A pattern class is a set of permutations closed under the formation of subpermutations. Such classes can be characterised as those permutations not involving a particular set of forbidden permutations. A simple collection of necessary and…

A sign pattern matrix is a matrix whose entries are from the set $\{+,-,0\}$. If $A$ is an $m\times n$ sign pattern matrix, the qualitative class of $A$, denoted $Q(A)$, is the set of all real $m\times n$ matrices $B=[b_{i,j}]$ with…

A square matrix of order n with $n\geq 2$ is called permutative matrix when all its rows (up to the frst one) are permutations of precisely its frst row. In this paper recalling spectral results for partitioned into $2$-by-$2$ symmetric…

A rack on $[n]$ can be thought of as a set of maps $(f_x)_{x \in [n]}$, where each $f_x$ is a permutation of $[n]$ such that $f_{(x)f_y} = f_y^{-1}f_xf_y$ for all $x$ and $y$. In 2013, Blackburn showed that the number of isomorphism classes…

Let $(F,\le)$ be an ordered field and let $A,B$ be square matrices over $F$ of the same size. We say that $A$ and $B$ belong to the same archimedean class if there exists an integer $r$ such that the matrices $r A^T A-B^T B$ and $r B^T…

A generalized Catalan matrix $(a_{n,k})_{n,k\ge 0}$ is generated by two seed sequences $\mathbf{s}=(s_0,s_1,\ldots)$ and $\mathbf{t}=(t_1,t_2,\ldots)$ together with a recurrence relation. By taking $s_\ell=2\ell+1$ and $t_\ell=\ell^2$ we…

Let $n>1$ and $k>0$ be fixed integers. A matrix is said to be level if all its column sums are equal. A level matrix with $m$ rows is called reducible if we can delete $j$ rows, $0<j<m$, so that the remaining matrix is level. We ask if…

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…

A sorting network is a shortest path from $12\dots n$ to $n\dots 21$ in the Cayley graph of the symmetric group $\mathfrak S_n$ spanned by adjacent transpositions. The paper computes the edge local limit of the uniformly random sorting…

Let $A$ be an $n \times M$ matrix whose rows are orthonormal. Let $A_I$ be a submatrix of $A$ whose column indexes belong to the set $I$. Given $\epsilon >0$ we estimate the smallest cardinality of the set $I$, such that the operator $A_I$…

We consider a class of sparse random matrices of the form $A_n =(\xi_{i,j}\delta_{i,j})_{i,j=1}^n$, where $\{\xi_{i,j}\}$ are i.i.d.~centered random variables, and $\{\delta_{i,j}\}$ are i.i.d.~Bernoulli random variables taking value $1$…

It is known that the set of permutations, under the pattern containment ordering, is not a partial well-order. Characterizing the partially well-ordered closed sets (equivalently: down sets or ideals) in this poset remains a wide-open…

$R_+^{n\times n}$ denotes the set of $n\times n$ non-negative matrices. For $A\in R_+^{n\times n}$ let $\Omega(A)$ be the set of all matrices that can be formed by permuting the elements within each row of $A$. Formally: $$\Omega(A)=\{B\in…

An alternating sign matrix is a square matrix satisfying (i) all entries are equal to 1, -1 or 0; (ii) every row and column has sum 1; (iii) in every row and column the non-zero entries alternate in sign. The 8-element group of symmetries…

For positive integers $m$ and $n$, we denote by $\mathrm{BH}(m,n)$ the set of all $H\in M_{n\times n}(\mathbb{C})$ such that $HH^\ast=nI_n$ and each entry of $H$ is an $m$-th root of unity where $H^\ast$ is the adjoint matrix of $H$ and…

We study {\em sign-restricted matrices} (SRMs), a class of rectangular $(0, \pm 1)$-matrices generalizing the alternating sign matrices (ASMs). In an SRM each partial column sum, starting from row 1, equals 0 or 1, and each partial row sum,…

The scalar difference equation $x_{n+1}=f_{n}(x_{n},x_{n-1},...,x_{n-k})$ may exhibit symmetries in its form that allow for reduction of order through substitution or a change of variables. Such form symmetries can be defined generally…

Aronson's sequence 1, 4, 11, 16, ... is defined by the English sentence ``t is the first, fourth, eleventh, sixteenth, ... letter of this sentence.'' This paper introduces some numerical analogues, such as: a(n) is taken to be the smallest…

Any permutation in the finite symmetric group can be written as a product of simple transpositions $s_i = (i~i+1)$. For a fixed permutation $\sigma \in \mathfrak{S}_n$ the products of minimal length are called reduced decompositions or…

The sorting number of a graph with $n$ vertices is the minimum depth of a sorting network with $n$ inputs and outputs that uses only the edges of the graph to perform comparisons. Many known results on sorting networks can be stated in…
