Face-splitting product of two Vandermonde matrices: When is is invertible?

Let $A$ and $B$ be two $n^2 \times n$ Vandermonde matrices with coefficients $\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_{n^2}$ and $\beta_1,\ldots,\beta_{n^2}$. Let $M$ be the face-splitting product of $A$ and $B$, that ...

Evidence that matrix multiplication is not in $O(n^2\log^kn)$ time

It is commonly believed that for all $\epsilon > 0$, it is possible to multiply two $n \times n$ matrices in $O(n^{2 + \epsilon})$ time. Some discussion is here. I have asked some people who are ...

Matrix multiplication with transpose

Let $A,B\in\mathbb{F}^{n\times n}$ be two $n\times n$ matrices over the underlying field $\mathbb{F}$. In addition, $A$ is guaranteed to be a symmetric matrix, i.e, $A=A^{T}$. We assume complexity ...

Is there a diagonal matrix D such that DMD is SDD, where M is SPD matrix

Let $M$ be symmetric and positive definite matrix (SPD). It is known [1] that if $M$ is SPD and in addition satisfies $M_{ij}\leq 0$, for $i\neq j$ (called M-matrix) then there is a positive ...

state-of-the-art bit complexity of the determinant

I'm trying to understand the full bit-complexity of computing the determinant of an $n\times n$ integer matrix, with each entry represented by $M$ bits. I would like to know what is the state-of-the-...

the product of a matrix and a permutation matrix [closed]

Can a permutation matrix (P) be used to change the rank of another matrix (M)? Is there any literature to this effect, or to the contrary? I've tried a few small examples and the resulting matrix (M2)...

Matrix multiplication algorithms for research

I am implementing a matrix library for use in my research. This should support 2D matrices of size 100x100 (or more perhaps later on). I am a little confused about the algorithm I should be using for ...

the largest element of a matrix product

Given two matrices, I'm interested in finding the largest element of their product. I wonder if it's possible to do it significantly faster than the matrix multiplication the solution seems to require?...

Bigger picture behind the choice of matrices in the Strassen algorithm

In the Strassen algorithm, to compute the product of two matrices $\mathbf{A}$ and $\mathbf{B}$, the matrices $\mathbf{A}$ and $\mathbf{B}$ are divided into $2 \times 2$ block matrices and the ...

All Pairs Shortest Path - Directed graph with integer weights

I don't understand how Distance Product works (or Min Plus Product). If we replace each argument in $A$ from $a_{i,j}$ to $x^{a_{i,j}}$ and each argument in $B$ from $b_{i,j}$ to $x^{b_{i,j}}$ and ...

What about apply maxplus algebra for all-pairs shortest paths?

I didn't find deep informations on Wikipedia about all-pairs shortest path, in particular I do not know what is the best algorithm to solve this problem beyond Floyd-Warshall's one, then I do not know ...

What is the most general structure on which matrix product verification can be done in $O(n^2)$ time?

In 1979, Freivalds showed that verifying matrix products over any field can be done in randomized $O(n^2)$ time. More formally, given three matrices A, B, and C, with entries from a field F, the ...

Evidence that matrix multiplication can be done in quadratic time?

It is widely conjectured that $\omega$, the optimal exponent for matrix multiplication, is in fact equal to 2. My question is simple: What reasons do we have for believing that $\omega = 2$? I'm ...
