We present a method for the determination of the completely positive (CP) map describing a physical device based on random preparation of the input states, random measurements at the output, and maximum-likelihood principle. In the…

Positive definite matrices abound in a dazzling variety of applications. This ubiquity can be in part attributed to their rich geometric structure: positive definite matrices form a self-dual convex cone whose strict interior is a…

Matrix completion results deal with the question of when a partially specified symmetric matrix can be completed to a member of certain matrix cones. Results from positive semidefinite matrix completion and completely positive matrix…

Maps that are not completely positive (CP) are often useful to describe the dynamics of open systems. An apparent violation of complete positivity can occur because there are prior correlations of the principal system with the environment,…

A matrix is homogeneous if all of its entries are equal. Let $P$ be a $2\times 2$ zero-one matrix that is not homogeneous. We prove that if an $n\times n$ zero-one matrix $A$ does not contain $P$ as a submatrix, then $A$ has an $cn\times…

We investigate the completely positive semidefinite cone $\mathcal{CS}_+^n$, a new matrix cone consisting of all $n\times n$ matrices that admit a Gram representation by positive semidefinite matrices (of any size). In particular we study…

Let $X^{(2)}$ denote the second symmetric product space of a partially ordered vector space $X$, endowed with the projective cone. A characterization of linear maps $T\colon X^{(2)}\to X^{(2)}$ which preserve the set of all positive…

We initiate a study of linear maps on $M_n(\mathbb{C})$ that have the property that they factor through a tracial von Neumann algebra $(\mathcal{A,\tau})$ via operators $Z\in M_n(\mathcal{A})$ whose entries consist of positive elements from…

Positive maps are useful for detecting entanglement in quantum information theory. Any entangled state can be detected by some positive map. In this paper, the relation between positive block matrices and completely positive…

Physical transformations are described by linear maps that are completely positive and trace preserving (CPTP). However, maps that are positive (P) but not completely positive (CP) are instrumental to derive separability/entanglement…

Conjugate partial-symmetric (CPS) tensor is a generalization of Hermitian matrices. For the CPS tensor decomposition some properties are presented. For real CPS tensors in particular, we note the subtle difference from the complex case of…

This paper proposes an efficient algorithm for testing copositivity of homogeneous polynomials over the positive semidefinite cone. The algorithm is based on a novel matrix optimization reformulation and requires solving a hierarchy of…

We propose an analytic center cutting plane method to determine if a matrix is completely positive, and return a cut that separates it from the completely positive cone if not. This was stated as an open (computational) problem by Berman,…

We find that spontaneously broken parity (P) or left-right symmetry stabilizes dark matter in a beautiful way. If dark matter has a non-real intrinsic parity \pm i (e.g. Majorana fermions), parity can ensure that it cannot decay to all…

Let $(M, \om)$ be a symplectic manifold, endowed with a compatible almost complex structure J and the associated metric g . For any p \in {1, 2, ... (dim M)/2} the form $\Om := \frac{\om^p}{p!}$ is a calibration. More generally, dropping…

Let $D$ denote a positive integer and let $Q_D$ denote the graph of the $D$-dimensional hypercube. Let $X$ denote the vertex set of $Q_D$ and let $A \in \MX$ denote the adjacency matrix of $Q_D$. A matrix $B \in \MX$ is called $A$-{\em…

In this paper, eventually totally positive matrices (i.e. matrices all whose powers starting with some point are totally positive) are studied. We present a new approach to eventual total positivity which is based on the theory of…

We consider the set Bp of parametric block correlation matrices with p blocks of various (and possibly different) sizes, whose diagonal blocks are compound symmetry (CS) correlation matrices and off-diagonal blocks are constant matrices.…

Finding the inverse of a matrix is an open problem especially when it comes to engineering problems due to their complexity and running time (cost) of matrix inversion algorithms. An optimum strategy to invert a matrix is, first, to reduce…

Let the columns of a $p \times q$ matrix $M$ over any ring be partitioned into $n$ blocks, $M = [M_1, ..., M_n]$. If no $p \times p$ submatrix of $M$ with columns from distinct blocks $M_i$ is invertible, then there is an invertible $p…
