In general, A ≥ B means that each aij ≥ bij. Similarly, A is a positive matrix when each aij > 0, and this is denoted by writing A > 0. More generally, A > B means that each aij >bij. Applications abound with nonnegative and positive matrices. In fact, many of the applications considered in this text involve nonnegative matrices. For example, the connectivity matrix C in Example 3.5.2 (p. 100) is nonnegative. The discrete Laplacian L from Example 7.6.2 (p. 563) leads to a nonnegative matrix because (4I − L) ≥ 0. The matrix eAt that defines the solution of the system of differential equations in the mixing problem of Example 7.9.7 (p. 610) is nonnegative for all t ≥ 0. And the system of difference equations p(k)=Ap(k − 1) resulting from the shell game of Example 7.10.8 (p. 635) has Please report violations to [email protected] a nonnegativeCOPYRIGHTED coefficient matrix A. Since nonnegative matrices are pervasive, it’s natural to investigate their properties, and that’s the purpose of this chapter. A primary issue concerns It is illegal to print, duplicate, or distribute this material the extent to which the properties A > 0 or A ≥ 0 translate to spectral properties—e.g., to what extent does A have positive (or nonnegative) eigen- values and eigenvectors?

  • On Computing Longest Paths in Small Graph Classes
    On Computing Longest Paths in Small Graph Classes Ryuhei Uehara∗ Yushi Uno† July 28, 2005 Abstract The longest path problem is to find a longest path in a given graph. While the graph classes in which the Hamiltonian path problem can be solved efficiently are widely investigated, few graph classes are known to be solved efficiently for the longest path problem. For a tree, a simple linear time algorithm for the longest path problem is known. We first generalize the algorithm, and show that the longest path problem can be solved efficiently for weighted trees, block graphs, and cacti. We next show that the longest path problem can be solved efficiently on some graph classes that have natural interval representations. Keywords: efficient algorithms, graph classes, longest path problem. 1 Introduction The Hamiltonian path problem is one of the most well known NP-hard problem, and there are numerous applications of the problems [17]. For such an intractable problem, there are two major approaches; approximation algorithms [20, 2, 35] and algorithms with parameterized complexity analyses [15]. In both approaches, we have to change the decision problem to the optimization problem. Therefore the longest path problem is one of the basic problems from the viewpoint of combinatorial optimization. From the practical point of view, it is also very natural approach to try to find a longest path in a given graph, even if it does not have a Hamiltonian path. However, finding a longest path seems to be more difficult than determining whether the given graph has a Hamiltonian path or not.

A list of such structures is presented. Although structures with Pascal’s triangles modulo n are preferred a little, an e,ort was made to collect as many simply formulated results as possible. c 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved. MSC: primary 03B10; 03C07; secondary 11B65; 11U07 Keywords: Elementary deÿnability; Pascal’s triangle modulo n; Arithmetical structures; Undecid- able theories 1. Introduction A list of (arithmetical) structures complete with respect of the ÿrst-order deÿnability power (shortly: def-complete structures) will be presented. (The term “def-strongest” was used in the previous versions.) Most of them have the base set N but also structures with some other universes are considered. (Formal deÿnitions are given below.) The class of arithmetical structures can be quasi-ordered by ÿrst-order deÿnability power. After the usual factorization we obtain a partially ordered set, and def-complete struc- tures will form its greatest element. Of course, there are stronger structures (with respect to the ÿrst-order deÿnability) outside of the class of arithmetical structures.

The celebrated result of Lewis and Yan- nakakis gives a complete dichotomy of their complexity. It however has nothing to say about the case when the input graph is also special. This paper initiates a systematic study of vertex deletion problems from one subclass of chordal graphs to another. We give polynomial-time algorithms or proofs of NP-completeness for most of the problems. In particular, we show that the vertex deletion problem from chordal graphs to interval graphs is NP-complete. 1998 ACM Subject Classification F.2.2 Analysis of Algorithms and Problem Complexity, G.2.2 Graph Theory Keywords and phrases vertex deletion problem, maximum subgraph, chordal graph, (unit) in- terval graph, split graph, hereditary property, NP-complete, polynomial-time algorithm Digital Object Identifier 10.4230/LIPIcs.FSTTCS.2017.22 1 Introduction Generally speaking, a vertex deletion problem asks to transform an input graph to a graph in a certain class by deleting a minimum number of vertices.

