The structure of three pattern classes Av(2143, 4321), Av(2143, 4312) and Av(1324, 4312) is determined using the machinery of monotone grid classes. This allows the permutations in these classes to be described in terms of simple diagrams…

Given a permutation of size $n$, we consider its associated grid graph whose $i$th column has height equal to the $i$th entry, with vertical edges between consecutive levels and horizontal edges between equal levels in adjacent columns. We…

We give lower bounds on the largest singular value of arbitrary matrices, some of which are asymptotically tight for almost all matrices. To study when these bounds are exact, we introduce several combinatorial concepts. In particular, we…

We initiate a study of the zero-nonzero patterns of n by n alternating sign matrices. We characterize the row (column) sum vectors of these patterns and determine their minimum term rank. In the case of connected alternating sign matrices,…

Known classification results allow us to find the number of (equivalence classes of) fine gradings on matrix algebras and on classical simple Lie algebras over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{F}$ (assuming $\mathrm{char}…

Let $A=(a_{ij})$ be an $n$-by-$n$ matrix. For any real number $\mu$, we define the polynomial $$P_\mu(A)=\sum_{\sigma\in S_n} a_{1\sigma(1)}\cdots a_{n\sigma(n)}\,\mu^{\ell(\sigma)}\; ,$$ as the $\mu$-permanent of $A$, where $\ell(\sigma)$…

Let $B$ be some invertible Hermitian or skew-Hermitian matrix. A matrix $A$ is called $B$-normal if $AA^\star = A^\star A$ holds for $A$ and its adjoint matrix $A^\star := B^{-1}A^HB$. In addition, a matrix $Q$ is called $B$-unitary, if…

The number of non-negative integer matrices with given row and column sums appears in a variety of problems in mathematics and statistics but no closed-form expression for it is known, so we rely on approximations of various kinds. Here we…

We present a classification of non-hermitian random matrices based on implementing commuting discrete symmetries. It contains 38 classes. This generalizes the classification of hermitian random matrices due to Altland-Zirnbauer and it also…

The almost-principal rank characteristic sequence (apr-sequence) of an $n\times n$ symmetric matrix is introduced, which is defined to be the string $a_1 a_2 \cdots a_{n-1}$, where $a_k$ is either $\tt A$, $\tt S$, or $\tt N$, according as…

We study a further refinement of the standard refined enumeration of alternating sign matrices (ASMs) according to their first two rows instead of just the first row, and more general "d-refined" enumerations of ASMs according to the first…

We consider the problems of finding optimal identifying codes, (open) locating-dominating sets and resolving sets of an interval or a permutation graph. In these problems, one asks to find a subset of vertices, normally called a…

We realize many sharp spectral bounds of the spectral radius of a nonnegative square matrix $C$ by using the largest real eigenvalues of suitable matrices of smaller sizes related to $C$ that are very easy to find. As applications, we give…

Motivated by classification, up to order isomorphism, of some dense subgroups of Euclidean space that are free of minimal rank, we obtain apparently new invariants for an equivalence relation (intermediate between Hermite and Smith) on…

V.I. Arnold [Russian Math. Surveys 26(2) (1971) 29-43] constructed a miniversal deformation of a square complex matrix under similarity; that is, a simple normal form to which not only a given square matrix A but all matrices B close to it…

Let $F$ be a $k\times \ell$ (0,1)-matrix. A matrix is simple if it is a (0,1)-matrix with no repeated columns. A (0,1)-matrix $A$ is said to have a $F$ as a configuration if there is a submatrix of $A$ which is a row and column permutation…

This work introduces a new class of symmetric matrix structures, called harmonic structures, which enable the generation of all possible directed transitions $(x_i, x_{i+1})$ over a set of $n$ symbols, without internal repetitions. Unlike…

It was shown recently by the authors that, for any n, there is equality between the distributions of certain triplets of statistics on nxn alternating sign matrices (ASMs) and descending plane partitions (DPPs) with each part at most n. The…

Under the action of the general linear group with tensor structure, the ranks of matrices $A$ and $B$ forming an $m \times n$ pencil $A + \lambda B$ can change, but in a restricted manner. Specifically, with every pencil one can associate a…

The regular objects in various categories, such as maps, hypermaps or covering spaces, can be identified with the normal subgroups N of a given group \Gamma, with quotient group isomorphic to \Gamma/N. It is shown how to enumerate such…
