Any nonsingular function of spin j matrices always reduces to a matrix polynomial of order 2j. The challenge is to find a convenient form for the coefficients of the matrix polynomial. The theory of biorthogonal systems is a useful…

The classic likelihood ratio test for testing the equality of two covariance matrices breakdowns due to the singularity of the sample covariance matrices when the data dimension $p$ is larger than the sample size $n$. In this paper, we…

Wall-Sun-Sun primes (shortly WSS primes) are defined as those primes $p$ such that the period of the Fibonacci recurrence is the same modulo $p$ and modulo $p^2.$ This concept has been generalized recently to certain second order…

Polynomial identity testing and arithmetic circuit lower bounds are two central questions in algebraic complexity theory. It is an intriguing fact that these questions are actually related. One of the authors of the present paper has…

For an integer $n\geq 8$ divisible by $4$, let $R_n=\mathbb{Z}[\zeta_n,1/2]$ and let $\operatorname{U}_2(R_n)$ be the group of $2\times 2$ unitary matrices with entries in $R_n$. Set…

Circulant matrices are an important tool widely used in coding theory and cryptography. A circulant matrix is a square matrix whose rows are the cyclic shifts of the first row. Such a matrix can be efficiently stored in memory because it is…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$ and $G$ a finite abelian group. For a $G$-graded $K$-algebra $A$, we define the primeness property for graded central polynomials: for any graded polynomials $f$ and $g$ in…

We give a new proof of Fitzgerald's criterion for primitive polynomials over a finite field. Existing proofs essentially use the theory of linear recurrences over finite fields. Here, we give a much shorter and self-contained proof which…

Let $G=C_n\oplus C_n$ and let $k\in [0,n-1]$. We study the structure of sequences of terms from $G$ with maximal length $|S|=2n-2+k$ that fail to contain a nontrivial zero-sum subsequence of length at most $2n-1-k$. For $k\leq 1$, this is…

The objective of the matrix selection problem is to select a submatrix $A_{S}\in \mathbb{R}^{n\times k}$ from $A\in \mathbb{R}^{n\times m}$ such that its minimum singular value is maximized. In this paper, we employ the interlacing…

Recently there has been quite a bit of study carried out related to arithmetic properties of overpartitions into non-multiples of two co-prime integers. The paper [19] by Nadji et al. looked into congruences modulo $3$ and powers of $2$ for…

Given two $\left( n+1\right) \times\left( n+1\right)$-matrices $A$ and $B$ over a commutative ring, and some $k\in\left\{ 0,1,\ldots,n\right\}$, we consider the $\dbinom{n}{k}\times\dbinom{n}{k}$-matrix $W$ whose entries are $\left(…

Let $q = p^s$ be a power of a prime number $p$ and let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field with $q$ elements. In this paper we obtain the explicit factorization of the cyclotomic polynomial $\Phi_{2^nr}$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$ where both $r…

The roots of any polynomial of degree m with integer coefficients, can be computed by manipulation of sequences made from 2m distinct symbols and counting the different symbols in the sequences. This method requires only 'primitive'…

A square matrix of order n with $n\geq 2$ is called permutative matrix when all its rows (up to the frst one) are permutations of precisely its frst row. In this paper recalling spectral results for partitioned into $2$-by-$2$ symmetric…

We develop a new symbolic-numeric algorithm for the certification of singular isolated points, using their associated local ring structure and certified numerical computations. An improvement of an existing method to compute inverse systems…

We show in this paper that after proper scalings, the characteristic polynomial of a random unitary matrix converges almost surely to a random analytic function whose zeros, which are on the real line, form a determinantal point process…

In this paper, we concentrate on counting and testing dominant polynomials with integer coefficients. A polynomial is called dominant if it has a simple root whose modulus is strictly greater than the moduli of its remaining roots. In…

Given a positive integer $r$ and a prime power $q$, we estimate the probability that the characteristic polynomial $f_{A}(t)$ of a random matrix $A$ in $\mathrm{GL}_{n}(\mathbb{F}_{q})$ is square-free with $r$ (monic) irreducible factors…

When doubly-affine matrices such as Latin and magic squares with a single non-zero eigenvalue are powered up they become constant matrices after a few steps. The process of compounding squares of orders m and n can then be used to generate…
