A real matrix is said to be positive if its every entry is positive, and a real square matrix A is algebraically positive if there exists a real polynomial f such that f(A) is a positive matrix. A sign pattern matrix A is said to require a…

We study the spectra of non-regular semisimple elements in irreducible representations of simple algebraic groups. More precisely, we prove that if G is a simply connected simple linear algebraic group and f is a non-trivial irreducible…

In this paper using a transform defined by the translation operator we introduce the concept of spectrum of sequences that are bounded by $n^\nu$, where $\nu$ is a natural number. We apply this spectral theory to study the asymptotic…

We initiate a study of sign patterns that require or allow the non-symmetric strong multiplicity property (nSMP). We show that all cycle patterns require the nSMP, regardless of the number of nonzero diagonal entries. We present a class of…

Existence of a spectral singularity (SS) in the spectrum of {a Schr\"{o}dinger operator with} a non-Hermitian potential requires exact matching of parameters of the potential. We provide a necessary and sufficient condition for a potential…

In this paper we characterize invertible matrices over an arbitrary commutative antiring S and find the structure of GL_n (S). We find the number of nilpotent matrices over an entire commutative finite antiring. We prove that every…

A new way of encoding a non-self-adjoint Jacobi matrix $J$ by a spectral measure of $|J|$ together with a phase function was described by Pushnitski--\v Stampach in the bounded case. We present another perspective on this correspondence,…

We consider spectra of $n$-by-$n$ irreducible tridiagonal matrices over a field and of their $n-1$-by-$n-1$ trailing principal submatrices. The real symmetric and complex Hermitian cases have been fully understood: it is necessary and…

In this paper we report on new results relating to a conjecture regarding properties of $n\times n$, $n\leq 6$, positive definite matrices. The conjecture has been proven for $n\leq 4$ using computer-assisted sum of squares (SoS) methods…

For a fixed quadratic polynomial $\mathfrak{p}$ in $n$ non-commuting variables, and $n$ independent $N\times N$ complex Ginibre matrices $X_1^N,\dots, X_n^N$, we establish the convergence of the empirical spectral distribution of $P^N…

The nonnegative inverse eigenvalue problem (NIEP) is to characterize the spectra of entrywise nonnegative matrices. A finite multiset of complex numbers is called realizable if it is the spectrum of an entrywise nonnegative matrix. Monov…

Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a field. We show that given any $n$th degree monic polynomial $q(x)\in \mathbb{F}[x]$ and any matrix $A\in\mathbb{M}_n(\mathbb{F})$ whose trace coincides with the trace of $q(x)$ and consisting in its main diagonal of…

A matrix $A$ is totally positive (or non-negative) of order $k$, denoted $TP_k$ (or $TN_k$), if all minors of size $\leq k$ are positive (or non-negative). It is well-known that such matrices are characterized by the variation diminishing…

We consider systems of strict multivariate polynomial inequalities over the reals. All polynomial coefficients are parameters ranging over the reals, where for each coefficient we prescribe its sign. We are interested in the existence of…

The rank of the $9\times 9$ matrix $$ \left( \begin{array}{cccc|c|cccc} 1&1&0&0&1&0&0&0&0\\ 1&1&0&0&0&0&0&0&0\\ 0&0&1&1&1&0&0&0&0\\ 0&0&1&1&0&0&0&0&0\\\hline 0&0&0&0&1&0&1&0&1\\\hline 0&0&0&0&0&1&1&0&0\\ 0&0&0&0&0&1&1&0&0\\…

A matrix is called strictly sign-regular of order $k$ (denoted by $SSR_k$) if all its $k\times k$ minors are non-zero and have the same sign. For example, totally positive matrices, i.e., matrices with all minors positive, are $SSR_k$ for…

Let $S$ be an additively idempotent semiring and $\mathbf{M}_n(S)$ be the semiring of all $n\times n$ matrices over $S$. We characterize the conditions of when the semiring $\mathbf{M}_n(S)$ is congruence-simple provided that the semiring…

A subspace of the space, L(n), of traceless complex $n\times n$ matrices can be specified by requiring that the entries at some positions $(i,j)$ be zero. The set, $I$, of these positions is a (zero) pattern and the corresponding subspace…

We give a simple proof of the matrix Spencer conjecture up to poly-logarithmic rank: given symmetric $d \times d$ matrices $A_1,\ldots,A_n$ each with $\|A_i\|_{\mathsf{op}} \leq 1$ and rank at most $n/\log^3 n$, one can efficiently find…

Matrix inequalities play a pivotal role in mathematics, generalizing scalar inequalities and providing insights into linear operator structures. However, the widely used L\"owner ordering, which relies on real-valued eigenvalues, is limited…
