Non-synchronous oscillations in four-dimensional nonlinear semelparous Leslie matrix models

In a certain class of semelparous Leslie matrix models, either a positive equilibrium is stable and an invariant set on the boundary of the nonnegative cone is unstable or vice versa generically if the model dimension is two or three. This dynamic dichotomy is expected to be failed in the four-dimensional case. Our study focuses on a semelparous Leslie matrix model with specific nonlinearities and rigorously proves that the dynamic dichotomy does not hold in the four-dimensional case. This result is derived by showing that the four-dimensional semelparous Leslie matrix model can be uniformly persistent with respect to the boundary of the nonnegative cone even if there exists an unstable positive equilibrium. In such a situation, there are no missing age-classes but population oscillation occurs.

An analysis on the efficiency of Euler's method for computing the matrix pth root

It is shown that the matrix sequence generated by Euler's method starting from the identity matrix converges to the principal pth root of a square matrix, if all the eigenvalues of the matrix are in a region including the one for Newton's method given by Guo in 2010. The convergence is cubic if the matrix is invertible. A modification version of Euler's method using the Schur decomposition is developed. Numerical experiments show that the modified algorithm has the overall good numerical behavior.     

Low rank matrix recovery from rank one measurements

We study the recovery of Hermitian low rank matrices $X\in {\mathbb{C}}^{n\times n}$ from undersampled measurements via nuclear norm minimization. We consider the particular scenario where the measurements are Frobenius inner products with random rank-one matrices of the form $a_j{a}_j^{?}$ for some measurement vectors $a_1,\dots ,a_m$, i.e., the measurements are given by $b_j=\mathrm{tr}(X{a}_j{a}_j^{?})$. The case where the matrix $X=x{x}^{?}$ to be recovered is of rank one reduces to the problem of phaseless estimation (from measurements $b_j=|〈x,a_j〉{|}^2$) via the PhaseLift approach, which has been introduced recently. We derive bounds for the number m of measurements that guarantee successful uniform recovery of Hermitian rank r matrices, either for the vectors $a_j$, $j=1,\dots ,m$, being chosen independently at random according to a standard Gaussian distribution, or $a_j$ being sampled independently from an (approximate) complex projective t-design with $t=4$. In the Gaussian case, we require $m\ge Crn$ measurements, while in the case of 4-designs we need $m\ge \mathit{Cr}n\log ?(n)$. Our results are uniform in the sense that one random choice of the measurement vectors $a_j$ guarantees recovery of all rank r-matrices simultaneously with high probability. Moreover, we prove robustness of recovery under perturbation of the measurements by noise. The result for approximate 4-designs generalizes and improves a recent bound on phase retrieval due to Gross, Krahmer and Kueng. In addition, it has applications in quantum state tomography. Our proofs employ the so-called bowling scheme which is based on recent ideas by Mendelson and Koltchinskii.     

Phase II monitoring of changes in mean from high‐dimensional data

The generalized T² chart (GT‐chart), which is composed of the T² statistic based on a small number of principal components and the remaining components, is a popular alternative to the traditional Hotelling's T² control chart. However, the application of the GT‐chart to high‐dimensional data, which are now ubiquitous, encounters difficulties from high dimensionality similar to other multivariate procedures. The sample principal components and their eigenvalues do not consistently estimate the population values, and the GT‐chart relying on them is also inconsistent in estimating the control limits. In this paper, we investigate the effects of high dimensionality on the GT‐chart and then propose a corrected GT‐chart using the recent results of random matrix theory for the spiked covariance model. We numerically show that the corrected GT‐chart exhibits superior performance compared to the existing methods, including the GT‐chart and Hotelling's T² control chart, under various high‐dimensional cases. Finally, we apply the proposed corrected GT‐chart to monitor chemical processes introduced in the literature.     

Norm equalities and inequalities for three circulant operator matrices

In this paper, three new circulant operator matrices, scaled circulant operator matrices, diag-circulant operator matrices and retrocirculant operator matrices, are given respectively. Several norm equalities and inequalities for these operator matrices are proved. We show the special cases for norm equalities and inequalities, such as the usual operator norm and the Schatten p-norm. Pinching type inequality is also given for weakly unitarily invariant norms. These results are closely related to the nice structure of these special operator matrices. Furthermore, some special cases and specific examples are also considered.     

On realization of fusion rings from generalized Cartan matrices

The Casimir element of a fusion ring (R, B) gives rise to the so called Casimir matrix C of (R, B). This enables us to construct a generalized Cartan matrix D-C in the sense of Kac for a suitable diagonal matrix D. In this paper, we study some elementary properties of the Casimir matrix C and use them to realize certain fusion rings from the generalized Cartan matrix D-C of finite (resp. affine) type. It turns out that there exists a fusion ring with D-C being of finite (resp. affine) type if and only if D-C has only the form A₂ (resp. A₁⁽¹⁾. We also realize all fusion rings with D-C being a particular generalized Cartan matrix of indefinite type.
