If A is a set colored with m colors, and B is colored with n colors, the coloring of A × B obtained by coloring (a, b) with the pair (color of a, color of b) will be called an m × n simple product coloring (SPC) of A × B. SPC's of Cartesian products of three or more sets are defined analogously. It is shown that there are 2 × 2, and 2 × 2 × 2 SPC's of 2 and 3 which forbid the distance one; that there is no 2k SPC of k forbidding the distance one, for k > 3; and that there is no 2 × 2 SPC of × (√15), and thus none of 2, forbidding the distance 1. 相似文献
Let A(n, k) be the number of k-long cycles generated by binary shift registers of span n ? 2. It is shown that A(n, k) is odd if and only if . A recursive construction of complete self-dual, self-reversing cycles of these lengths is presented. 相似文献
Let Mm,n(F) denote the space of all mXn matrices over the algebraically closed field F. A subspace of Mm,n(F), all of whose nonzero elements have rank k, is said to be essentially decomposable if there exist nonsingular mXn matrices U and V respectively such that for any element A, UAV has the form where A1 is iX(k–i) for some i?k. Theorem: If is a space of rank k matrices, then either is essentially decomposable or dim ?k+1. An example shows that the above bound on non-essentially-decomposable spaces of rank k matrices is sharp whenever n?2k–1. 相似文献
Finite-dimensional theorems of Perron-Frobenius type are proved. For A∈nn and a nonnegative integer k, we let wk (A) be the cone generated by Ak, Ak+1,…in nn. We show that A satisfies the Perron-Schaefer condition if and only if the closure k(A) of wk(A) is a pointed cone. This theorem is closely related to several known results. If k?v0(A), the index of the eigenvalue 0 in spec A, we prove that A has a positive eigenvalue if and only if wk(A) is a pointed nonzero cone or, equivalently k(A) is not a real subspace of nn. Our proofs are elementary and based on a method of Birkhoff's. We discuss the relation of this method to Pringsheim's theorem. 相似文献

The permanent function is used to determine geometrical properties of the set of all n × n nonnegative doubly stochastic matrices. If is a face of , then corresponds to an n × n (0, 1)-matrix A, where the permanent of A is the number of vertices of . If A is fully indecomposable, then the dimension of equals σ(A) ? 2n + 1, where σ(A) is the number of 1's in A. The only two-dimensional faces of are triangles and rectangles. For n ? 6, has four types of three-dimensional faces. The facets of the faces of are characterized. Faces of which are simplices are determined. If is a face of which is two-neighborly but not a simplex, then has dimension 4 and six vertices. All k-dimensional faces with k + 2 vertices are determined. The maximum number of vertices of a k-dimensional face is 2k. All k-dimensional faces with at least 2k?1 + 1 vertices are determined. 相似文献
Let be the Clifford algebra constructed over a quadratic n-dimensional real vector space with orthogonal basis {e1,…, en}, and e0 be the identity of . Furthermore, let Mk(Ω;) be the set of -valued functions defined in an open subset Ω of Rm+1 (1 ? m ? n) which satisfy Dkf = 0 in Ω, where D is the generalized Cauchy-Riemann operator and k? N. The aim of this paper is to characterize the dual and bidual of Mk(Ω;). It is proved that, if Mk(Ω;) is provided with the topology of uniform compact convergence, then its strong dual is topologically isomorphic to an inductive limit space of Fréchet modules, which in its turn admits Mk(Ω;) as its dual. In this way, classical results about the spaces of holomorphic functions and analytic functionals are generalized. 相似文献

We show that if A and B have the same dimension, and if the ring is a division ring , then AB if and only if A2 is similar to B2 and rank(Ak)=rank(Bk), k=1,2,… 相似文献
Let A be a real symmetric n × n matrix of rank k, and suppose that A = BB′ for some real n × m matrix B with nonnegative entries (for some m). (Such an A is called completely positive.) It is shown that such a B exists with , where 2N is the maximal number of (off-diagonal) entries which equal zero in a nonsingular principal submatrix of A. An example is given where the least m which works is (k odd), (k even). 相似文献

Let A be an n-square normal matrix over , and Qm, n be the set of strictly increasing integer sequences of length m chosen from 1,…, n. For α,β∈Qm, n denote by A[α|β] the submatrix obtained from A by using rows numbered α and columns numbered β. For k∈{0,1,…,m} write z.sfnc;α∩β|=k if there exists a rearrangement of 1,…,m, say i1,…,ik, ik+1,…,im, such that α(ij)=β(ij), j=1,…,k, and {α(ik+1),…,α(im)};∩{β(ik+1),…,β(im)}=ø. Let be the group of n-square unitary matrices. Define the nonnegative number , where |α∩β|=k. Theorem 1 establishes a bound for ?k(A), 0?k<m?1, in terms of a classical variational inequality due to Fermat. Let A be positive semidefinite Hermitian, n?2m.

Let n and m be natural numbers, n ? m. The separation power of order n and degree m is the largest integer k = k(n, m) such that for every (0, 1)-matrix A of order n with constant linesums equal to m and any set of k 1's in A there exist (disjoint) permutation matrices P1,…, Pm such that A = P1 + … + Pm and each of the k 1's lies in a different Pi. Almost immediately we have 1 ? k(n, m) ? m ? 1, yet in all cases where the value of k(n, m) is actually known it equals m ? 1 (except under the somewhat trivial circumstances of k(n, m) = 1). This leads to a conjecture about the separation power, namely that k(n, m) = m ? 1 if . We obtain the bound , so that this conjecture holds for n ? 7. We then move on to latin squares, describing several equivalent formulations of the concept. After establishing a sufficient condition for the completion of a partial latin square in terms of the separation power, we can show that the Evans conjecture follows from this conjecture about the separation power. Finally the lower bound on k(n, m) allows us to show, after some calculations, that the Evans conjecture is true for orders n ? 11. 相似文献
If is a finite-dimensional associative k-algebra with unit, then its rank R(), i.e. its bilinear complexity, is never less than . is said to be of minimal rank if . In this paper we determine for infinite perfect fields k all commutative k-algebras of minimal rank. Roughly speaking, these algebras are built up from simply generated structures which annihilate each other. Furthermore, we indicate how this result can be used to obtain new lower bounds for the rank of specific commutative algebras. 相似文献

Let k be a positive square free integer, the ring of algebraic integers in and S the unit sphere in Cn, complex n-space. If A1,…, An are n linearly independent points of Cn then L = {u1Au + … + unAn} with is called a k-lattice. The determinant of L is denoted by d(L). If L is a covering lattice for S, then is the covering density. L is called locally (absolutely) extreme if θ(S, L) is a local (absolute) minimum. In this paper we determine unique classes of extreme lattices for k = 1 and k = 3. 相似文献
