How to prove that each element of $A(A^TA)^{-1}A^Ty$ is greater than 0, if $A(i,j)>0$ and $y=[1, 1, 1, ..., 1]^T$
Let $A\in \mathbb{R}^{m\times n}$, $m>n$, $rank(A)=n$, and $\forall 1 \leq i \leq m, 1 \leq j \leq n, A(i, j)>0$, $y=[1, 1, 1, ..., 1]^T$. Let $\beta=A(A^TA)^{-1}A^Ty$, how to prove that each ...

Can an orthogonal matrix move monotonically toward a signed permutation matrix?
The question is motivated by this question on Mathematics SE.
Let $A \in O(n)$ be an orthogonal matrix that is not a signed permutation matrix, and let $P$ be the nearest signed permutation matrix to $...

Singular value decomposition of a low rank weak diagonally dominant M-matrix. When is the unitary polar matrix positive semi-definite?
Let $A$ be an $n \times n$, non-symmetric, real, weak diagonally dominant M-Matrix. Its diagonal is strictly positive, its off-diagonal is negative or zero and all its columns sum to zero. $A$ has ...

Bounding the non-multiplicativity of isometric projection
Every $A \in \text{GL}_n(\mathbb{R})$ has a unique Polar decomposition:
$A=O_AP_A$, $O \in \operatorname{O}_n, P \in \operatorname{Psym}_n$.
In particular the orthogonal factor is given by $$O_A=A(\...
