In this paper we derive novel families of inclusion sets for the spectrum and pseudospectrum of large classes of bounded linear operators, and establish convergence of particular sequences of these inclusion sets to the spectrum or…
We discuss some basic problems and conjectures in a program to construct general orbifold conformal field theories using the representation theory of vertex operator algebras. We first review a program to construct conformal field theories.…
The notion of ladder operators is introduced for systems with continuous spectra. We identify two different kinds of annihilation operators allowing the definition of coherent states as modified "eigenvectors" of these operators. Axioms of…
We prove that the universal theory and the quasi-equational theory of bounded residuated distributive lattice-orderegroupoids are both EXPTIME-complete. Similar results areproven for bounded distributive lattices with a unary or binary…
As a counterpart of the well-known generalized Wick theorem by Bais et. al. in 1988 for interacting fields in two dimensional conformal field theory, we present a new contour integral formula for the operator product expansion of a normally…
It is well-known that extending the Hilbert axiomatic system for first-order intuitionistic logic with an exclusion operator, that is dual to implication, collapses the domains of models into a constant domain. This makes it an interesting…
A linear operator $U$ acting boundedly on an infinite-dimensional separable complex Hilbert space $H$ is universal if every linear bounded operator acting on $H$ is similar to a scalar multiple of a restriction of $U$ to one of its…
In a previous paper I showed how the ideal SLAC derivative and second-derivative operators for an infinite lattice can be obtained in simple closed form in position space, and implemented very efficiently in a stochastic fashion for…
We discuss several open problems on spectrally bounded operators, some new, some old, adding in a few new insights.
We establish the various properties as well as diverse relations of the ascent and descent spectra for bounded linear operators. We specially focus on the theory of subspectrum. Furthermore, we construct a new concept of convergence for…
In this paper, we introduce and study the following problem and its further generalizations: given two finite collections of sets in a normed space, find a ball whose center lies in a given constraint set with the smallest radius that…
In this paper, we study the scattering theory of a class of continuum Schr\"{o}dinger operators with random sparse potentials. The existence and completeness of wave operators are proven by establishing the uniform boundedness of modified…
Stick graphs are intersection graphs of horizontal and vertical line segments that all touch a line of slope -1 and lie above this line. De Luca et al. [GD'18] considered the recognition problem of stick graphs when no order is given…
Suppose that $C$ is a bounded, convex subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$, and that $P_1, \dots, P_k$ are planks which cover $C$ in respective directions $v_1, \dots, v_k$ and with widths $w_1, \dots, w_k$. In 1951, Bang conjectured that the sum of…
The dispute about the well-known 1D vibrating string model and its solutions, known as The Vibrating String Controversy, spanned the whole of 1700s and involved a group of the most eminent scientists of the time. After that, the model stood…
We study the power of the bounded-width consistency algorithm in the context of the fixed-template Promise Constraint Satisfaction Problem (PCSP). Our main technical finding is that the template of every PCSP that is solvable in bounded…
The difficulty for solving ill-posed linear operator equations in Hilbert space is reflected by the strength of ill-posedness of the governing operator, and the inherent solution smoothness. In this study we focus on the ill-posedness of…
In this paper we obtain second- and first-order optimality conditions of Kuhn-Tucker type and Fritz John one for weak efficiency in the vector problem with inequality constraints. In the necessary conditions we suppose that the objective…
We demonstrate that being a hyperbolicity preserver does not imply monotonicity for infinite order differential operators on $\mathbb{R}[x]$, thereby settling a recent conjecture in the negative. We also give some sufficient conditions for…
We present a first exact study on higher-dimensional packing problems with order constraints. Problems of this type occur naturally in applications such as logistics or computer architecture and can be interpreted as higher-dimensional…
