Abstract Following the recent work of Zheng et al., in this paper, we first present a new extension Hartfiel’s determinant inequality to multiple positive definite matrices, and then we extend the result to a larger class of matrices, namely, matrices whose numerical ranges are contained in a sector. Our result complements that of Mao.

Finding clusters of well-connected nodes in a graph is a problem common to many domains, including social networks, the Internet and bioinformatics. From a computational viewpoint, finding these clusters or graph communities is a difficult problem. We use a clique matrix decomposition based on a statistical description that encourages clusters to be well connected and few in number. The formal intractability of inferring the clusters is addressed using a variational approximation inspired by mean-field theories in statistical mechanics. Clique matrices also play a natural role in parametrizing positive definite matrices under zero constraints on elements of the matrix. We show that clique matrices can parametrize all positive definite matrices restricted according to a decomposable graph and form a structured factor analysis approximation in the non-decomposable case. Extensions to conjugate Bayesian covariance priors and more general non-Gaussian independence models are briefly discussed.
