#OK to post homework #Joseph Koutsoutis, 05-04-2025, Assignment 26 read `C26.txt`: #1 #This week I tried experimenting with the following matrix types: #symmetric, antisymmetric, tridiagonal, uppertriangular #Toeplitz, Hankel, circulant, tridiagonal Toeplitz #while zeroing out certain entries and raising matrices to different powers. #I couldn't find any nontrivial cases involving raising the matrices to different powers #(probably because I was only working with 2x2 matrices here), but there is some potentially #interesting behavior based on n=2,3,4 where the following matrix classes didn't require #2n matrices: #1. any matrix type with a row or column set to 0 #2. symmetric and antisymmetric matrices with the diagonal set to 0 #3. Toeplitz matrices with entries above the diagonal set to 0 #4. Hankel matrices with entries above the off-diagonal set to 0 #This week I'll focus on finding identities involving circulant matrices with different #shifts and the 4 classes above. #2 #I probably won't be able to come to the tour but I'll email by Monday night if this changes. #3 #subs({seq(x[i] = 2, i=1..binomial(13, 2))}, CIPknC(13,x)) outputs 50502031367952 #4 #this is from from C27.txt NuULGe:=proc(N,r) local L,x,i,t: L:=[seq(CIPknC(i,x),i=1..N)]: L:=subs({seq(x[i]=1+t^i,i=1..binomial(N,2))},L): [seq(coeff(L[i],t, i+r ), i=1..N)]: end: #NuULGe(13, 17)[-1] outputs 584089835857 #5 #https://oeis.org/A001433 is the number of graphs with n nodes and n-1 edges #https://oeis.org/A001434 is the number of graphs with n nodes and n edges #https://oeis.org/A048179 is the number of graphs with n nodes and n+1 edges
