In this paper, we study the class of relatively $D$-stable matrices and provide the conditions, sufficient for relative $D$-stability. We generalize the well-known Hadamard inequality, to provide upper bounds for the determinants of…
We give upper bounds for the determinant of an $n\times n$ zero-one matrix containing $kn$ ones for integral $k$. Our results improve upon a result of Ryser for $k=o(n^{1/3})$. For fixed $k\ge 3$ it was an open question whether Hadamard's…
We develop a one step matrix method in order to obtain approximate solutions of first order systems and non-linear ordinary differential equations, reducible to first order systems. We find a sequence of such solutions that converge to the…
The rigidity of a matrix describes the minimal number of entries one has to change to reduce matrix's rank to r. We give very simple combinatorial proof of the lower bound for the rigidity of Sylvester (special case of Hadamard) matrix that…
Let $A$ be an $n \times M$ matrix whose rows are orthonormal. Let $A_I$ be a submatrix of $A$ whose column indexes belong to the set $I$. Given $\epsilon >0$ we estimate the smallest cardinality of the set $I$, such that the operator $A_I$…

The notion of type of quadruples of rows is proven to be useful in the classification of Hadamard matrices. In this paper, we investigate Hadamard matrices with few distinct types. Among other results, the Sylvester Hadamard matrices are…
We construct new pairs of orthogonal maximal abelian $*$-subalgebras of $M_6(\mathbb C)$, by classifying all self-adjoint complex Hadamard matrices of order 6. In particular, we exhibit a non-affine one-parameter family of non-equivalent…
We study the complexity of approximating the permanent of a positive semidefinite matrix $A\in \mathbb{C}^{n\times n}$. 1. We design a new approximation algorithm for $\mathrm{per}(A)$ with approximation ratio $e^{(0.9999 + \gamma)n}$,…
We update the list of odd integers n<10000 for which an Hadamard matrix of order 4n is known to exist. We also exhibit the first example of base sequences BS(40,39). Consequently, there exist T-sequences TS(n) of length n=79. The first…
The condition numbers $CN(T)==||T|| .||T^{-1}|| $ of Toeplitz and analytic $n\times n$ matrices $T$ are studied. It is shown that the supremum of $CN(T)$ over all such matrices with $||T|| \leq1$ and the given minimum of eigenvalues…
The Nystr\"om method is a popular choice for finding a low-rank approximation to a symmetric positive semi-definite matrix. The method can fail when applied to symmetric indefinite matrices, for which the error can be unboundedly large. In…
he segment minimization problem consists of finding the smallest set of integer matrices that sum to a given intensity matrix, such that each summand has only one non-zero value, and the non-zeroes in each row are consecutive. This has…

We consider real orthogonal $n\times n$ matrices whose diagonal entries are zero and off-diagonal entries nonzero, which we refer to as $\mathrm{OMZD}(n)$. We show that there exists an $\mathrm{OMZD}(n)$ if and only if $n\neq 1,\ 3$, and…
The Carmichael lambda function $\lambda(n)$ is defined to be the smallest positive integer $m$ such that $a^m \equiv 1 \pmod{n}$ for all $(a,n)=1.$ $\lambda_k(n)$ is defined to be the $k$th iterate of $\lambda(n).$ Let L(n) be the smallest…
