Bordered and framed Toeplitz/Hankel determinants have the same structure as Toeplitz/Hankel determinants except in small number of matrix rows and/or columns. We review these structured determinants and their connections to orthogonal…
In this paper we characterise the indeterminate case by the eigenvalues of the Hankel matrices being bounded below by a strictly positive constant. An explicit lower bound is given in terms of the orthonormal polynomials and we find…
Caffarelli, Kohn and Nirenberg considered in 1984 the interpolation inequalities \[\||x|^{\gamma_1}u\|_{L^s(\mathbb{R}^n)}\le C\||x|^{\gamma_2}\nabla u\|_{L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)}^a\||x|^{\gamma_3}u\|_{L^q(\mathbb{R}^n)}^{1-a} \] in dimension…
We compute the asymptotics of the determinants of certain $n\times n$ Toeplitz + Hankel matrices $T_n(a)+H_n(b)$ as $n\to\infty$ with symbols of Fisher-Hartwig type. More specifically we consider the case where $a$ has zeros and poles and…
In this paper we study the Nevanlinna-Pick matrix interpolation problem in the Carath\'eodory class with infinite data (both in the nondegenerate and degenerate cases). We develop the Sz\"okefalvi-Nagy and Kor\'anyi operator approach to…
We study global minimizers of an energy functional arising as a thin sample limit in the theory of light-matter interaction in nematic liquid crystals. We show that depending on the parameters various defects are predicted by the model. In…
This paper deals with (1) the truncated matrix Hamburger moment problem from the point of view of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces of vector valued entire functions of the kind introduced and extensively studied by Louis de Branges and (2)…
The Kochen-Specker theorem, Bell inequalities, and several other tests that were designed to rule out hidden-variable theories, assume the existence of observables having infinitely sharp eigenvalues. A paradigmatic example is spin-1/2. It…
In this article, we consider certain matricial domains that are naturally associated to a given domain of the complex plane. A particular example of such domains is the spectral unit ball. We present several results for these matricial…
Let $(s_n)_{n\ge 0}$ denote an indeterminate Hamburger moment sequence and let $\mathcal H=\{s_{m+n}\}$ be the corresponding positive definite Hankel matrix. We consider the question if there exists an infinite symmetric matrix $\mathcal…
We solve a three point Nevanlinna-Pick problem in the Euclidean ball. In particular, we determine a class of rational functions that interpolate this problem.
An appropriate rational approximation to the eigenfunction of the Schr\"{o}dinger equation for anharmonic oscillators enables one to obtain the eigenvalue accurately as the limit of a sequence of roots of Hankel determinants. The…
Harary and Schwenk posed the problem forty years ago: Which graphs have distinct adjacency eigenvalues? In this paper, we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for an Hermitian matrix with simple spectral radius and distinct…
Three boundary Nevanlinna-Pick interpolation problems at finitely many points are formulated for generalized Schur functions. For each problem, the set of all solutions is parametrized in terms of a linear fractional transformation with a…
We review the asymptotic behavior of a class of Toeplitz (as well as related Hankel and Toeplitz + Hankel) determinants which arise in integrable models and other contexts. We discuss Szego, Fisher-Hartwig asymptotics, and how a transition…
About ten years ago, Schmuckenschl\"ager proved that the lowest eigenvalue of Dirichlet Laplacian for the intersection of two balls (i.e., convex, symmetric and compact subsets of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with non-empty interior) is less than the sum…
We prove a conjecture by Van Dam and Sotirov on the smallest eigenvalue of (distance-$j$) Hamming graphs and a conjecture by Karloff on the smallest eigenvalue of (distance-$j$) Johnson graphs. More generally, we study the smallest…
We employ the Riemann-Hilbert problem for solution of the initial-boundary value problems for nearly integrable equations on the half line which have important applications in physics. The detailed derivation of the integrable and…
We consider a matrix pencil whose coefficients depend on a positive parameter $\epsilon$, and have asymptotic equivalents of the form $a\epsilon^A$ when $\epsilon$ goes to zero, where the leading coefficient $a$ is complex, and the leading…
We present an alternative proof of the result by P. Gerard and S. Grellier, stating that given two real sequences $(\lambda_n)_{n=1}^\infty$, $(\mu_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ satisfying the intertwining relations \[ |\lambda_1| > |\mu_1| >…
