On the automorphisms of the spectral unit ball

Jérémie Rostand (2003)

Studia Mathematica

Let Ω be the spectral unit ball of Mₙ(ℂ), that is, the set of n × n matrices with spectral radius less than 1. We are interested in classifying the automorphisms of Ω. We know that it is enough to consider the normalized automorphisms of Ω, that is, the automorphisms F satisfying F(0) = 0 and F'(0) = I, where I is the identity map on Mₙ(ℂ). The known normalized automorphisms are conjugations. Is every normalized automorphism a conjugation? We show that locally, in a neighborhood of a matrix with...

On the binary system of factors of formal matrix rings

Weining Chen, Guixin Deng, Huadong Su (2020)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We investigate the formal matrix ring over R defined by a certain system of factors. We give a method for constructing formal matrix rings from non-negative integer matrices. We also show that the principal factor matrix of a binary system of factors determine the structure of the system.

On the bounds of Laplacian eigenvalues of k -connected graphs

Xiaodan Chen, Yaoping Hou (2015)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Let μ n - 1 ( G ) be the algebraic connectivity, and let μ 1 ( G ) be the Laplacian spectral radius of a k -connected graph G with n vertices and m edges. In this paper, we prove that μ n - 1 ( G ) 2 n k 2 ( n ( n - 1 ) - 2 m ) ( n + k - 2 ) + 2 k 2 , with equality if and only if G is the complete graph K n or K n - e . Moreover, if G is non-regular, then μ 1 ( G ) < 2 Δ - 2 ( n Δ - 2 m ) k 2 2 ( n Δ - 2 m ) ( n 2 - 2 n + 2 k ) + n k 2 , where Δ stands for the maximum degree of G . Remark that in some cases, these two inequalities improve some previously known results.

On the cardinality of complex matrix scalings

George Hutchinson (2016)

Special Matrices

We disprove a conjecture made by Rajesh Pereira and Joanna Boneng regarding the upper bound on the number of doubly quasi-stochastic scalings of an n × n positive definite matrix. In doing so, we arrive at the true upper bound for 3 × 3 real matrices, and demonstrate that there is no such bound when n ≥ 4.
