In nonadaptive group testing, the main research objective is to design an efficient algorithm to identify a set of up to $t$ positive elements among $n$ samples with as few tests as possible. Disjunct matrices and separable matrices are two…
Let $H_n$ be the row space of a signed adjacency matrix of a $C_4$-free bipartite bi-regular graph in which one part has degree $d(n)\to\infty$ and the other part has degree $k+1$ where $k\geq 1$ is a fixed integer. We show that the local…
We consider a parametric family of quadratically constrained quadratic programs (QCQP) and their associated semidefinite programming (SDP) relaxations. Given a nominal value of the parameter at which the SDP relaxation is exact, we study…
We continue the study of real polynomials acting entrywise on matrices of fixed dimension to preserve positive semidefiniteness, together with the related analysis of order properties of Schur polynomials. Previous work has shown that,…
This paper considers an idempotent and symmetrical algebraic structure as well as some closely related concept. A special notion of determinant is introduced and a Cramer formula is derived for a class of limit systems derived from the…
This paper studies the problem of decomposing a low-rank positive-semidefinite matrix into symmetric factors with binary entries, either $\{\pm 1\}$ or $\{0,1\}$. This research answers fundamental questions about the existence and…
We explicitly describe the divisor class groups and semidualizing modules for ladder determinantal rings with coefficients in an arbitrary normal domain for arbitrary ladders, not necessarily connected, and all sizes of minors.
In seminal work, Lov\'asz, Spencer, and Vesztergombi [European J. Combin., 1986] proved a lower bound for the hereditary discrepancy of a matrix $A \in \mathbb{R}^{m \times n}$ in terms of the maximum $|\det(B)|^{1/k}$ over all $k \times k$…
This paper develops a unified analytical framework for determinant identities under finite-rank perturbations of square matrices that remains valid without invertibility assumptions. In contrast to classical inverse-based formulations, the…
It is known that any symmetric matrix $M$ with entries in $\R[x]$ and which is positive semi-definite for any substitution of $x\in\R$, has a Smith normal form whose diagonal coefficients are constant sign polynomials in $\R[x]$. We…
We analyze when an arbitrary matrix pencil is equivalent to a dissipative Hamiltonian pencil and show that this heavily restricts the spectral properties. In order to relax the spectral properties, we introduce matrix pencils with…
The main goal of this paper is to prove existence and non-existence results for deterministic Kardar-Parisi-Zhang type equations involving non-local "gradient terms". More precisely, let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$, $N \geq 2$, be a…
We consider second-order partial differential operators $H$ in divergence form on $\Ri^d$ with a positive-semidefinite, symmetric, matrix $C$ of real $L_\infty$-coefficients and establish that $H$ is strongly elliptic if and only if the…
A new relaxed variant of interior point method for low-rank semidefinite programming problems is proposed in this paper. The method is a step outside of the usual interior point framework. In anticipation to converging to a low-rank primal…
We extend the proof of the local semicircle law for generalized Wigner matrices given in [4] to the case when the matrix of variances has an eigenvalue $ -1 $. In particular, this result provides a short proof of the optimal local…
This paper is concerned with the calmness of a partial perturbation to the composite rank constraint system, an intersection of the rank constraint set and a general closed set, which is shown to be equivalent to a local Lipschitz-type…
This paper concerns parameterized convex infinite (or semi-infinite) inequality systems whose decision variables run over general infinite-dimensional Banach (resp. finite-dimensional) spaces and that are indexed by an arbitrary fixed set T…
In this note we consider boundary point principles for partial differential inequalities of elliptic type. Firstly, we highlight the difference between conditions required to establish classical strong maximum principles and classical…
We consider the general polynomial optimization problem $P: f^*=\min \{f(x)\,:\,x\in K\}$ where $K$ is a compact basic semi-algebraic set. We first show that the standard Lagrangian relaxation yields a lower bound as close as desired to the…
This paper improves previously known bounds on the determinant of 0-1 matrices where each row has fixed support size. This uses a method based on Scheinerman's, with new analyses to improve upon his conjectures.
