The product of a Hermitian matrix and a positive semidefinite matrix has only real eigenvalues. We present bounds for sums of eigenvalues of such a product.
The eigenvalue problem plays a central role in linear algebra and its applications in control and optimization methods. In particular, many matrix decompositions rely upon computation of eigenvalue-eigenvector pairs, such as diagonal or…
We present a simple, accurate method for solving consistent, rank-deficient linear systems, with or without addi- tional rank-completing constraints. Such problems arise in a variety of applications, such as the computation of the…
As is known, the irreducible projective representations (Reps) of anti-unitary groups contain three different situations, namely, the real, the complex and quaternion types with torsion number 1,2,4 respectively. This subtlety increases the…
The structured $\varepsilon$-stability radius is introduced as a quantity to assess the robustness of transient bounds of solutions to linear differential equations under structured perturbations of the matrix. This applies to general…
Positive semidefinite Hermitian matrices that are not fully specified can be completed provided their underlying graph is chordal. If the matrix is positive definite the completion can be uniquely characterized as the matrix that maximizes…
For a diagonalizable linear operator $H:\mathscr{H}\to\mathscr{H}$ acting in a separable Hilbert space $\mathscr{H}$, i.e., an operator with a purely point spectrum, eigenvalues with finite algebraic multiplicities, and a set of…
The analysis of diagonalizable matrices in terms of their so-called isospectral reduction represents a versatile approach to the underlying eigenvalue problem. Starting from a symmetry of the isospectral reduction, we show in the present…
We study the convex relaxation of a polynomial optimization problem, maximizing a product of linear forms over the complex sphere. We show that this convex program is also a relaxation of the permanent of Hermitian positive semidefinite…
In this paper, we establish a connection between the formalism of $\mathcal{R}$-transforms for non-Hermitian random matrices and the framework of spherical integrals, using the replica method. This connection was previously proved in the…
We study the differential and metric structures of the set of real square roots of a non-singular real matrix, under the assumption that the matrix and its square roots are semi-simple, or symmetric, or orthogonal.
This paper introduces a framework to study discrete optimization problems which are parametric in the following sense: their constraint matrices correspond to matrices over the ring $\mathbb{Z}[x]$ of polynomials in one variable. We…
The complex eigenvalues of some non-Hermitian Hamiltonians, e.g. parity-time symmetric Hamiltonians, come in complex-conjugate pairs. We show that for non-Hermitian scattering Hamiltonians (of a structureless particle in one dimension)…
Telek (2022) asked whether a rational arrival process (RAP), specified by matrices ${G}_0$ and ${G}_1$ and an initial row vector ${\nu}$, with strictly positive joint densities and a unique dominant real eigenvalue of ${G}_0$ must admit an…
