Upper bound on the number of non-zero entries of the product of sparse matrices

Rephrasing: Given matrices $\mathrm A_1 \in \mathbb R^{m \times k}$ and $\mathrm A_2 \in \mathbb R^{k \times n}$, is there an upper bound on the number of nonzero entries of the $m \times n$ matri …

Determining if some permutation of a vector satisfies a system of linear equations

Let $\mathbb P_n$ be the set of $n \times n$ permutation matrices. Given matrix $\mathrm A \in \mathbb R^{m \times n}$ and vector $\mathrm v \in \mathbb R^n$, we would like to find a permutation matri …

Spectral radius of a rank-1 perturbation

Arguably, the simplest case is where the matrix $\bf A$ is symmetric and positive semidefinite (PSD) and ${\bf u} = {\bf v}$, which ensures that the eigenvalues of the rank-$1$ update are in $\Bbb R_0 …

Spectral radius of a rank-1 perturbation

To complement Christian's comment, since the spectral radius is upper-bounded by the spectral norm, $$\begin{aligned} \rho \left( {\bf A} + {\bf u} {\bf v}^\top \right) &\leq \left\| {\bf A} + {\bf u} …

Integral of the entrywise square of the exponential of a matrix

Given a Hurwitz matrix $\mathrm A \in \mathbb R^{n \times n}$, let $$\Phi (t) := \exp(\mathrm A t)$$ be the state transition matrix, and let its $(i,j)$-th entry be denoted by $$\varphi_{ij} (t) := …

Proving that a certain non-symmetric matrix has an eigenvalue with positive real part

Suppose we are given $\mathrm M \in \mathbb R^{n \times n}$. Stating that all the eigenvalues of $\mathrm M$ have strictly negative real parts is equivalent to stating that there is a symmetric positi …
