One deals with degenerations by coordinate sections of the square generic Hankel matrix over a field $k$ of characteristic zero, along with its main related structures, such as the determinant of the matrix, the ideal generated by its…

We give a formula for the determinant of an $n\times n$ matrix with entries from a commutative ring with unit. The formula can be evaluated by a "straight-line program" performing only additions, subtractions and multiplications of ring…

Let ${\bf M}_n(\mathbb{F})$ be the algebra of $n\times n$ matrices over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$. We consider linear maps $\Phi: {\bf M}_n(\mathbb{F}) \rightarrow {\bf M}_r(\mathbb{F})$ preserving matrices annihilated by a fixed…

In this paper first we describe all (not necessarily linear or bijective) transformations on $\mathbb{R}^d$ with $2\leq d<\infty$ which preserve the area of parallelograms spanned by any two vectors. We also characterize those (not…

For a given $3 \times 3$ real matrix $A$, the eigenvalue complementarity problem relative to the Lorentz cone consists of finding a real number $\lambda$ and a nonzero vector $x \in \mathbb{R}^3$ such that $x^T(A-\lambda I)x=0$ and both $x$…

Can a smooth plane cubic be defined by the determinant of a square matrix with entries in linear forms in three variables? If we can, we say that it admits a linear determinantal representation. In this paper, we investigate linear…

Let $H_{n}^{+}(\mathbb{R})$ be the cone of all positive semidefinite $n\times n$ real matrices. Two of the best known partial orders that were mostly studied on subsets of square complex matrices are the L\"owner and the minus partial…

In the Determinant Maximization problem, given an $n\times n$ positive semi-definite matrix $\bf{A}$ in $\mathbb{Q}^{n\times n}$ and an integer $k$, we are required to find a $k\times k$ principal submatrix of $\bf{A}$ having the maximum…

We fix three natural numbers $k, n, N$, such that $n+k+1=N$, and introduce the notion of two dual arrangements of hyperplanes. One of the arrangements is an arrangement of $N$ hyperplanes in a $k$-dimensional affine space, the other is an…
