For the proof, eigenvalues and eigenvectors of block circulant matrices are used. The proved theorem has important consequences as for the analogies between the time and frequency domain calculations. In particular, the complex principal components are used for low-rank approximation of the process; whereas, the block Cholesky decomposition of the block Toeplitz matrix gives rise to dimension reduction within the innovation subspaces. The results are illustrated on a financial time series.","PeriodicalId":43276,"journal":{"name":"Special Matrices","volume":"9 1","pages":"36 - 51"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1515/spma-2020-0121","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42596897","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such a pattern is said to be spectrally arbitrary when it carries essentially no information about the eigenvalues of A. A longstanding open question concerns the smallest possible number of nonzero entries in an n × n spectrally arbitrary pattern. The Generalized 2n Conjecture states that, for a pattern that meets an appropriate irreducibility condition, this number is 2n. An example of Shitov shows that this irreducibility is essential; following his technique, we construct a smaller such example. We then develop an appropriate algebraic condition and apply it computationally to show that, for n ≤ 7, the conjecture does hold for ℝ, and that there are essentially only two possible counterexamples over ℂ. Examining these two patterns, we highlight the problem of determining whether or not either is in fact spectrally arbitrary over ℂ. A general method for making this determination for a pattern remains a major goal; we introduce an algebraic tool that may be helpful.","PeriodicalId":43276,"journal":{"name":"Special Matrices","volume":"9 1","pages":"257 - 274"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1515/spma-2020-0136","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48658253","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Furthermore, the resulting matrix (that is explicity provided) is permutative, meaning that each of its rows is a permutation of the first row.

Besides, Mathematica implementation codes of the algorithm are also provided. The problems of characterizing all situations in which a linear combination of some special matrices, e.g. the matrices that coincide with some of their powers, is also a special matrix can easily be solved via the algorithm by choosing of the spectra of the matrices X and Xi, i = 1, 2, ..., m, as subsets of some particular sets. Nine of the open problems in the literature are solved by utilizing the algorithm. The results of the four of them, i.e. cubicity of linear combinations of two commuting cubic matrices, quadripotency of linear combinations of two commuting quadripotent matrices, tripotency of linear combinations of three mutually commuting tripotent matrices, and tripotency of linear combinations of four mutually commuting involutive matrices, are presented explicitly in this work. Due to the length of their presentations, the results of the five of them, i.e. quadraticity of linear combinations of three or four mutually commuting quadratic matrices, cubicity of linear combinations of three mutually commuting cubic matrices, quadripotency of linear combinations of three mutually commuting quadripotent matrices, and tripotency of linear combinations of four mutually commuting tripotent matrices, are given as program outputs only. The results obtained are extensions and/or generalizations of some of the results in the literature.","PeriodicalId":43276,"journal":{"name":"Special Matrices","volume":"9 1","pages":"305 - 320"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1515/spma-2020-0138","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44191201","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
