We consider the problem of computing the rank of an m x n matrix A over a field. We present a randomized algorithm to find a set of r = rank(A) linearly independent columns in \~O(|A| + r^\omega) field operations, where |A| denotes the…
Pattern avoidance is a central topic in graph theory and combinatorics. Pattern avoidance in matrices has applications in computer science and engineering, such as robot motion planning and VLSI circuit design. A $d$-dimensional zero-one…
The number of non-negative integer matrices with given row and column sums appears in a variety of problems in mathematics and statistics but no closed-form expression for it is known, so we rely on approximations of various kinds. Here we…
Given a real matrix A with n columns, the problem is to approximate the Gram product AA^T by c << n weighted outer products of columns of A. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the exact computation of AA^T (in exact arithmetic) from c…
We prove that $\det A\leq 6^\frac{n}{6}$ whenever $A\in\{0,1\}^{n\times n}$ contains at most $2n$ ones. We also prove an upper bound on the determinant of matrices with the $k$-consecutive ones property, a generalisation of the consecutive…
Higher-dimensional analogs of the predictable degree property and column reducedness are defined, and it is proved that the two properties are equivalent. It is shown that every multidimensional convolutional code has, what is called, a…
For each proper minor-closed subclass $\cM$ of the $\GF(q^2)$-representable matroids containing all simple $\GF(q)$-representable matroids, we give, for all large $r$, a tight upper bound on the number of points in a rank-$r$ matroid in…
A real symmetric matrix $M$ is completely positive semidefinite if it admits a Gram representation by (Hermitian) positive semidefinite matrices of any size $d$. The smallest such $d$ is called the (complex) completely positive semidefinite…
This article provides a comprehensive exploration of submodular maximization problems, focusing on those subject to uniform and partition matroids. Crucial for a wide array of applications in fields ranging from computer science to systems…
Given a generic semidefinite program, specified by matrices with rational entries, each coordinate of its optimal solution is an algebraic number. We study the degree of the minimal polynomials of these algebraic numbers. Geometrically,…
A long line of research on fixed parameter tractability of integer programming culminated with showing that integer programs with n variables and a constraint matrix with dual tree-depth d and largest entry D are solvable in time…
A recent conjecture of Caputo, Carlen, Lieb, and Loss, and, independently, of the author, states that the maximum of the permanent of a matrix whose rows are unit vectors in l_p is attained either for the identity matrix I or for a constant…
In this paper, we study the structure of set-multilinear arithmetic circuits and set-multilinear branching programs with the aim of showing lower bound results. We define some natural restrictions of these models for which we are able to…
An algorithm for obtaining all n\times n binary matrices having exactly 2 units in every row and every column is described in the paper. After analysing the work of the algorithm a formula for calculating the number of these matrices has…
We consider the problem of sparse matrix multiplication by the column row method in a distributed setting where the matrix product is not necessarily sparse. We present a surprisingly simple method for "consistent" parallel processing of…
We study the algebraic matroid induced by the ideal of (r+1)-minors of a matrix of variables over a field. This is inherently connected to the bounded-rank matrix completion problem, in which the aim is to complete a partially observed rank…
A combinatorial rectangle may be viewed as a matrix whose entries are all +-1. The discrepancy of an m by n matrix is the maximum among the absolute values of its m row sums and n column sums. In this paper, we investigate combinatorial…
For many common height functions, it is notoriously hard to compute the essential minimum. Nevertheless there are two classical methods, one giving lower bounds and the other giving upper bounds. In this paper, we show that the two methods…
For $e$ a positive integer, we find restrictions modulo $2^e$ on the coefficients of the characteristic polynomial $\chi_S(x)$ of a Seidel matrix $S$. We show that, for a Seidel matrix of order $n$ even (resp. odd), there are at most…
