چکیده

We extend an interesting theorem of Yuan [12] for two quadratic forms to three matrices. Let C1, C2, C3 be three symmetric matrices in <n×n , if max{xT C1x, xT C2x, xT C3x} ≥ 0 for all x ∈ <n , it is proved that there exist ti ≥ 0 (i = 1, 2, 3) such that ∑3 i=1 ti = 1 and ∑3 i=1 ti Ci has at most one negative eigenvalue.

Applications of quadratic D-forms to generalized quadratic forms

In this paper, we study generalized quadratic forms over a division algebra with involution of the first kind in characteristic two. For this, we associate to every generalized quadratic from a quadratic form on its underlying vector space. It is shown that this form determines the isotropy behavior and the isometry class of generalized quadratic forms.

A Note on Quadratic Maps for Hilbert Space Operators

In this paper, we introduce the notion of sesquilinear map on Β(H) . Based on this notion, we define the quadratic map, which is the generalization of positive linear map. With the help of this concept, we prove several well-known equality and inequality...

A Note on Some Partitions Related to Ternary Quadratic Forms

We offer some partition functions related to ternary quadratic forms, and note on its asymptotic behavior. We offer these results as an application of a simple method related to conjugate Bailey pairs.

Approximating the Distributions of Singular Quadratic Expressions and their Ratios

Noncentral indefinite quadratic expressions in possibly non- singular normal vectors are represented in terms of the difference of two positive definite quadratic forms and an independently distributed linear combination of standard normal random variables. This result also ap- plies to quadratic forms in singular normal vectors for which no general representation is currently available. The ...

A Note on Hermitian Forms

In this note we effect a reduction of the theory of hermitian forms of two particular types (coefficients in a quadratic field or in a quaternion algebra with the usual anti-automorphism) to that of quadratic forms. The main theorem (§2) enables us to apply directly the known results on quadratic forms. This is illustrated in the discussion in §3 of a number of special cases. Let <£ be an arbit...

A Note on Moment Inequality for Quadratic Forms

Moment inequality for quadratic forms of random vectors is of particular interest in covariance matrix testing and estimation problems. In this paper, we prove a Rosenthal-type inequality, which exhibits new features and certain improvement beyond the unstructured Rosenthal inequality of quadratic forms when dimension of the vectors increases without bound. Applications to test the block diagon...
