We describe those reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces of holomorphic functions on domains in ${\Bbb C}^d$ for which an analogue of the Nevanlinna-Pick theorem holds, in other words when the existence of a (possibly matrix-valued) function in…

We compute asymptotics for Hankel determinants and orthogonal polynomials with respect to a discontinuous Gaussian weight, in a critical regime where the discontinuity is close to the edge of the associated equilibrium measure support.…

Let $U$ and $V$ be two independent $N$ by $N$ random matrices that are distributed according to Haar measure on $U(N)$. Let $\Sigma$ be a non-negative deterministic $N$ by $N$ matrix. The single ring theorem [26] asserts that the empirical…

We provide a short argument to establish a Beurling-Lax-Halmos theorem for reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces whose kernel has a complete Nevanlinna-Pick factor. We also record factorization results for pairs of nested invariant subspaces.

Results are obtained for two minimization problems: $$I_k(c)=\inf \{\lambda_k(\Omega): \Omega\ \textup{open, convex in}\ \mathbb{R}^m,\ \mathcal{T}(\Omega)= c \},$$ and $$J_k(c)=\inf\{\lambda_k(\Omega): \Omega\ \textup{quasi-open in}\…

Empirical, theoretical and historical aspects of Post's "problem of tag" from 1921 are explored. Evidence of strong computational irreducibility is found. Despite their deterministic origin, the lengths of successive sequences generated…

Our starting point is a basic problem in Hermite interpolation theory, namely determining the least degree of a homogeneous polynomial that vanishes to some specified order at every point of a given finite set. We solve this problem if the…

We obtain large $n$ asymptotics of $n \times n$ Hankel determinants whose weight has a one-cut regular potential and Fisher-Hartwig singularities. We restrict our attention to the case where the associated equilibrium measure possesses…

The Kahane--Salem--Zygmund inequality is a probabilistic result that guarantees the existence of special matrices with entries $1$ and $-1$ generating unimodular $m$-linear forms $A_{m,n}:\ell_{p_{1}}^{n}\times…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for solving the spectral Nevanlinna--Pick lifting problem. This reduces the spectral Nevanlinna--Pick problem to a jet interpolation problem into the symmetrized polydisc.

We characterize the biorthogonal polynomials that appear in the theory of coupled random matrices via a Riemann-Hilbert problem. Our Riemann-Hilbert problem is different from the ones that were proposed recently by Ercolani and McLaughlin,…

Let $K_n$ be the set of all $n\times n$ lower triangular (0,1)-matrices with each diagonal element equal to $1$, $L_n = \{ YY^T: Y\in K_n\}$ and let \begin{equation*} c_n = \min_{Z\in L_n} \left\lbrace \mu_n^{(1)}(Z):\mu_n^{(1)} (Z) \text{…

The numerical solution of eigenvalue problems is essential in various application areas of scientific and engineering domains. In many problem classes, the practical interest is only a small subset of eigenvalues so it is unnecessary to…

In this paper we obtain a noncommutative multivariable analogue of the classical Nevanlinna-Pick interpolation problem for analytic functions with positive real parts on the open unit disc. As consequences, we deduce some results concerning…

In the field of orthogonal polynomials theory, the classical Markov theorem shows that for determinate moment problems the spectral measure is under control of the polynomials asymptotics. The situation is completely different for…

We consider compact Hankel operators realized in $ \ell^2(\mathbb Z_+)$ as infinite matrices $\Gamma$ with matrix elements $h(j+k)$. Roughly speaking, we show that if $h(j)\sim (b_{1}+ (-1)^j b_{-1}) j^{-1}(\log j)^{-\alpha}$ as $j\to…

We introduce a "dual-space approach" to mixed Nevanlinna-Pick/Carath\'eodory-Schur interpolation in Banach spaces X of holomorphic functions on the disk. Our approach can be viewed as complementary to the well-known commutant lifting…

The eigenvector-dependent nonlinear eigenvalue problem (NEPv) $A(P)V=V\Lambda$, where the columns of $V\in\mathbb{C}^{n\times k}$ are orthonormal, $P=VV^{\mathrm{H}}$, $A(P)$ is Hermitian, and $\Lambda=V^{\mathrm{H}}A(P)V$, arises in many…

Given a Hermitian line bundle $L\to M$ over a closed, oriented Riemannian manifold $M$, we study the asymptotic behavior, as $\epsilon\to 0$, of couples $(u_\epsilon,\nabla_\epsilon)$ critical for the rescalings \begin{align*}…
