Totally Positive Wronskian Matrices and Symmetric Functions [PDF]
The elements of the bidiagonal decomposition (BD) of a totally positive (TP) collocation matrix can be expressed in terms of symmetric functions of the nodes. Making use of this result, and studying the relation between Wronskian and collocation matrices

Gaussian Markov Random Fields and totally positive matrices [PDF]
The present paper focuses on the study of the conditions under which the covariance matrix of a multivariate Gaussian distribution is totally positive, paying particular attention to multivariate Gaussian distributions that are Gaussian Markov Random ...

Total positivity of a shuffle matrix [PDF]
Holte introduced a [math] matrix [math] as a transition matrix related to the carries obtained when summing [math] numbers base [math] . Since then Diaconis and Fulman have further studied this matrix proving it to also be a transition matrix related to the process of [math] -riffle shuffling [math] cards.

Total positivity and spectral theory for Toeplitz Hessenberg matrix ensembles
In this paper we define and lay the groundwork for studying a novel matrix ensemble: totally positive Hessenberg Toeplitz operators, denoted TPHT. This is the intersection of two ensembles that have been significantly explored: totally positive Hessenberg matrices (TPH) and Hessenberg Toeplitz matrices (HT).

Fast Projected Newton-like Method for Precision Matrix Estimation under Total Positivity
We study the problem of estimating precision matrices in Gaussian distributions that are multivariate totally positive of order two ($\mathrm{MTP}_2$). The precision matrix in such a distribution is an M-matrix. This problem can be formulated as a sign-constrained log-determinant program.

The Inverse of a Totally Positive Bi-Infinite Band Matrix [PDF]
It is shown that a bounded bi-infinite banded totally positive matrix A is boundedly invertible iff there is one and only one bounded sequence mapped by A to the sequence ((-)')■ The argument shows that such a matrix has a main diagonal, i.e., the inverse of A is the bounded pointwise limit of inverses of finite sections of A principal with respect to ...
