Let $R$ be a valuation ring with fraction field $K$ and $2\in R^\times$. We give an elementary proof of the following known result: Two unimodular quadratic forms over $R$ are isometric over $K$ if and only if they are isometric over $R$.…

Let $R$ be a semilocal Dedekind domain. Under certain assumptions, we show that two (not necessarily unimodular) hermitian forms over an $R$-algebra with involution, which are rationally ismorphic and have isomorphic semisimple coradicals,…

We shall say that a densely defined closed operator $T$ on a Hilbert space is balanced if $\cD(T)=\cD(T^*)$. Balanced operators are described in terms of their phase operators abnd their moduli. Examples of balanced operators are developed.…

Double forms are sections of the vector bundles $\Lambda^{k}T^*\mathcal{M}\otimes \Lambda^{m}T^*\mathcal{M}$, where in this work $(\mathcal{M},\mathfrak{g})$ is a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. We study graded second-order…

We analyze the perturbations $T+B$ of a selfadjoint operator $T$ in a Hilbert space $H$ with discrete spectrum $\{t_k \}$, $T \phi_k = t_k \phi_k$, as an extension of our constructions in arXiv: 0912.2722 where $T$ was a harmonic oscillator…

The spectral analysis of the (local) conductor operator H = log(|q|) + log(|p|) was shown in a previous paper to be given by the Explicit Formula. I give here the spectral analysis of the commutator operator K = i[log(|p|),log(|q|)] (which…

Using the approach proposed in [5] , in an infinite-dimensional separable complex Hilbert space we give abstract constructions of families $\{{\mathcal T}_z\}_{{\rm Im\,} z>0}$ of closed densely defined symmetric operators with the…

In this article, for Hamiltonian systems with two degrees of freedom, we study doubly symmetric periodic orbits, i.e. those which are symmetric with respect to two (distinct) commuting antisymplectic involutions. These are ubiquitous in…

Let $X$ be a compact strictly pseudoconvex embeddable CR manifold and let $T_P$ be the Toeplitz operator on $X$ associated with some first order pseudodifferential operator $P$. We consider $\chi_k(T_P)$ the functional calculus of $T_P$ by…

The asymptotic behavior of second order self-adjoint elliptic Steklov eigenvalue problems with periodic rapidly oscillating coefficients and with indefinite (sign-changing) density function is investigated in periodically perforated…

A smooth counterexample to the Hamiltonian Seifert conjecture for six-dimensional symplectic manifolds is found. In particular, we construct a smooth proper function on the symplectic 2n-dimensional vector space, 2n > 4, such that one of…

Given a contraction A on a Hilbert space H, an operator T on H is said to be A-invariant if <Tx,x>=<TAx,Ax> for every x in H such that ||Ax||=||x||. In the special case in which both defect indices of A are equal to 1, we show that every…

Given a compact connected Riemann surface $X$ equipped with an antiholomorphic involution $\tau$, we consider the projective structures on $X$ satisfying a compatibility condition with respect to $\tau$. For a projective structure $P$ on…

We provide an explicit normal distinguished boundary dilation to a pair of commuting operators $(S,P)$ having the closed symmetrized bidisc $\Gamma$ as a spectral set. This is called Sz.-Nagy dilation of $(S,P)$. The operator pair that…

The classical spectral theorem completely describes self-adjoint operators on finite dimensional inner product vector spaces as linear combinations of orthogonal projections onto pairwise orthogonal subspaces. We prove a similar theorem for…

We study symplectic geometry of rationally connected $3$-folds. The first result shows that rationally connectedness is a symplectic deformation invariant in dimension $3$. If a rationally connected $3$-fold $X$ is Fano or $b_2(X)=2$, we…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be the $C^*$-algebra associated with $SU_q(2)$, $\pi$ be the representation by left multiplication on the $L_2$ space of the Haar state and let $D$ be the equivariant Dirac operator for this representation constructed by…

We study smooth projective varieties with small dual variety using methods from symplectic topology. We prove the affine parts of such varieties are subcritical, and that the hyperplane class is invertible in their quantum cohomology. We…

We study a class of PT-symmetric semiclassical Schr\"odinger operators, which are perturbations of a selfadjoint one. Here, we treat the case where the unperturbed operator has a double-well potential. In the simple well case, two of the…

Graded skew-commutative rings occur often in practice. Here are two examples: 1) The cohomology ring of a compact three-dimensional manifold. 2) The cohomology ring of the complement of a hyperplane arrangement (the Orlik-Solomon algebra).…
