Square matrices represent linear self-maps of vector spaces, and their eigenpoints are the fixed points of the induced map on projective space. Likewise, polynomial self-maps of a projective space are represented by tensors. We study the…
A metrized graph is a compact singular 1-manifold endowed with a metric. A given metrized graph can be modelled by a family of weighted combinatorial graphs. If one chooses a sequence of models from this family such that the vertices become…
Matrix pencils, or pairs of matrices, are used in a variety of applications. By the Kronecker decomposition Theorem, they admit a normal form. This normal form consists of four parts, one part based on the Jordan canonical form, one part…
For a Lie algebra ${\mathcal L}$ with basis $\{x_1,x_2,\cdots,x_n\}$, its associated characteristic polynomial $Q_{{\mathcal L}}(z)$ is the determinant of the linear pencil $z_0I+z_1\text{ad} x_1+\cdots +z_n\text{ad} x_n.$ This paper shows…
We solve the problem of determining the Weierstrass structure of a regular matrix pencil obtained by a low rank perturbation of another regular matrix pencil. We apply the result to find necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence…
Some binary matrices like (1,-1) and (1,0) were studied by many authors like Cohn, Wang, Ehlich and Ehlich and Zeller, and Mohan, Kageyama, Lee, and Gao. In this recent paper by Mohan et al considered the M-matrices of Type I and II by…
We prove that if two Calabi-Yau invertible pencils have the same dual weights, then they share a common factor in their zeta functions. By using Dwork cohomology, we demonstrate that this common factor is related to a hypergeometric…
Formulas for matrix determinants, algebraic adjunctions, characteristic polynomial coefficients, components of eigenvectors are obtained in the form of signless sums of matrix elements products taking by special graphs. Signless formulas…
The standard approach for finding eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrix polynomials starts by embedding the coefficients of the polynomial into a matrix pencil, known as linearization. Building on the pioneering work of Nakatsukasa and…
The sextic plane curves that are invariant under the standard action of the icosahedral group on the projective plane make up a pencil of genus ten curves (spanned by a sum of six lines and a three times a conic). This pencil was first…
Let S=(s_1,s_2,..., s_m) and T = (t_1,t_2,..., t_n) be vectors of non-negative integers with sum_{i=1}^{m} s_i = sum_{j=1}^n t_j. Let B(S,T) be the number of m*n matrices over {0,1} with j-th row sum equal to s_j for 1 <= j <= m and k-th…
In arXiv:2401.00636 we introduced the notion of a periodic pencil of flat connections on a smooth variety $X$. Namely, a pencil is a linear family of flat connections $\nabla(s_1,...,s_n)=d-\sum_{i=1}^r\sum_{j=1}^ns_jB_{ij}dx_i,$ where…
Let G be a graph with undirected and directed edges. Its representation is given by assigning a vector space to each vertex, a bilinear form on the corresponding vector spaces to each directed edge, and a linear map to each directed edge.…
Geometrically, the eigenvectors of a square matrix $\mathbf{A}$ are not rotated by $\mathbf{A}$. Here we consider vectors that are rotated $\pi/2$ by $\mathbf{A}$; that is, vectors orthogonal to their images. We call these vectors…
A real square matrix $A$ of order $n \times n~ (n \geq 3)$ is called an $F_0$-matrix, if it is a $Z$-matrix (off-diagonal entries nonpositive), all of whose principal submatrices of orders at most $n-2$ are $M$-matrices while there is at…
Let $d$ and $n$ be integers satisfying $C\leq d\leq \exp(c\sqrt{\ln n})$ for some universal constants $c, C>0$, and let $z\in \mathbb{C}$. Denote by $M$ the adjacency matrix of a random $d$-regular directed graph on $n$ vertices. In this…
In this paper we study two classes of graphs, the (m,k)-stars and l-dependent graphs, investigating the relation between spectrum characteristics and graph structure: conditions on the topology and edge weights are given in order to get…
To a generic configuration of eight points in convex position in the plane, we associate a list consisting of the following information: for all of the 56 conics determined by five of the points, we specify the position of each remaining…
For linear operators $L, T$ and nonlinear maps $P$, we describe classes of simple maps $F = I - P T$, $F = L - P$ between Banach and Hilbert spaces, for which no point has more than two preimages. The classes encompass known examples…
We prove that, given two matrix pencils $L$ and $M$, if $M$ belongs to the closure of the orbit of $L$ under strict equivalence, then the dimension of the orbit of $M$ is smaller than or equal to the dimension of the orbit of $L$, and the…
