We revisit the complexity of building, given a two-dimensional string of size $n$, an indexing structure that allows locating all $k$ occurrences of a two-dimensional pattern of size $m$. While a structure of size $\mathcal{O}(n)$ with…

Strongly chordal graphs are a subclass of chordal graphs. The interest in this subclass stems from the fact that many problems which are NP-complete for chordal graphs are solvable in polynomial time for this subclass. However, we are not…

Oscillatory matrices were introduced in the seminal work of Gantmacher and Krein. An $n\times n$ matrix $A$ is called oscillatory if all its minors are nonnegative and there exists a positive integer $k$ such that all minors of $A^k$ are…

We study a class of square matrices with non-negative elements which have cyclically monotone rows in the sense that each row of a matrix from the class consists of a cyclically non-increasing sequence of numbers starting from a maximal…

We consider the problem of generating pseudo-random matrices based on the similarity of their spectra to Wigner's semicircular law. We introduce the notion of an r-independent pseudo-Wigner matrix ensemble and prove closeness of the spectra…

In this paper, we introduce the $k\times n$ (with $k\leq n$) truncated, supplemented Pascal matrix which has the property that any $k$ columns form a linearly independent set. This property is also present in Reed-Solomon codes; however,…

The process of alternately row scaling and column scaling a positive $n \times n$ matrix $A$ converges to a doubly stochastic positive $n \times n$ matrix $S(A)$, called the \emph{Sinkhorn limit} of $A$. Exact formulae for the Sinkhorn…

We construct a strongly regular graph with the parameters (65; 32; 15; 16). The idea is to search for an adjacency matrix that consists of circulant blocks. Equations with such matrices can be reduced to congruences with polynomials…

This paper is concerned with the low-rank approximation for large-scale nonsymmetric matrices. Inspired by the classical Nystrom method, which is a popular method to find the low-rank approximation for symmetric positive semidefinite…

This paper deals with the problem of constructing superregular matrices that lead to MDP convolutional codes. These matrices are a type of lower block triangular Toeplitz matrices with the property that all the square submatrices that can…

We consider a basic computational task of finding $s$ planted rank-1 $m \times n$ matrices in a linear subspace $\mathcal{U} \subseteq \mathbb{R}^{m \times n}$ where $\dim(\mathcal{U}) = R \ge s$. The work of Johnston-Lovitz-Vijayaraghavan…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of (strictly) semimonotone matrices of exact order $k$, where $0\leq k\leq n$, and explore their properties. We fully characterize the $3 \times 3$ (strictly) semimonotone matrices of exact order $2$,…

The \textit{sepr-sequence} of an $n\times n$ real matrix $A$ is $(s_1,\ldots,s_n)$, where $s_k$ is the subset of those signs of $+,-,0$ that appear in the values of the $k\times k$ principal minors of $A$. The $12\times 12$ matrix…

We prove the existence of clopen marker sets with some strong regularity property. For each $n\geq 1$ and any integer $d\geq 1$, we show that there are a positive integer $D$ and a clopen marker set $M$ in $F(2^{\mathbb{Z}^n})$ such that…

A trivially zero minor of a matrix is a minor having all its terms in the Leibniz formula equal to zero. A matrix is superregular if all of its minors that are not trivially zero are nonzero. In the area of Coding Theory, superregular…

In this paper, we present sufficient conditions to guarantee the invertibility of rational circulant matrices with any given size. These sufficient conditions consist of linear combinations of the entries in the first row with integer…

Discrete orthogonal matrices have several applications in information technology, such as in coding and cryptography. It is often challenging to generate discrete orthogonal matrices. A common approach widely in use is to discretize…

A sign pattern is a matrix whose entries are from the set $\{+,-, 0\}$. A square sign pattern $A$ is called sign $k$-potent if $k$ is the smallest positive integer for which $A^{k+1}=A$, and for $k=1$, $A$ is called sign idempotent. In…

Let $A$ be a real matrix. The term rank of $A$ is the smallest number $t$ of lines (that is, rows or columns) needed to cover all the nonzero entries of $A$. We prove a conjecture of Li et al. stating that, if the rank of $A$ exceeds $t-3$,…

A \emph{sign pattern (matrix)} is a matrix whose entries are from the set $\{+, -, 0\}$. The \emph{minimum rank} (respectively, \emph{rational minimum rank}) of a sign pattern matrix $\cal A$ is the minimum of the ranks of the real…
