We present a procedure which enables the computation and the description of structures of isotropy subgroups of the group of complex orthogonal matrices with respect to the action of *congruence on Hermitian matrices. A key ingredient in our proof is an algorithm giving solutions of a certain rectangular block (complex-alternating) upper triangular Toeplitz matrix equation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Cayley transform of a matrix A , C (A) = (I + A) − 1 (I − A) , has been investigated in the contexts of skew-symmetry, eigenvalue mapping and as a factorization technique for several matrix positivity classes. Here, we extend the discussion to Cayley transforms of almost skew-Hermitian matrices, positive definite matrices, semipositive matrices, as well as subclasses of the M -matrices, H -matrices and their inverses.

In this paper, by using gradients of Gateaux differentiable G -increasing functions, we establish some interpolation results for the following G -majorization triangle inequality: (x + y) ↓ ≺ G x ↓ + y ↓ for vectors x , y of an Eaton triple with normal map (⋅) ↓. In particular, we show refinements for the majorization Ky Fan's eigenvalue inequality λ (x + y) ≺ m λ (x) + λ (y) for x , y ∈ H n , where H n is the space of n × n Hermitian matrices and λ (⋅) is the eigenvalue operator on H n. We derive analogous results for an inner product space with its standard norm, and for real skew-symmetric matrices with their singular values. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The receiver's architecture is always a critical issue in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, as it has a great impact on the system's performance and complexity. Accordingly, in this paper, a spectral decomposition-based minimum mean squared error (MMSE) receiver is proposed in an uplink multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) system with a full-duplex decode and forward relay. Imperfect channel state information is assumed at the relay and base station where, least-squares channel estimation technique is applied due to its simplicity and low complexity. An equivalent relay is applied for self-interference cancellation. While, multi-user interference is mitigated by using the block diagonalization concept. A closed-form expression for the mean squared error (MSE) of the estimated data symbol is derived in the presence of channel estimation error. Moreover, an optimization problem is solved to derive an expression for the proposed MMSE receiver's matrix. Finally, the performance of the proposed receiver is compared to that of the conventional receiver and Zero-forcing (ZF) receiver. Results show the superiority of the proposed receiver over both receivers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
