Symplectic eigenvalues are conventionally defined for symmetric positive-definite matrices via Williamson's diagonal form. Many properties of standard eigenvalues, including the trace minimization theorem, have been extended to the case of symplectic eigenvalues. In this note, we will generalize Williamson's diagonal form for symmetric positive-definite matrices to the case of symmetric positive-semidefinite matrices, which allows us to define symplectic eigenvalues, and prove the trace minimization theorem in the new setting.

Let $T$ be a tree of order $n$ and $S_2(T)$ be the sum of the two largest Laplacian eigenvalues of $T$. Fritscher et al. proved that for any tree $T$ of order $n$, $S_2(T) leq n+2-frac{2}{n}$. Guan et al. determined the tree with maximum $S_2(T)$ among all trees of order $n$. In this paper, we characterize the trees with $S_2(T) geq n+1$ among all trees of order $n$ except some trees. Moreover, among all trees of order $n$, we also determine the first $lfloorfrac{n-2}{2}rfloor$ trees according to their $S_2(T)$. This extends the result of Guan et al.

In this paper, we give a sufficient and necessary condition for the subdirect sum of a Nekrasov matrix and a strictly diagonally dominant matrix being still a Nekrasov matrix. Adopting this sufficient and necessary condition, we present several simple sufficient conditions ensuring that the subdirect sum of Nekrasov matrices is in the same class. Examples are reported to illustrate the theoretical results.

Two statements concerning $n$-by-$n$ partial isometries are being considered: (i) these matrices are generic, if unitarily irreducible, and (ii) if nilpotent, their numerical ranges are circular disks. Both statements hold for $nleq 4$ but fail starting with $n=5$.

Classes of an equivalence relation on a module $V$ over a supertropical semiring, called rays, carry the underlying structure of 'supertropical trigonometry' and thereby a version of convex geometry which is compatible with quasilinearity. In this theory, the traditional Cauchy-Schwarz inequality is replaced by the CS-ratio, which gives rise to special characteristic functions, called CS-functions. These functions partite the ray space $mathrm{Ray}(V)$ into convex sets and establish the main tool for analyzing varieties of quasilinear stars in $mathrm{Ray}(V)$. They provide stratifications of $mathrm{Ray}(V)$ and, therefore, a finer convex analysis that helps better understand geometric properties.

Given a graph $G$ with $mge 1$ edges, the non-backtracking spectral radius of $G$ is the spectral radius of its non-backtracking matrix $B(G)$ defined as the $2m times 2m$ matrix where each edge $uv$ is represented by two rows and two columns, one per orientation: $(u, v)$ and $(v, u)$, and the entry of $B(G)$ in row $(u, v)$ and column $(x,y)$ is given by $delta_{vx}(1-delta_{uy})$, with $delta_{ij}$ being the Kronecker delta. A tight upper bound is given for the non-backtracking spectral radius in terms of the spectral radius of the adjacency matrix and minimum degree, and those connected graphs that maximize the non-backtracking spectral radius are determined if the connectivity (edge connectivity, bipartiteness, respectively) is given.

For linear dynamical systems (in continuous-time and discrete-time), we revisit and extend the concepts of hypocoercivity and hypocontractivity and give a detailed analysis of the relations of these concepts to (asymptotic) stability, as well as (semi-)dissipativity and (semi-)contractivity, respectively. On the basis of these results, the short-time behavior of the propagator norm for linear continuous-time and discrete-time systems is characterized by the (shifted) hypocoercivity index and the (scaled) hypocontractivity index, respectively.

This paper is a study of the eigenvalues of a complex square matrix with one variable nondiagonal entry expressed in polar form. Changing the angle of the variable entry while leaving the radius fixed generates an algebraic curve; as does the process of fixing an angle and varying the radius. The authors refer to these two curves as eigenvalue orbits and eigenvalue trajectories, respectively. Eigenvalue orbits and trajectories are orthogonal families of curves, and eigenvalue orbits are sets of eigenvalues from matrices with identical Gershgorin regions. Algebraic and geometric properties of both types of curves are examined. Features such as poles, singularities, and foci are discussed.

We obtain formulae for group inverses of matrices that are associated with a new class of digraphs obtained from stars. This new class contains both bipartite and non-bipartite graphs. Expressions for the group inverse of matrices corresponding to double star digraphs and the adjacency matrix of certain undirected multi-star graphs are also proven. A blockwise representation of the inverse or group inverse of the adjacency matrix of the Dutch windmill graph is presented.
