Approximating the inverse of a symmetric positive definite matrix
Abstract It is shown for an n × n symmetric positive definite matrix T = ( t i , j with negative off-diagonal elements, positive row sums and satisfying certain bounding conditions that its inverse is well approximated, uniformly to order l/ n 2 , by a matrix S = ( s i , j ), where s i , j = δ i , j / t i , j + 1/ t..

Minimizing the condition number of a positive definite matrix by completion [PDF]
Let \(W = W(X)\) denote an Hermitian matrix with blocks \(W_{ij}\), \(i = 1,2\). Three of the four blocks are given, viz. \(W_{11} = A\), an Hermitian positive definite \(n \times n\) matrix and \(W_{21} = W_{12}^ H = B\), a \(p \times n\) matrix. The problem is to complete the matrix with \(W_{22} = X\), a \(p \times p\) matrix such that \(\kappa (W)\)

Symmetric Positive Semi-Definite Fourier Estimator of Spot Covariance Matrix with High Frequency Data [PDF]
This paper proposes a nonparametric estimator of the spot volatility matrix with high-frequency data. Our newly proposed Positive Definite Fourier (PDF) estimator produces symmetric positive semi-definite estimates and is consistent with a suitable ...

Positive definite solution of non-linear matrix equations through fixed point technique
The goal of this study is to solve a non-linear matrix equation of the form $ \mathcal{X} = \mathcal{Q} + \sum\limits_{i = 1}^{m} \mathcal{B}_{i}^{*}\mathcal{G} (\mathcal{X})\mathcal{B}_{i} $, where $ \mathcal{Q} $ is a Hermitian positive definite ...

Positive Definiteness of Symmetric Rank 1 (H-Version) Update for Unconstrained Optimization
Several attempts have been made to modify the quasi-Newton condition in order to obtain rapid convergence with complete properties (symmetric and positive definite) of the inverse of Hessian matrix (second derivative of the objective function).
