An Inequality for Matrices
Fractional positive asymptotically stable continuous-time linear systems are approximated by fractional positive asymptotically stable discrete-time systems using a linear Padé-type approximation. It is shown that the approximation preserves the positivity and asymptotic stability of the systems. An optional system approximation is also discussed.
In this paper, we consider the Z-eigenpair of a tensor. A lower bound and an upper bound for the Z-spectral radius of a weakly symmetric nonnegative irreducible tensor are presented. Furthermore, upper bounds of Z-spectral radius of nonnegative tensors and general tensors are given. The proposed bounds improve some existing ones. Numerical examples are reported to show the effectiveness of the proposed bounds.
Let be an symmetric, irreducible, and nonnegative matrix whose eigenvalues are . In this paper we derive several lower and upper bounds, in particular on and , but also, indirectly, on . The bounds are in terms of the diagonal entries of the group generalized inverse, , of the singular and irreducible M-matrix . Our starting point is a spectral resolution for . We consider the case of equality in some of these inequalities and we apply our results to the algebraic connectivity of undirected...
Felsenstein's classical model for Gaussian distributions on a phylogenetic tree is shown to be a toric variety in the space of concentration matrices. We present an exact semialgebraic characterization of this model, and we demonstrate how the toric structure leads to exact methods for maximum likelihood estimation. Our results also give new insights into the geometry of ultrametric matrices.
This paper deals with some properties of α1-matrices and α2-matrices which are subclasses of nonsingular H-matrices. In particular, new characterizations of these two subclasses are given, and then used for proving algebraic properties related to subdirect sums and Hadamard products.
This paper extends some properties of the generalized complementary basic matrices, in particular, in a combinatorial direction. These include inheritance (such as for Alternating Sign Matrices), spectral, and sign pattern matrix (including sign nonsingularity) properties.
Drew, Johnson and Loewy conjectured that for n ≥ 4, the CP-rank of every n × n completely positive real matrix is at most [n2/4]. In this paper, we prove this conjecture for n × n completely positive matrices over Boolean algebras (finite or infinite). In addition,we formulate various CP-rank inequalities of completely positive matrices over special semirings using semiring homomorphisms.
