We introduce a new ``greedy cleaning'' model where a star-like state space (containing N half-lines connected by the origin) is covered by a homogeneous Poisson process of ``dust particles'', and N^{\alpha} cleaners/workers proceed with…

Let $A$ be a Banach space, $p>1$, and $1/p+1/q=1$. If a sequence $a=(a_i)$ in $A$ has a finite $p$-sum, then the operator $\Lambda_a:\ell^q\to A$, defined by $\Lambda_a(\beta)=\sum_{i=1}^\infty \beta_i a_i, \beta=(\beta_i)\in \ell^q$, is…

A purification algorithm for expanding the single-particle density matrix in terms of the Hamiltonian operator is proposed. The scheme works with a predefined occupation and requires less than half the number of matrix-matrix…

It is shown that for positive real numbers $ 0<\lambda_{1}<\dots<\lambda_{n}$, $\left[\frac{1}{\beta({\lambda_i}, {\lambda_j})}\right]$, where $ \beta(\cdot,\cdot)$ denotes the beta function, is infinitely divisible and totally positive.…

Let $(1) Rh=f$, $0\leq x\leq L$, $Rh=\int^L_0 R(x,y)h(y) dy$, where the kernel $R(x,y)$ satisfies the equation $QR=P\delta(x-y)$. Here $Q$ and $P$ are formal differential operators of order $n$ and $m<n$, respectively, $n$ and $m$ are…

We establish two global subellipticity properties of positive symmetric second-order partial differential operators on $L_2(\Ri^d)$. First, if $m \in \Ni$ then we consider operators $H_0$ with coefficients in $W^{m+1,\infty}(\Ri^d)$ and…

The Dobrushin comparison theorem is a powerful tool to bound the difference between the marginals of high-dimensional probability distributions in terms of their local specifications. Originally introduced to prove uniqueness and decay of…

Our main result is a theorem saying that a bounded operator $A$ on a Hilbert space belongs to a certain set associated with its self-commutator $[A^*,A]$, provided that $A-zI$ can be approximated by invertible operators for all complex…

Matching dependencies were recently introduced as declarative rules for data cleaning and entity resolution. Enforcing a matching dependency on a database instance identifies the values of some attributes for two tuples, provided that the…

We show that if an infinite-dimensional Banach space X has a symmetric basis then there exists a bounded, linear operator R : X --> X such that the set A = {x in X : ||R^n(x)|| --> infinity} is non-empty and nowhere dense in X. Moreover, if…

We use Rokhlin's Theorem on the uniqueness of canonical systems to find a new way to establish connections between Function Theory in the unit disk and rank one perturbations of self-adjoint or unitary operators. In the n-dimensional case,…

We obtain optimal results in the problem of recovering the singularities of a potential from backscattering data. To do this we prove new estimates for the double dispersion operator of backscattering, the first nonlinear term in the Born…

In this paper, we consider a new class of multi phase operators with variable exponents, which reflects the inhomogeneous characteristics of hardness changes when multiple different materials are combined together. We at first deal with the…

Let H be a separable Hilbert space with a fixed orthonormal basis (e_n), n>=1, and B(H) be the full von Neumann algebra of the bounded linear operators T: H -> H. Identifying l^\infty = C(\beta N) with the diagonal operators, we consider…

A ring $R$ is called strongly clean if every element of $R$ is the sum of a unit and an idempotent that commute. By {\rm SRC} factorization, Borooah, Diesl, and Dorsey \cite{BDD051} completely determined when ${\mathbb M}_n(R)$ over a…

Missing data often exists in real-world datasets, requiring significant time and effort for data repair to learn accurate models. In this paper, we show that imputing all missing values is not always necessary to achieve an accurate ML…

In this paper we investigate the (Kohn-Sham) density-to-potential map in the case of spinless fermions in one spatial dimension, whose existence has been rigorously established by the first author in [arXiv:2504.05501 (2025)]. Here, we…

We establish a spectral duality for certain unbounded operators in Hilbert space. The class of operators includes discrete graph Laplacians arising from infinite weighted graphs. The problem in this context is to establish a practical…
