For a prime $p$ and a matrix $A \in \mathbb{Z}^{n \times n}$, write $A$ as $A = p (A \,\mathrm{quo}\, p) + (A \,\mathrm{rem}\, p)$ where the remainder and quotient operations are applied element-wise. Write the $p$-adic expansion of $A$ as…
Let $\mathscr{L}$ denote the $\mathbf{Q}$-vector space of logarithms of algebraic numbers. In this expository work, we provide an introduction to the study of ranks of matrices with coefficients in $\mathscr{L}$. We begin by considering a…
Let $\|A\|_{p,q}$ be the norm induced on the matrix $A$ with $n$ rows and $m$ columns by the H\"older $\ell_p$ and $\ell_q$ norms on $R^n$ and $R^m$ (or $C^n$ and $C^m$), respectively. It is easy to find an upper bound for the ratio…
Each graph and choice of a commutative ring gives rise to an associated graphical group. In this article, we introduce and investigate graph polynomials that enumerate conjugacy classes of graphical groups over finite fields according to…
We use generating functions over group rings to count polynomials over finite fields with the first few coefficients prescribed and a factorization pattern prescribed. In particular, we obtain different exact formulas for the number of…
We verify a conjecture on the structure of higher-rank numerical ranges for a wide class of unitary and normal matrices. Using analytic and geometric techniques, we show precisely how the higher-rank numerical ranges for a generic unitary…
We consider the algebra of invariants of $d$-tuples of $n\times n$ matrices under the action of the orthogonal group by simultaneous conjugation over an infinite field of characteristic $p$ different from two. It is well-known that this…
We present a novel algebraic combinatorial view on low-rank matrix completion based on studying relations between a few entries with tools from algebraic geometry and matroid theory. The intrinsic locality of the approach allows for the…
We study largest singular values of large random matrices, each with mean of a fixed rank $K$. Our main result is a limit theorem as the number of rows and columns approach infinity, while their ratio approaches a positive constant. It…
We prove sharp limit theorems on random walks on graphs with values in finite groups. We then apply these results (together with some elementary algebraic geometry, number theory, and representation theory) to finite quotients of lattices…
It is well known that the ring of polynomial invariants of a reductive group is finitely generated. However, it is difficult to give strong upper bounds on the degrees of the generators, especially over fields of positive characteristic. In…
Let $M$ be a random matrix chosen according to Haar measure from the unitary group $\mathrm{U}(n,\mathbb{C})$. Diaconis and Shahshahani proved that the traces of $M,M^2,\ldots,M^k$ converge in distribution to independent normal variables as…
We look at Bohemians, specifically those with population $\{-1, 0, {+1}\}$ and sometimes $\{0,1,i,-1,-i\}$. More, we specialize the matrices to be upper Hessenberg Bohemian. From there, focusing on only those matrices whose characteristic…
In 2003, Cohn and Umans described a framework for proving upper bounds on the exponent $\omega$ of matrix multiplication by reducing matrix multiplication to group algebra multiplication, and in 2005 Cohn, Kleinberg, Szegedy, and Umans…
Most recent results in matrix completion assume that the matrix under consideration is low-rank or that the columns are in a union of low-rank subspaces. In real-world settings, however, the linear structure underlying these models is…
Let $F$ be the finite field of order $q$ and $\M(n,r, F)$ be the set of $n\times n$ matrices of rank $r$ over the field $F$. For $\alpha\in F$ and $A\in \M(n,F)$, let $$Z^{\alpha}_{A,r}=\left\{X\in \M(n,r, F)\mid \tr(AX)=\alpha\right \}.$$…
Whereas matrix rank is additive under direct sum, in 1981 Sch\"onhage showed that one of its generalizations to the tensor setting, tensor border rank, can be strictly subadditive for tensors of order three. Whether border rank is additive…
We study finite semigroups of $n \times n$ matrices with rational entries. Such semigroups provide a rich generalization of transition monoids of unambiguous (and, in particular, deterministic) finite automata. In this paper we determine…
Conditional on the extended Riemann hypothesis, we show that with high probability, the characteristic polynomial of a random symmetric $\{\pm 1\}$-matrix is irreducible. This addresses a question raised by Eberhard in recent work. The main…
We consider the set of finite random words $\mathcal A^\star$, with independent letters drawn from a finite or infinite totally ordered alphabet according to a general probability distribution. On a specific subset of $\mathcal A^\star$,…
