Preconditioner for finding the smallest eigenpairs of a large, but structured, matrix
I'm trying to find the eigenvector corresponding to the second smallest eigenvalue of a large $(4,000,000 \times 4,000,000)$ matrix $L$. $L$ is a graph Laplacian, with the following structure: $L = D -...

Convergence of the relaxation method for every parameter in the relevant disk
For large size matrices, the resolution of linear systems $Ax=b$ is often done iteratively. The matrix $A$ is split as $A=M-N$, with $M$ invertible, and one performs
$$x^{k+1}=M^{-1}(Nx^k+b).$$
The ...

How to find moment condition for generalized method of moments?
Consider a scalar system with $2K$ outputs and $K+2$ unknowns:
$y_{k,1}=x_ka_1+n_{k,1} \quad y_{k,2}=x_ka_2+n_{k,1}$.
The variables $n_{k,\ell}$ are zero mean noise variables.
To estimate $a_1$ and $...

subspace separation and M-matrices
The separation between two square matrices $A$ and $B$, often used as a measure of the sensitivity of invariant subspace problems, is defined as
$$
\operatorname{sep}(A,B)=\min_{X\neq 0}\frac{\left\...

Vandermonde-type factorization of moment matrix?
Consider $n,d \in \mathbb{N}_{>0}$, there are many functions $y:\mathbb{N}^{n} \to \mathbb{R}$. Now for simplicity, we denote $y(\alpha)$ to be $y_{\alpha}$. Let $|\alpha| = \sum_{i=1}^{n}\alpha_{i}...

Smallest eigenvalue for large kernel matrix
I am interested in the the asymptotics of the minimum eigenvalue $\lambda_n^n$ of a class of kernel matrix $P = [ K(x_i - x_j) ]_{i,j}$, with $x_i$ equally spaced in the unit cube of $\mathbb{R}^d$.

Negative eigenvalue of Toeplitz Hermitian matrix?
I am working on estimation of a covariance matrix and I know that the matrix is Toeplitz. The desired matrix should not produce negative eigenvalues at all. However, sometime my estimation leads to a ...

Covariance matrix formula interpretation - what am I missing?
I'm reading a paper that outlines the calculation of a covariance matrix like the following:
$C=\displaystyle\sum^{N_b}_{i=1}\vec{x}_i\vec{x}_i^T$
What is the order of this matrix? My interpretation ...

Bits of precision matrix reconstruction
We have a real rank $r$ matrix $M\in\{0,1\}^{n\times n}$.
Suppose we have diagonalized using $LMR=D$.
I want to recover a real matrix $\widetilde{M}$ such that maximum absolute entry of $\widetilde{...
