We show that the mixed discriminant of $n$ positive semidefinite $n \times n$ real symmetric matrices can be approximated within a relative error $\epsilon >0$ in quasi-polynomial $n^{O(\ln n -\ln \epsilon)}$ time, provided the distance of…
One tuple of probability vectors is more informative than another tuple when there exists a single stochastic matrix transforming the probability vectors of the first tuple into the probability vectors of the other. This is called matrix…
We prove that the mixed discriminant of doubly stochastic $n$-tuples of semidefinite hermitian $n \times n$ matrices is bounded below by $\frac{n!}{n^{n}}$ and that this bound is uniquely attained at the $n$-tuple $(\frac{1}{n}…
A $n$-by-$n$ matrix is called totally positive ($TP$) if all its minors are positive and $TP_k$ if all of its $k$-by-$k$ submatrices are $TP$. For an arbitrary totally positive matrix or $TP_k$ matrix, we investigate if the $r$th compound…
We present a simple randomized polynomial time algorithm to approximate the mixed discriminant of $n$ positive semidefinite $n \times n$ matrices within a factor $2^{O(n)}$. Consequently, the algorithm allows us to approximate in randomized…
The alternate row and column scaling algorithm applied to a positive $n\times n$ matrix $A$ converges to a doubly stochastic matrix $S(A)$, sometimes called the \emph{Sinkhorn limit} of $A$. For every positive integer $n$, a two parameter…
We introduce An(1) (n=1,2,...) affine quiver matrix model by simply adopting the extended Cartan matrices as incidence matrices and study its finite N Schwinger-Dyson equations as well as their planar limit. In the case of n=1, we extend…
We investigate the properties of uniform doubly stochastic random matrices, that is non-negative matrices conditioned to have their rows and columns sum to 1. The rescaled marginal distributions are shown to converge to exponential…
An $n \times m$ non-negative matrix with row sum $m$ and column sum $n$ is called doubly stochastic. We answer the problem of finding doubly stochastic matrices of smallest posible support for every $1 <n \leq m$. Any matrix of minimum…
The number of Monotone Triangles with bottom row k1 < k2 < ... < kn is given by a polynomial alpha(n; k1,...,kn) in n variables. The evaluation of this polynomial at weakly decreasing sequences k1 >= k2 >= ... >= kn turns out to be…
We consider the set $\mathcal{M}_n(\mathbb Z; H)$ of $n\times n$-matrices with integer elements of size at most $H$ and obtain a new upper bound on the number of matrices from $\mathcal{M}_n(\mathbb Z; H)$ with a given characteristic…
For a polynomial $P$ of degree $n$ and an $m$-tuple $\Lambda=(\lambda_1,\dots,\lambda_m)$ of distinct complex numbers, the dope matrix of $P$ with respect to $\Lambda$ is $D_P(\Lambda)=(\delta_{ij})_{i\in [1,m],j\in[0,n]}$, where…
We study the problem of list-decodable mean estimation, where an adversary can corrupt a majority of the dataset. Specifically, we are given a set $T$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and a parameter $0< \alpha <\frac 1 2$ such that an…
An $n$-list $\lambda:=\left(r; \lambda_2, \ldots, \lambda_n\right)$ of complex numbers with $r>0,$ is said to be realizable if $\lambda$ is the spectrum of $n\times n$ nonnegative matrix $A$ and in this case $A$ is said to be a nonnegative…
Let K be an algebraic number field of degree d and discriminant D over Q. Let A be an associative algebra over K given by structure constants such that A is isomorphic to the algebra M_n(K) of n by n matrices over K for some positive…
The $2 \rightarrow q$ norm of a matrix $X \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times d}$ is defined as $\lVert X \rVert_{2 \rightarrow q} = \sup_{\lVert v \rVert_2 = 1} \lVert Xv \rVert_q$. We give polynomial-time multiplicative approximation algorithms for…
For a complex polynomial $P$ of degree $n$ and an $m$-tuple of distinct complex numbers $\Lambda=(\lambda_1,\ldots,\lambda_m)$, the dope matrix $D_P(\Lambda)$ is defined as the $m \times (n+1)$ matrix $(c)_{ij}$ with $c_{ij} =1$ if…
Let \( q \) be a prime power and \( n \) an integer. An \( \mathbb{F}_q \)-linearized polynomial \( f \) is said to be scattered if it satisfies the condition that for all \( x, y \in \mathbb{F}_q^n \setminus \{ 0 \} \), whenever \(…
We introduce a new notion of the determinant, called symmetrized determinant, for a square matrix with the entries in an associative algebra $\AA$. The monomial expansion of the symmetrized determinant is obtained from the standard…
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…
