It is well known that distribution of functions of eigen values and vectors of a certain matrix plays an important role in multivariate analysis. This paper deals with the transformation of a correlation-type random matrix to its eigen values and vectors. Properties of the transformation are also considered. The results obtained are applied to express the joint distribution of eigen values and vectors of the correlation matrix when sample is taken from a m-variate spherical distribution.

Yam extracts (Dioscorea batatas) have been reported to possess a variety of functions. However, studies on its osteogenic properties are limited. In this study, we investigated the effect of ethanol and water extracts on osteoblast proliferation and bone matrix protein synthesis, type I collagen and alkaline phosphatase (ALP), using osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cell model. MC3T3-E1 cells were cultured with yam ethanol and water extracts (0~30 mg/L) within 39 days of osteoblast differentiation period. Cell proliferation was measured by MTT assay. Bone matrix proteins were assessed by the accumulation of type I collagen and ALP activity by staining the cell layers for matrix staining. Also, the secreted (media) matrix protein concentration (type I collagen) and enzyme activity (ALP) were measured colorimetrically. Yam ethanol and water extracts stimulated cell proliferation within the range of 15~30 mg/L at 15 day treatment. The accumulation of type I collagen in the extracellular matrix, as well as secreted collagen in the media, increased with increasing doses of yam ethanol (3~15 mg/L) and water (3~30 mg/L) extracts. ALP activity was not affected by yam ethanol extracts. Our results demonstrated that yam extracts stimulated osteoblast proliferation and enhanced the accumulation of the collagenous bone matrix protein type I collagen in the extracellular matrix. These results suggest that yam extracts may be a potential activator for bone formation by increasing osteoblast proliferation and increasing bone matrix protein type I collagen. Before confirming the osteogenic action of yam, further studies for clarifying how and whereby yam extracts can stimulate this ostegenesis action are required.

Let S_n = [S(i, j)]_1≤i,j≤n and S^*_n = [S(i + j, j)]_1≤i,j≤n where S(i, j) is the Stirling number of the second kind. Choi and Jo [On the determinants of the square-type Stirling matrix and Bell matrix, Int. J. Math. Math. Sci. 2021] obtained the diagonal entries of matrix U in the LU-factorization of S^*_n for calculating the determinant of S^*_n, where L = S_n. In this paper, we compute the all entries of U in the LU-factorization of matrix S^*_n. This implies the identities related to Stirling numbers of both kinds.

The Lie algebra of type $F_4$ has the 26 dimensional representation. Its matrix realization can be obtained via 26 by 26 matrices and has a direct useful application to degenerate principal series for p-adic groups of type $F_4$.

The Faddeev-type equations for systems of more than four particles are derived from Weinberg's equation. The derivation is considerably simpler than that by others. The Faddeev-type equations thus derived can be expressed in a matrix form and the rules for constructing the inhomogeneous term and the matrix kernel of the matrix integral equation are formulated and verified explicitly for N=3, 4, and 5.

The characteristic of synthesized potassium hexatitanate and manufacturing of thin film type matrix for battery was studied. After ball milled the mixture with 1:4 of $K_2CO_3$ and TiO2, mixsture was sintered at 85$0^{\circ}C$ and its product was confirmed with XRD. Adding the PTFE to the obtained potassium hexatitanate according to there various ball-mill time to control its particle size, thin film type matrix was manufactured. The high-est wettability of 50% was found with 12 hour ball milled powder containing 10w/o of PTFE and also it shown good mechanical properties. The matrix with $K_2O$$\cdot$$6TiO_2$ whisker shown 170% of wettability. Thed char-acteristics of matrix made by whisker and powder mixture were compared with the investigation of bubbled pressure and pore size distribution to improve its mechanical properties.

In this paper, the three-level T-type neutral-point-clamped indirect matrix converter topology and the relative space vector modulation methods are introduced to improve the voltage transfer ratio and output voltage performance. The presented converter topology is based on combinations of cascaded-rectifier and three-level T-type neutral-point-clamp inverter. It can overcome the limitation of voltage transfer ratio of the conventional matrix converter and the high voltage rating of power switches of conventional matrix converter. Two SVPWM strategies for proposed converter are described in this paper to achieve the advantages features such as: sinusoidal input/output currents and three-level output voltage waveforms. Results from Psim 9.0 software simulation are provided to confirm the theoretical analysis. Hence, a laboratory prototype was implemented, and the experimental results are shown to validate the simulation results and to verify the effectiveness of the proposed topology and modulation strategies.

The purpose of this paper is study the sensitivity analysis of matrix game. Teh sensitivity analysis of matrix is classified into two types. Type one is to find the characteristic region of an element of the pay off matrix in which the value of the current optimal strategy remains as an optimum. Type two is to find that in which the basis of the current optimal strategy does not change. This paper shows the characteristic regions of basic and nonbasic strategies. Further it is found that the characteristic regions of type one and two are same in the case that the element is that of at least one player's nonbasic strategy.

Shifts of finite type are represented by nonnegative integral square matrics, and conjugacy between two shifts of finite type is determined by strong shift equivalence between the representing nonnegative intergral square matrices. But determining strong shift equivalence is usually a very difficult problem. we develop splittings and amalgamations of nonnegative integral matrices, which are analogues of those of directed graphs, and show that two nonnegative integral square matrices are strong shift equivalent if and only if one is obtained from a higher matrix of the other matrix by a series of amalgamations.

By applying a classical approach for scalar rational interpolation problem, certain type of minimal interpolation problem for rational matrix functions is solved. It is shown that an appropriately defined matrix plays a key role in solving the minimal problem.
