Consider the set of scalars $\alpha$ for which the $\alpha$th Hadamard power of any $n\times n$ positive semi-definite (p.s.d.) matrix with non-negative entries is p.s.d. It is known that this set is of the form $\{0, 1, \dots, n-3\}\cup…
Positivity properties of the Hadamard powers of the matrix $\begin{bmatrix}1+x_ix_j\end{bmatrix}$ for distinct positive real numbers $x_1,\ldots,x_n$ and the matrix $\begin{bmatrix}|\cos((i-j)\pi/n)|\end{bmatrix}$ are studied. In…
A classical theorem proved in 1942 by I.J. Schoenberg describes all real-valued functions that preserve positivity when applied entrywise to positive semidefinite matrices of arbitrary size; such functions are necessarily analytic with…
In previous work [Adv. Math. 298, pp. 325-368, 2016], the structure of the simultaneous kernels of Hadamard powers of any positive semidefinite matrix were described. Key ingredients in the proof included a novel stratification of the cone…
We study ranks of the $r\textrm{th}$ Hadamard powers of doubly nonnegative matrices and show that the matrix $A^{\circ r}$ is positive definite for every $n\times n$ doubly nonnegative matrix $A$ and for every $r>n-2$ if and only if no…
A famous result of Horn and Fitzgerald is that the $\beta$-th Hadamard power of any $n\times n$ positive semi-definite (p.s.d) matrix with non-negative entries is p.s.d $\forall \beta\geq n-2$ and is not necessarliy p.s.d for $\beta< n-2,$…
Entrywise powers of matrices have been well-studied in the literature, and have recently received renewed attention in the regularization of high-dimensional correlation matrices. In this paper, we study powers of positive semidefinite…
We show that, for Hankel matrices, total nonnegativity (resp. total positivity) of order r is preserved by sum, Hadamard product, and Hadamard power with real exponent t \ge r-2. We give examples to show that our results are sharp relative…
We provide a decomposition that is sufficient in showing when a symmetric tridiagonal matrix $A$ is completely positive. Our decomposition can be applied to a wide range of matrices. We give alternate proofs for a number of related results…
Entrywise powers of symmetric matrices preserving positivity, monotonicity or convexity with respect to the Loewner ordering arise in various applications, and have received much attention recently in the literature. Following FitzGerald…
A real symmetric matrix $M$ is completely positive semidefinite if it admits a Gram representation by (Hermitian) positive semidefinite matrices of any size $d$. The smallest such $d$ is called the (complex) completely positive semidefinite…
In this work we investigate special aspects of positivity preservers and especially diagonal positivity preservers, i.e., linear maps $T:\mathbb{R}[x_1,\dots,x_n]\to\mathbb{R}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ such that $Tx^\alpha = t_\alpha x^\alpha$ holds…
The matrix $S = [1+x_i y_j]_{i,j=1}^{n}, 0<x_1<\cdots<x_n,\, 0<y_1<\cdots<y_n$, has gained importance lately due to its role in powers preserving total nonnegativity. We give an explicit decomposition of $S$ in terms of elementary…
The study of entrywise powers of matrices was originated by Loewner in the pursuit of the Bieberbach conjecture. Since the work of FitzGerald and Horn (1977), it is known that $A^{\circ \alpha} := (a_{ij}^\alpha)$ is positive semidefinite…
A surprising result of FitzGerald and Horn (1977) shows that $A^{\circ \alpha} := (a_{ij}^\alpha)$ is positive semidefinite (p.s.d.) for every entrywise nonnegative $n \times n$ p.s.d. matrix $A = (a_{ij})$ if and only if $\alpha$ is a…
In this paper, we obtain some new matrix inequalities involving Hadamard product. Also some Hadamard product inequalities for accretive matrices involving the matrix means, positive unital linear maps and matrix concave functions are…
Positive semidefinite Hermitian matrices that are not fully specified can be completed provided their underlying graph is chordal. If the matrix is positive definite the completion can be uniquely characterized as the matrix that maximizes…
In this paper, we show that even order Pascal tensors are positive definite, and odd order Pascal tensors are strongly completely positive. The significance of these is that our induction proof method also holds for some other families of…
This paper serves as an introduction to banded totally positive matrices, exploring various characterizations and associated properties. A significant result within is the demonstration that the collection of such matrices forms a…
We present a symbolic decomposition of the Pearson chi-square statistic with unequal cell probabilities, by presenting Hadamard-type matrices whose columns are eigenvectors of the variance-covariance matrix of the cell counts. All of the…
