All matrices we consider have entries in a fixed algebraically closed field $K$. A minor of a square matrix is principal means it is defined by the same row and column indices. We study the ideal generated by size $t$ principal minors of a…
For $n$ a nonnegative integer, we consider the $n$-Laplacian $\Delta_n$ acting on the space of $n$-differentials on a confinite Riemann surface $X$ which has ramification points. The trace formula for the resolvent kernel is developed along…
In this paper, in continuation of our work, on the determinants of cubic -matrix of order 2 and order 3, we have analyzed the possibilities of developing the concept of determinant of cubic-matrix with three indexes, studying the…
The Hadamard maximal determinant problem asks for the largest n-by-n determinant with entries in {+1,-1}. When n is congruent to 1 (mod 4), the maximal excess construction of Farmakis & Kounias has been the most successful general method…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$. Let $X$ be a $2\times e$ matrix of linear forms over a polynomial ring $k[\mathsf{x}_1, \ldots,\mathsf{x}_n]$ (where $e,n\ge 1$). We prove that the determinantal ring $R =…
We study directions along which the norms of vectors are preserved under a linear map. In particular, we find families of matrices for which these directions are determined by integer vectors. We consider the two-dimensional case in detail,…
The paper is devoted to complete proofs of theorems on consistency on cubic lattices for $3 \times 3$ determinants. The discrete nonlinear equations on $\mathbb{Z}^2$ defined by the condition that the determinants of all $3 \times 3$…
The determinant for complex matrices cannot be extended to quaternionic matrices. Instead, the Study determinant and the closely related $q$-determinant are widely used. We show that the Study determinant can be characterized as the unique…
We characterize real and complex functions which, when applied entrywise to square matrices, yield a positive definite matrix if and only if the original matrix is positive definite. We refer to these transformations as sign preservers.…
In this paper, the determinants of $n\times n$ matrices over commutative finite chain rings and over commutative finite principal ideal rings are studied. The number of $n\times n$ matrices over a commutative finite chain ring ${R}$ of a…
This paper introduces a framework to study discrete optimization problems which are parametric in the following sense: their constraint matrices correspond to matrices over the ring $\mathbb{Z}[x]$ of polynomials in one variable. We…
The problem of expressing a multivariate polynomial as the determinant of a monic (definite) symmetric or Hermitian linear matrix polynomial (LMP) has drawn a huge amount of attention due to its connection with optimization problems. In…
We deploy algebraic complexity theoretic techniques for constructing symmetric determinantal representations of for00504925mulas and weakly skew circuits. Our representations produce matrices of much smaller dimensions than those given in…
In a celebrated paper of 1893, Hadamard established the maximal determinant theorem, which establishes an upper bound on the determinant of a matrix with complex entries of norm at most $1$. His paper concludes with the suggestion that…
Effective computation of resultants is a central problem in elimination theory and polynomial system solving. Commonly, we compute the resultant as a quotient of determinants of matrices and we say that there exists a determinantal formula…
The permanent of a square matrix is defined in a way similar to the determinant, but without using signs. The exact computation of the permanent is hard, but there are Monte-Carlo algorithms that can estimate general permanents. Given a…
One of the most significant challenges in Computing Determinant of Rectangular Matrices is high time complexity of its algorithm. Among all definitions of determinant of rectangular matrices, used definition has special features which make…
Let $\{a_k\}$ be a sequence of real numbers defined by an $m$th order linear homogenous recurrence relation. In this paper we obtain a determinant formula for the circulant matrix $A=circ(a_1, a_2, \cdots, a_n)$, providing a generalization…
We prove that the logarithm of the determinant of a Wigner matrix satisfies a central limit theorem in the limit of large dimension. Previous results about fluctuations of such determinants required that the first four moments of the matrix…
An element of the algebra $M_n(\mathbb{F})$ of $n \times n$ matrices over a field $\mathbb{F}$ is called an involution if its square equals the identity matrix. Gustafson, Halmos, and Radjavi proved that any product of involutions in…
