The aim of this article is to provide a simple sampling procedure to reconstruct any monotone path from its signature. For every N, we sample a lattice path of N steps with weights given by the coefficient of the corresponding word in the…
In [V. M. Abramov, \emph{Bull. Aust. Math. Soc.} \textbf{104} (2021), 108--117] the fixed point equation for an infinite nonnegative Toeplitz matrix has been studied. It was found the conditions for existence of a positive solution and…
Inspired by the work of Borwein and Erdelyi \cite{BE1997JAMS} on generalizations of M\"{u}ntz's theorem, we investigate the properties of the system $\{x^{\lambda_n}\}_{n=1}^{\infty}$ in weighted $L^p (A)$ spaces, for $p\ge 1$, denoted by…
A lattice path in $\mathbb{Z}^d$ is a sequence $\nu_1,\nu_2,\ldots,\nu_k\in\mathbb{Z}^d$ such that the steps $\nu_i-\nu_{i-1}$ lie in a subset $\mathbf{S}$ of $\mathbb{Z}^d$ for all $i=2,\ldots,k$. Let $T_{m,n}$ be the $m\times n$ table in…
We define a notion of {\it positive part} of a lattice $\Lambda$ and we endow the set of such positive parts with a topology. We then study some properties of this topology, by comparing it with the one of $V^*/\RM_{> 0}$, where $V^*$ is…
Recently, several authors have considered lattice paths with various steps, including vertical steps permitted. In this paper, we consider a kind of generalized Motzkin paths, called {\it G-Motzkin paths} for short, that is lattice paths…
The normalized totally positive bases are widely used in many fields.Based on the generalized Vandermonde determinant, the normalized total positivity of a kind of generalized toric-Bernstein basis is proved, which is defined on a set of…
The paper is concerned with various types of noncommutative Positivstellens\"atze for the matrix algebra $M_n(\cA)$, where $\cA$ is an algebra of operators acting on a unitary space, a path algebra, a cyclic algebra or a formally real…
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…
In this paper we give a matrix version of Handelman's Positivstellensatz [1], representing polynomial matrices which are positive definite on convex, compact polyhedra. Moreover, we propose also a procedure to find such a representation. As…
We prove a new family of total positivity criteria for partial flag varieties for simply-connected complex algebraic group in the simply laced case.
Many combinatorial matrices --- such as those of binomial coefficients, Stirling numbers of both kinds, and Lah numbers --- are known to be totally non-negative, meaning that all minors (determinants of square submatrices) are non-negative.…
A new proof is presented of a theorem of L.~Gurvits, which states that the cone of positive block-Toeplitz matrices with matrix entries has no entangled elements. The proof of the Gurvits separation theorem is achieved by making use of the…
Let G be a torus and M a G-Hamiltonian manifold with Kostant line bundle L and proper moment map. Let P be the weight lattice of G. We consider a parameter k and the multiplicity $m(\lambda,k)$ of the quantized representation associated to…
We give a combinatorial interpretation of a matrix identity on Catalan numbers and the sequence $(1, 4, 4^2, 4^3, ...)$ which has been derived by Shapiro, Woan and Getu by using Riordan arrays. By giving a bijection between weighted partial…
We further pursue an approach to the sign problem of quantum chromodynamics at nonzero chemical potential, in which configurations of the lattice path integral are gathered into subsets. In the subset construction we multiply each temporal…
In this paper the total positivity of quasi-Riordan arrays is investigated with use of the sequence characterization of quasi-Riordan arrays. Due to the correlation between quasi-Riordan arrays and Riordan arrays, this study is an in-depth…
Models that provide experimentally testable violations of ordinary Quantum Mechanics have been recently proposed. These models are based on non-unitary time evolutions of density matrices that are generated by linear positive maps. We…
We analyse weighted Motzkin paths with step multiplicities that vary linearly with height. In the balanced case the associated exponential generating function satisfies a Pearson-type PDE, and solving by characteristics yields closed…
Given $d \ge 1$, let $(A_i)_{i\ge 1}$ be a sequence of random $d\times d$ real matrices and $Q$ be a random vector in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We consider fixed points of multivariate smoothing transforms, i.e. random variables $X\in \mathbb{R}^d$…
