The concept of the integrated adjacency matrix for mixed graphs was first introduced in [9], where its spectral properties were analyzed in relation to the structural characteristics of the mixed graph. Building upon this foundation, this…
The pentagram map, introduced by R. Schwartz, is defined by the following construction: given a polygon as input, draw all of its "shortest" diagonals, and output the smaller polygon which they cut out. We employ the machinery of cluster…
We study $n$-dimensional matrices with $\{0,1\}$-entries ($n$-cubes) such that all their $2$-dimensional slices are incidence matrices of symmetric designs. A known construction of these objects obtained from difference sets is generalized…
Given an ordered triple of positive integers $(n,r,b)$, where $1\leq b\leq\binom{n}{r}$, does there exist a matrix of size $r\times n$ with exactly $b$ invertible submatrices of size $r\times r$? Such a matrix is called an $(n,r,b)$-matrix.…
The "2-variable general-$\lambda$-matrix polynomials (2VG$\lambda$MP)" is a new family of matrix polynomials, introduced and studied in this article. These matrix polynomials are constructed using umbral and symbolic methods. We delve into…
Finite matroids are combinatorial structures that express the concept of linear independence. In 1964, G.-C. Rota conjectured that the coefficients of the "characteristic polynomial" of a matroid $M$, polynomial whose coefficients enumerate…
We show that (k,m)-linear mappings, introduced by I. Chernega and A. Zagorodnyuk in [3], are particular cases of polynomials. As corollaries, we expose some apparently overlooked properties in the literature. For instance, every multilinear…
Quaternary unit Hadamard (QUH) matrices were introduced by Fender, Kharagani and Suda along with a method to construct them at prime power orders. We present a novel construction of real Hadamard matrices from QUH matrices. Our construction…
We introduce mutually unbiased complex Hadamard (MUCH) matrices and show that the number of MUCH matrices of order 2n, n odd, is at most 2 and the bound is attained for n = 1,5,9. Furthermore, we prove that certain pairs of mutually…
Convolutions or Hadamard products of analytic functions is a well explored area of research and many nice results are available in literature. On the other hand, very little is known in general about the convolutions of univalent harmonic…
We propose a new class of mathematical structures called (m,n)-semirings} (which generalize the usual semirings), and describe their basic properties. We also define partial ordering, and generalize the concepts of congruence, homomorphism,…
We study the spectra of mixed graphs about its Hermitian adjacency matrix of the second kind (i.e. N-matrix) introduced by Mohar [1]. We extend some results and define one new Hermitian adjacency matrix, and the entry corresponding to an…
We consider algebras of $m\times m\times m$-cubic matrices (with $m=1,2,\dots$). Since there are several kinds of multiplications of cubic matrices, one has to specify a multiplication first and then define an algebra of cubic matrices…
We present a preliminary study of Schur norms $\|M\|_{S}=\max\{ \|M\circ C\|: \|C\|=1\}$, where M is a matrix whose entries are $\pm1$, and $\circ$ denotes the entrywise (i.e., Schur or Hadamard) product of the matrices. We show that, if…
The quasi-Clifford algebras, and their Wedderburn structure and representation theory, as described by Gastineau-Hills in 1980 and 1982, should be better known, and have only recently been rediscovered. These algebras and their…
Part B (of a project involving four Parts) is about "bases of lines", a concept introduced by C. Herrmann and the author in the late 80's. Bases of lines attempt to describe a given modular lattice in a geometric way akin to how projective…
First examples of symmetric Hadamard matrices of orders 508 and 764 are constructed. The method used is known as the propus construction. A conjecture regarding this method is formally proposed but it appears implicitly in three previous…
A binary matrix has the Consecutive Ones Property (C1P) if its columns can be ordered in such a way that all 1s on each row are consecutive. These matrices are used for DNA physical mapping and ancestral genome reconstruction in…
In this paper, we have constructed the higher order k-bonacci matrices and studied some of their basic properties. We have also shown that these matrices satisfying some new and interesting relations in k-bonacci recurrence. This is the…
An $n \times n$ matrix $H$ is Butson-Hadamard if its entries are $k^{\text{th}}$ roots of unity and it satisfies $HH^* = nI_n$. Write $BH(n, k)$ for the set of such matrices. Suppose that $k = p^{\alpha}q^{\beta}$ where $p$ and $q$ are…
