A set of matrices is said to have the finiteness property if the maximal rate of exponential growth of long products of matrices drawn from that set is realised by a periodic product. The extent to which the finiteness property is prevalent…

The joint spectral radius of a bounded set of d times d real or complex matrices is defined to be the maximum exponential rate of growth of products of matrices drawn from that set. A set of matrices is said to satisfy the finiteness…

The joint spectral radius of a finite set of real $d \times d$ matrices is defined to be the maximum possible exponential rate of growth of long products of matrices drawn from that set. A set of matrices is said to have the…

In the paper, a simple condition guaranteing the finiteness property for a bounded set of matrices is presented. Given a bounded set S of real or complex matrices, it is shown that existence of a sequence of matrix products such that the…

We look at spaces of infinite-by-infinite matrices, and consider closed subsets that are stable under simultaneous row and column operations. We prove that up to symmetry, any of these closed subsets is defined by finitely many equations.

Let $A$ be an $n \times n$ matrix with rational entries and let \[ \mathbb{Z}^n[A] := \bigcup_{k=1}^{\infty} \left( \mathbb{Z}^n + A\mathbb{Z}^n + \dots + A^{k-1}\mathbb{Z}^n\right) \] be the minimal $A$-invariant $\mathbb{Z}$-module…

We formulate conjectures regarding the maximum value and maximizing matrices of the permanent and of diagonal products on the set of stochastic matrices with bounded rank. We formulate equivalent conjectures on upper bounds for these…

Recently Blondel, Nesterov and Protasov proved that the finiteness conjecture holds for the generalized and the lower spectral radii of the sets of non-negative matrices with independent row/column uncertainty. We show that this result can…

Let $n$ be a positive integer and $\mathcal M$ a set of rational $n \times n$-matrices such that $\mathcal M$ generates a finite multiplicative semigroup. We show that any matrix in the semigroup is a product of matrices in $\mathcal M$…

We analyze the asymptotic convergence of all infinite products of matrices taken in a given finite set, by looking only at finite or periodic products. It is known that when the matrices of the set have a common nonincreasing polyhedral…

A nonnegative matrix $A$ is called primitive if $A^k$ is positive for some integer $k>0$. A generalization of this concept to finite sets of matrices is as follows: a set of matrices $\mathcal M = \{A_1, A_2, \ldots, A_m \}$ is primitive if…

The notion of non-deterministic logical matrix (where connectives are interpreted as multi-functions) preserves many good properties of traditional semantics based on logical matrices (where connectives are interpreted as functions) whilst…

We show that for any positive integer $d$, there are families of switched linear systems---in fixed dimension and defined by two matrices only---that are stable under arbitrary switching but do not admit (i) a polynomial Lyapunov function…

We consider the question of the boundedness of matrix products $A_{n}B_{n}\cdots A_{1}B_{1}$ with factors from two sets of matrices, $A_{i}\in\mathscr{A}$ and $B_{i}\in\mathscr{B}$, due to an appropriate choice of matrices $\{B_{i}\}$. It…

Let A,B be matrices in SL(2,R) having trace greater than or equal to 2. Assume the pair A,B is coherently oriented, that is, can be conjugated to a pair having nonnegative entries. Assume also that either A,B^(-1) is coherently oriented as…

In this note, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for a matrix A in M to be finitely G-determined, where M is the ring of 2 x 2 matrices whose entries are formal power series over an infinite field, and G is a group acting on M by…

In this article we consider the maximum possible growth rate of sequences of long products of $d \times d$ matrices all of which are drawn from some specified compact set which has been normalised so as to have joint spectral radius equal…

We study the finite-step realizability of the joint/generalized spectral radius of a pair of real $d\times d$ matrices, one of which has rank 1. Then we prove that there always exists a finite-length word for which there holds the spectral…

Let $\mathbb{K}$ be a finite commutative ring, and let $\mathbb{L}$ be a commutative $\mathbb{K}$-algebra. Let $A$ and $B$ be two $n \times n$-matrices over $\mathbb{L}$ that have the same characteristic polynomial. The main result of this…

The authors and Fischer recently proved that any hereditary property of two-dimensional matrices (where the row and column order is not ignored) over a finite alphabet is testable with a constant number of queries, by establishing the…
