A unified treatment of the theories of matroids with coefficients and of -matroids with coefficients.
This paper deals with additive decompositions of a given matrix , where the ranks of the summands are prescribed and meet certain zero pattern requirements. The latter are formulated in terms of directed bipartite graphs.
For a sequence x ∈ ℓ₁∖c₀₀, one can consider the set E(x) of all subsums of the series . Guthrie and Nymann proved that E(x) is one of the following types of sets: () a finite union of closed intervals; () homeomorphic to the Cantor set; homeomorphic to the set T of subsums of where b(2n-1) = 3/4ⁿ and b(2n) = 2/4ⁿ. Denote by ℐ, and the sets of all sequences x ∈ ℓ₁∖c₀₀ such that E(x) has the property (ℐ), () and ( ), respectively. We show that ℐ and are strongly -algebrable and is -lineable. We...
Compositional data, multivariate observations that hold only relative information, need a special treatment while performing statistical analysis, with respect to the simplex as their sample space ([Aitchison, J.: The Statistical Analysis of Compositional Data. Chapman and Hall, London, 1986.], [Aitchison, J., Greenacre, M.: Biplots of compositional data. Applied Statistics 51 (2002), 375–392.], [Buccianti, A., Mateu-Figueras, G., Pawlowsky-Glahn, V.
