Description for Totally Nonnegative Matrices
Hardback. Presents a study of the theory of totally nonnegative matrices, defined by the nonnegativity of subdeterminants. This title explores methodological background, historical highlights of key ideas, and specialized topics. Series: Princeton Series in Applied Mathematics. Num Pages: 264 pages, 21 line illus. 3 tables. BIC Classification: PBW. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 240 x 156 x 22. Weight in Grams: 512.
Totally nonnegative matrices arise in a remarkable variety of mathematical applications. This book is a comprehensive and self-contained study of the essential theory of totally nonnegative matrices, defined by the nonnegativity of all subdeterminants. It explores methodological background, historical highlights of key ideas, and specialized topics. The book uses classical and ad hoc tools, but a unifying theme is the elementary bidiagonal factorization, which has emerged as the single most important tool for this particular class of matrices. Recent work has shown that bidiagonal factorizations may be viewed in a succinct combinatorial way, leading to many deep insights. Despite slow ... Read more
