The most investigated of these matrices are the alternating sign matrices (ASMs), where the rows also have the alternating sign property, and all row and column sums equal 1. We introduce monotone triangles to represent SRMs and investigate some of their properties and connections to certain polytopes. We also investigate two partial orders for ASMs related to their patterns alternating cycles and show a number of combinatorial properties of these orders.","PeriodicalId":50540,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Journal of Linear Algebra","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46211668","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Depending on the concrete application, there exist several subclasses each of which performs a NMF under certain constraints. Consider a given square matrix $A$. The symmetric NMF aims for a nonnegative low-rank approximation $Aapprox XX^T$ to $A$, where $X$ is entrywise nonnegative and of given order. Considering a rectangular input matrix $A$, the general NMF again aims for a nonnegative low-rank approximation to $A$ which is now of the type $Aapprox XY$ for entrywise nonnegative matrices $X,Y$ of given order. In this paper, we introduce a new heuristic method to tackle the exact nonnegative matrix factorization problem (of type $A=XY$), based on projection approaches to solve a certain feasibility problem.","PeriodicalId":50540,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Journal of Linear Algebra","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46321596","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For example, a simple-to-test criterion that determines which Hermitian matrices are Birkhoff-James orthogonal, in the trace norm, to the set of all positive semidefinite diagonal matrices is developed. Applications in the theory of quantum resources are explored. For example, the quantum states that have modified trace distance of coherence equal to $1$ (the maximal possible value) are characterized, and a connection between the modified trace distance of $2$-entanglement and the NPPT bound entanglement problem is established.","PeriodicalId":50540,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Journal of Linear Algebra","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42387240","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Furthermore, we illustrate how tensor-based global approaches can be exploited to solve ill-posed problems arising from recovering blurry multichannel (color) images and videos, using the so-called Tikhonov regularization technique, to provide computable approximate regularized solutions. We also review a generalized cross-validation and discrepancy principle type of criterion for the selection of the regularization parameter in the Tikhonov regularization. Applications to image sequence processing are given to demonstrate the efficiency of the algorithms.","PeriodicalId":50540,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Journal of Linear Algebra","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41383661","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
