The process of alternately row scaling and column scaling a positive $n \times n$ matrix $A$ converges to a doubly stochastic positive $n \times n$ matrix $S(A)$, often called the \emph{Sinkhorn limit} of $A$. The main result in this paper…

Inspired by the works of L. Carlitz and Z.-W. Sun on cyclotomic matrices, in this paper, we investigate certain cyclotomic matrices involving Gauss sums over finite fields, which can be viewed as finite field analogues of certain matrices…

Let $n\ge 2$ be an integer. Let $R_n$ denote the $n\times n$ tridiagonal matrix with -1's on the sub-diagonal, 1's on the super-diagonal, -1 in the (1,1) entry, 1 in the (n,n) entry and zeros elsewhere. This paper shows that $R_n$ is…

It is well known that if a finite order linear differential operator with polynomial coefficients has as eigenfunctions a sequence of orthogonal polynomials with respect to a positive measure (with support in the real line), then its order…

Let $\mathbb{N}$ be the set of natural numbers and $\mathcal{S}_r=\big\{1^r, 2^r, 3^r,\cdots\big\}$ the set of $r$-th powers, where $r\ge 2$ is a natural number. Let $\mathcal{W}_r$ be an additive complement of $\mathcal{S}_r$ and $$…

A well-known problem in Algebraic Combinatorics, is the enumeration of circulant graphs. The failure of Adam's Conjecture for such graphs with order containing a repeated prime, led researchers to investigate the problem using two different…

We study the structure of unit weighing matrices of order n and weights 2, 3 and 4. We show that the number of inequivalent unit weighing matrices UW(n,4) depends on the number of decompositions of n into sums of non-negative multiples of…

A weighing matrix $W$ of order $n=\frac{p^{m+1}-1}{p-1}$ and weight $p^m$ is constructed and shown that the rows of $W$ and $-W$ form optimal constant weight ternary codes of length $n$, weight $p^m$ and minimum distance…

Let $M_n(\mathbb{Z})$ the ring of $n$-by-$n$ matrices with integral entries, and $n \geq 2$. This paper studies the set $G_n(\mathbb{Z})$ of pairs $(A,B) \in M_n(\mathbb{Z})^2$ generating $M_n(\mathbb{Z})$ as a ring. We use several…

For the word $\omega = \underbrace{11\ldots 1}_{x_1}\underbrace{22\ldots2}_{x_2}\ldots\underbrace{nn\ldots n}_{x_n},$ denote by $\mathsf{A}(x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_n)$ the number of its anagrams without fixed letters. While the function…

Let $\mathbb{A}_n^m$ be an arbitrary $n$-dimensional commutative associative algebra over the field of complex numbers with $m$ idempotents. Let $e_1=1,e_2,\ldots,e_k$ with $2\leq k\leq 2n$ be elements of $\mathbb{A}_n^m$ which are linearly…

Let $I_k = [(2k-1)^2, (2k+1)^2)$ for $k \geq 1$. Starting from the odd-composite matrix $(b_{ij})$ with $b_{ij} = (2i-1)(2j-1)$, introduced by the author in [1], we define for each odd integer $n$ the \emph{matrix multiplicity} $r(n)$, the…

For a set of nonnegative integers $A$, denote by $R_{A}(n)$ the number of unordered representations of the integer $n$ as the sum of two different terms from $A$. In this paper we partially describe the structure of the sets, which have…

While Kronecker coefficients $g(\lambda,\mu,\nu)$ with bounded rows are polynomial-time computable via lattice-point methods, no explicit closed-form formulas have been obtained for genuinely three-row cases in the 87 years since…

For n=1,2,3,... let p_n be the n-th prime. We mainly show that p_n>n+sum_{k=1}^n p_k/k for all n>124, and sum_{k=1}^n kp_k<n^2p_n/3 for all n>30.

The article presents results on the well-known problem concerning the structure of integer polynomials $p_n(z; x, y)$, which define multiplication laws in $n$-valued groups $\mathbb{G}_n$ over the field of complex numbers $\mathbb{C}$. We…

In this paper we find a third order unimodular matrix, none of whose entries is $1$ or $-1$, such that when each entry of the matrix is replaced by its cube, the resulting matrix is also unimodular. Further, we find third order square…

Alternating sign triangles were introduced by Carroll and Speyer in relation to cube recurrence, by analogy to alternating sign matrices for octahedron recurrence. Permutation triangles are the alternating sign triangles whose entries are…

We consider directed graphs where each edge is labeled with an integer weight and study the fundamental algorithmic question of computing the value of a cycle with minimum mean weight. Our contributions are twofold: (1) First we show that…

For each non-negative integer $n$ let $\mathcal{A}_n$ be an $n+1$ by $n+1$ Toeplitz matrix over a finite field, $F$, and suppose for each $n$ that $\mathcal{A}_n$ is embedded in the upper left corner of $\mathcal{A}_{n+1}$. We study the…
