Existence of sparse LU decomposition of sparse matrix

Let $A$ be a sparse matrix over some field. I would like to know about the existence of LU decompositions so that $L,U$ are both sparse. More precisely, let $A$ be an $N$-by-$N$ matrix. Suppose each ...

Can I find the gap between the two least eigenvalues of this special matrix A(t)?‎

I am interested in finding the gap between the two least eigenvalues of $A(t)$, a Hermitian $N\times N$ sparse ‎matrix whose diagonal elements are $a_it+b_i\,(1\leq i\leq N)$, and all off-diagonal non-...

Exponential of large matrices

I want to make a diffusion kernel, which involves $e^{\beta A}$, where A is a large matrix (25k by 25k). It is an adjacency matrix, so it's symmetric and very sparse. Does anyone have a ...