  • Fast Singular Value Thresholding Without Singular Value Decomposition∗
    METHODS AND APPLICATIONS OF ANALYSIS. c 2013 International Press Vol. 20, No. 4, pp. 335–352, December 2013 002 FAST SINGULAR VALUE THRESHOLDING WITHOUT SINGULAR VALUE DECOMPOSITION∗ JIAN-FENG CAI† AND STANLEY OSHER‡ Abstract. Singular value thresholding (SVT) is a basic subroutine in many popular numerical schemes for solving nuclear norm minimization that arises from low-rank matrix recovery prob- lems such as matrix completion. The conventional approach for SVT is first to find the singular value decomposition (SVD) and then to shrink the singular values. However, such an approach is time-consuming under some circumstances, especially when the rank of the resulting matrix is not significantly low compared to its dimension. In this paper, we propose a fast algorithm for directly computing SVT for general dense matrices without using SVDs. Our algorithm is based on matrix Newton iteration for matrix functions, and the convergence is theoretically guaranteed. Numerical experiments show that our proposed algorithm is more efficient than the SVD-based approaches for general dense matrices. Key words. Low rank matrix, nuclear norm minimization, matrix Newton iteration. AMS subject classifications. 65F30, 65K99. 1. Introduction. Singular value thresholding (SVT) introduced in [7] is a key subroutine in many popular numerical schemes (e.g. [7, 12, 13, 52, 54, 66]) for solving nuclear norm minimization that arises from low-rank matrix recovery problems such as matrix completion [13–15,60]. Let Y Rm×n be a given matrix, and Y = UΣV T be its singular value decomposition (SVD),∈ where U and V are orthonormal matrices and Σ = diag(σ1, σ2,...,σs) is the diagonal matrix with diagonals being the singular values of Y .

  • The Infinite and Contradiction: a History of Mathematical Physics By
    The infinite and contradiction: A history of mathematical physics by dialectical approach Ichiro Ueki January 18, 2021 Abstract The following hypothesis is proposed: \In mathematics, the contradiction involved in the de- velopment of human knowledge is included in the form of the infinite.” To prove this hypothesis, the author tries to find what sorts of the infinite in mathematics were used to represent the con- tradictions involved in some revolutions in mathematical physics, and concludes \the contradiction involved in mathematical description of motion was represented with the infinite within recursive (computable) set level by early Newtonian mechanics; and then the contradiction to describe discon- tinuous phenomena with continuous functions and contradictions about \ether" were represented with the infinite higher than the recursive set level, namely of arithmetical set level in second or- der arithmetic (ordinary mathematics), by mechanics of continuous bodies and field theory; and subsequently the contradiction appeared in macroscopic physics applied to microscopic phenomena were represented with the further higher infinite in third or higher order arithmetic (set-theoretic mathematics), by quantum mechanics". 1 Introduction Contradictions found in set theory from the end of the 19th century to the beginning of the 20th, gave a shock called \a crisis of mathematics" to the world of mathematicians. One of the contradictions was reported by B. Russel: \Let w be the class [set]1 of all classes which are not members of themselves. Then whatever class x may be, 'x is a w' is equivalent to 'x is not an x'. Hence, giving to x the value w, 'w is a w' is equivalent to 'w is not a w'."[52] Russel described the crisis in 1959: I was led to this contradiction by Cantor's proof that there is no greatest cardinal number.

  • Minimally Separating Sets, Mediatrices, and Brillouin Spaces
    MINIMALLY SEPARATING SETS, MEDIATRICES, AND BRILLOUIN SPACES J.J.P. VEERMAN AND JAMES BERNHARD Abstract. Brillouin zones and their boundaries were studied in [16] because they play an important role in focal decomposition as first defined by Peixoto in [9] and in physics ([1] and [3]). In so-called Brillouin spaces, the boundaries of the Brillouin zones have certain regularity properties which imply that they consist of pieces of mediatrices (or equidistant sets). The purpose of this note is two-fold. First, we give some simple conditions on a metric space which are sufficient for it to be a Brillouin space. These con- ditions show, for example, that all compact, connected Riemannian manifolds with their usual distance functions are Brillouin spaces. Second, we exhibit a restriction on the Z2-homology of mediatrices in such manifolds in terms of the Z2-homology of the manifolds themselves, based on the fact that they are Bril- louin spaces. (This will used to obtain a classification up to homeomorphim of surface mediatrices in [15]). This note begins with some preliminaries in Section 1, where we define the relevant concepts and provide some background and motivation for the questions being considered here. In Section 2, we list a simple set of conditions on a metric space and prove that these conditions suffice for it to be a Brillouin space. In Section 3, we give some examples and mention a result for use in a later paper. We then investigate in Section 4 the homological restrictions placed on a mediatrix by the topology of the surrounding Brillouin space.
