High-dimensional time series may well be the most common type of dataset in the so-called “big data” revolution, and have entered current practice in many areas, including meteorology, genomics, chemometrics, connectomics, complex physics simulations, biological and environmental research,...

We consider sojourn or response times in processor-shared queues that have a finite population of potential users. Computing the response time of a tagged customer involves solving a finite system of linear ODEs. Writing the system in matrix form, we study the eigenvectors and eigenvalues in the...

This paper addresses the problem of reconstructing a low-rank signal matrix observed with additive Gaussian noise. We first establish that, under mild assumptions, one can restrict attention to orthogonally equivariant reconstruction methods, which act only on the singular values of the observed...

A new size-independent indicator of scientific journal prestige, the SJR2 indicator, is proposed. This indicator takes into account not only the prestige of the citing scientific journal but also its closeness to the cited journal using the cosine of the angle between the vectors of the two...

In this paper we consider the simpler GMRES method augmented by approximate eigenvectors for solving nonsymmetric linear systems. We modify the augmented restarted simpler GMRES proposed by Boojhawon and Bhuruth to obtain a simpler GMRES with deflated restarting. Moreover, we also propose a...
