A Leonard pair is a pair of diagonalizable linear transformations of a finite-dimensional vector space, each of which acts in an irreducible tridiagonal fashion on an eigenbasis for the other one. In the present paper we give an elementary…

A vector space S of linear operators between finite-dimensional vector spaces U and V is called locally linearly dependent (in abbreviate form: LLD) when every vector x in U is annihilated by a non-zero operator in S. By a duality argument,…

Three loop ladder and $V$-topology diagrams contributing to the massive operator matrix element $A_{Qg}$ are calculated. The corresponding objects can all be expressed in terms of nested sums and recurrences depending on the Mellin variable…

The finite families of Hahn polynomials and associated biorthogonal rational functions are interpreted algebraically in the framework of Leonard trios. We introduce the trio Hahn algebra and prove that it is isomorphic to the meta Hahn…

We define an algebra on two generators which we call the Tridiagonal algebra, and we consider its irreducible modules. The algebra is defined as follows. Let K denote a field, and let $\beta, \gamma, \gamma^*, \varrho, \varrho^*$ denote a…

We consider a Leonard pair $A, A^*$ of linear maps on a vector space $V$ that has finite positive dimension. This Leonard pair $A,A^*$ is said to have spin whenever there exist invertible linear maps $W : V \to V$ and $W^* : V \to V$ such…

In this paper we consider how the following three objects are related: (i) the dual polar graphs; (ii) the quantum algebra U_q(sl_2); (iii) the Leonard systems of dual q-Krawtchouk type. For convenience we first describe how (ii) and (iii)…

Let $D$ denote a positive integer and let $Q_D$ denote the graph of the $D$-dimensional hypercube. Let $X$ denote the vertex set of $Q_D$ and let $A \in \MX$ denote the adjacency matrix of $Q_D$. A matrix $B \in \MX$ is called $A$-{\em…

Let $V$ denote a nonzero finite-dimensional vector space. A tridiagonal pair on $V$ is an ordered pair $A, A^*$ of maps in ${\rm End}(V)$ such that (i) each of $A, A^*$ is diagonalizable; (ii) there exists an ordering $\lbrace V_i…

We employ a skew group ring of $\mathbb Z/2\mathbb Z$ over $U(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ to construct modules over the universal Bannai--Ito algebra. In addition, we give the conditions under which the defining generators act as Leonard triples on…

Let $V$ denote a vector space with finite positive dimension, and let $(A,B)$ denote a Leonard pair on $V$. As is known, the linear transformations $A,B$ satisfy the Askey-Wilson relations A^2B -bABA +BA^2 -g(AB+BA) -rB = hA^2 +wA +eI, B^2A…

We classify all triples $(G,V,H)$ such that $SL_n(q)\leq G\leq GL_n(q)$, $V$ is a representation of $G$ of dimension greater than one over an algebraically closed field $\FF$ of characteristic coprime to $q$, and $H$ is a proper subgroup of…

We introduce a linear algebraic object called a bidiagonal triad. A bidiagonal triad is a modification of the previously studied and similarly defined concept of bidiagonal triple. A bidiagonal triad and a bidiagonal triple both consist of…

A unital $C^*$-algebra is called $N$-subhomogeneous if its irreducible representations are finite dimensional with dimension at most $N$. We extend this notion to operator systems, replacing irreducible representations by boundary…

We show that the sets of $d$-dimensional Latin hypercubes over a non-empty set $X$, with $d$ running over the positive integers, determine an operad which is isomorphic to a sub-operad of the endomorphism operad of $X$. We generalise this…

Let $k$ be a field. We consider triples $(V,U,T)$, where $V$ is a finite dimensional $k$-space, $U$ a subspace of $V$ and $T \:V \to V$ a linear operator with $T^n = 0$ for some $n$, and such that $T(U) \subseteq U$. Thus, $T$ is a…
