In this study, a pairwise comparison matrix is generalized to the case when coefficients create Lie group $G$, non necessarily abelian. A necessary and sufficient criterion for pairwise comparisons matrices to be consistent is provided.…
The square of a skew-symmetric matrix is a symmetric matrix whose eigenvalues have even multiplicities. When the matrices have rank two, they represent the Grassmannian of lines, and the squaring operation takes Pl\"ucker coordinates to…
We introduce the equation of n-dimensional totally geodesic submanifolds of a manifold E as a submanifold of the second order jet space of n-dimensional submanifolds of E. Next we study the geometry of n-Grassmannian equivalent connections,…
We develop a novel analogue of Euclidean PCA (principal component analysis) for data taking values on a Riemannian symmetric space, using totally geodesic submanifolds as approximating lower dimnsional submanifolds. We illustrate the…
We introduce cosurfaces with values in the group \(\PC_n(H)\) of \(H\)-valued reciprocal pairwise comparison matrices. The composition law is covariant on upper triangular coefficients and contravariant on lower triangular coefficients,…

This work is motivated by the relation between the KP and BKP integrable hierarchies, whose $\tau$-functions may be viewed as sections of dual determinantal and Pfaffian line bundles over infinite dimensional Grassmannians. In finite…

This study proposes revised axioms for defining inconsistency indicators in pairwise comparisons. It is based on the new findings that "PC submatrix cannot have a worse inconsistency indicator than the PC matrix containing it" and that…
We investigate an application of a mathematically robust minimization method -- the gradient method -- to the consistencization problem of a pairwise comparisons (PC) matrix. Our approach sheds new light on the notion of a priority vector…
We define a super analog of the classical Pl\"{u}cker embedding of the Grassmannian into a projective space. One of the difficulties of the problem is rooted in the fact that super exterior powers $\Lambda^{r|s}(V)$ are not a simple…
We explore the connection between two problems that have arisen independently in the signal processing and related fields: the estimation of the geometric mean of a set of symmetric positive definite (SPD) matrices and their approximate…
Finding correspondences between 3D shapes is a crucial problem in computer vision and graphics, which is for example relevant for tasks like shape interpolation, pose transfer, or texture transfer. An often neglected but essential property…
In this study, the orthogonalization process for different inner products is applied to pairwise comparisons. Properties of consistent approximations of a given inconsistent pairwise comparisons matrix are examined. A method of a derivation…
In the recent past, nested structures in Riemannian manifolds has been studied in the context of dimensionality reduction as an alternative to the popular principal geodesic analysis (PGA) technique, for example, the principal nested…
Despite the success of deep functional maps in non-rigid 3D shape matching, there exists no learning framework that models both self-symmetry and shape matching simultaneously. This is despite the fact that errors due to symmetry mismatch…
We present a new cryptomorphic definition of orthogonal matroids with coefficients using Grassmann--Pl\"ucker functions. The equivalence is motivated by Cayley's identities expressing principal and almost-principal minors of a…
This article describes certain ratios that attend pairs of complementary Gauss-Jordan pivotings transforming skew-symmetric matrices. Our interest in those ratios was motivated by a need to prove a crucial Claim stated in a recently…
