A Non-convex Optimization Approach of Searching Algebraic Degree Phase-type Representations for General Phase-type Distributions
Yujie Liu, Dacheng Yao, Hanqin Zhang
For a continuous-time phase-type distribution, starting with its Laplace-Stieltjes transform, we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for its minimal phase-type representati…

On Substochastic Inverse Eigenvalue Problems with the Corresponding Eigenvector Constraints
Yujie Liu, Dacheng Yao, Hanqin Zhang
We consider the inverse eigenvalue problem of constructing a substochastic matrix from the given spectrum parameters with the corresponding eigenvector constraints. This substochas…
