The first part of the paper centers in the study of embeddability between partially commutative groups. In [KK], for a finite simplicial graph $\Gamma$, the authors introduce an infinite, locally infinite graph $\Gamma^e$, called the…

Following the works by Lin et al. (Circuits Syst. Signal Process. 20(6): 601-618, 2001) and Liu et al. (Circuits Syst. Signal Process. 30(3): 553-566, 2011), we investigate how to factorize a class of multivariate polynomial matrices. The…

In this paper we consider systems of partial (multidimensional) linear difference equations. Specifically, such systems arise in scientific computing under discretization of linear partial differential equations and in computational high…

It has been recently discovered by Bell, Heinle and Levandovskyy that a large class of algebras, including the ubiquitous $G$-algebras, are finite factorization domains (FFD for short). Utilizing this result, we contribute an algorithm to…

Let $R$ be a commutative unital ring. A well-known factorization problem is whether any matrix in $\mathrm{SL}_n(R)$ is a product of elementary matrices with entries in $R$. To solve the problem, we use two approaches based on the notion of…

We propose a natural definition of a category of matrix factorizations for nonaffine Landau-Ginzburg models. For any LG-model we construct a fully faithful functor from the category of matrix factorizations defined in this way to the…

In this paper we generalise the notion of linearity (in the sense of Lawvere) to a category C equipped with a compatible sum structure and product structure. In this context, any morphism f from an n-fold sum to an n-fold product has a…

We consider the classical factorization problem of a third order ordinary differential operator $L-\lambda$, for a spectral parameter $\lambda$. It is assumed that $L$ is an algebro-geometric operator, that it has a nontrivial centralizer,…

We study several variants of decomposing a symmetric matrix into a sum of a low-rank positive semidefinite matrix and a diagonal matrix. Such decompositions have applications in factor analysis and they have been studied for many decades.…

We consider algorithms for the factorization of linear partial differential operators. We introduce several new theoretical notions in order to simplify such considerations. We define an obstacle and a ring of obstacles to factorizations.…

Suppose $\Gamma$ is a Carleson Jordan curve with logarithmic whirl points, $\varrho$ is a Khvedelidze weight, $p:\Gamma\to(1,\infty)$ is a continuous function satisfying $|p(\tau)-p(t)|\le -\mathrm{const}/\log|\tau-t|$ for $|\tau-t|\le…

Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) is widely used for clustering with strong interpretability. Among general NMF problems, symmetric NMF is a special one that plays an important role in graph clustering where each element measures the…

We prove that when a class of partial differential equations, generalized from the cable equation, is defined on tree graphs, and when the inputs are restricted to a spatially discrete, well chosen set of points, the Green's function (GF)…

We start with elementary algebraic theory of factorization of linear ordinary differential equations developed in the period 1880-1930. After exposing these classical results we sketch more sophisticated algorithmic approaches developed in…

We show that many important convex matrix functions can be represented as the partial infimal projection of the generalized matrix fractional (GMF) and a relatively simple convex function. This representation provides conditions under which…

The problem of finding independent components of an indexed object (e.g., a tensor) with arbitrary number of indices and arbitrary linear symmetries is discussed. It is proved that the number of independent components $f(k)$ is a polynomial…

We consider a stochastic sequence $\xi(m)$ with periodically stationary generalized multiple increments of fractional order which combines cyclostationary, multi-seasonal, integrated and fractionally integrated patterns. The filtering…

Let $G_n= \prod_{k=0}^n \binom{n}{k},$ the product of the elements of the $n$-th row of Pascal's triangle. This paper studies the partial factorizations of $G_n$ given by the product $G(n,x)$ of all prime factors $p$ of $G_n$ having $p \le…

This paper is concerned with the factorization and equivalence problems of multivariate polynomial matrices. We present some new criteria for the existence of matrix factorizations for a class of multivariate polynomial matrices, and obtain…

One of the most common types of functions in mathematics, physics, and engineering is a sum of products, sometimes called a partition function. After "normalization," a sum of products has a natural graphical representation, called a normal…
