Let $A$ be a fixed complex matrix and let $u,v$ be two vectors. The eigenvalues of matrices $A+\tau uv^\top $ $(\tau\in\mathbb{R})$ form a system of intersecting curves. The dependence of the intersections on the vectors $u,v$ is studied.

The Dwyer-Fried invariants of a finite cell complex X are the subsets \Omega^i_r(X) of the Grassmannian of r-planes in H^1(X,\Q) which parametrize the regular \Z^r-covers of X having finite Betti numbers up to degree i. In previous work, we…

Let $A$ and $B$ be finite subsets of $\mathbb{C}$ such that $|B|=C|A|$. We show the following variant of the sum product phenomenon: If $|AB|<\alpha|A|$ and $\alpha \ll \log |A|$, then $|kA+lB|\gg |A|^k|B|^l$. This is an application of a…

This paper is concerned with certain invariant random processes (called factors of IID) on infinite trees. Given such a process, one can assign entropies to different finite subgraphs of the tree. There are linear inequalities between these…

We apply the notion of a full convex subcategory to a wide range of algebras including tilted, quasi-tilted, shod, weakly shod, left and right glued, laura, simply connected, strongly simply connected, left supported, and cluster-tilted. In…

Growing out of the initial connections between subfactors and knot theory that gave rise to the Jones polynomial, Jones' axiomatization of the standard invariant of an extremal finite index $II_1$ subfactor as a spherical $C^*$-planar…

Using the analytical expressions for the genuine eigenfunctions $\varphi_{\mu\nu}(z)$ and eigenvalues $E_{\mu,\nu}$, of open, bounded and quasi-bounded finite periodic systems, we derive the eigenfunctions space-inversion symmetry…

We introduce pseudofinite W*-probability spaces. These are W*-probability spaces that are elementarily equivalent to Ocneanu ultraproducts of finite-dimensional von Neumann algebras equipped with arbitrary faithful normal states. We are…

One of the earliest invariants introduced in the study of finite von Neumann algebras is the property Gamma of Murray and von Neumann. In this note we prove that it is not possible to classify separable $\rm{II}_1$ factors satisfying the…

We construct irreducible hyperfinite subfactors of index 6 with a prescribed fundamental group from a large family containing all countable and many uncountable subgroups of R_+. We also prove that there are unclassifiably many irreducible…

We show the irredundancy, necessity and sufficiency of inequalities corresponding to intersections whose ``Witten Bundle'' is polyrigid for the product of unitary matrices problem.

We prove that assuming suitable cardinal arithmetic, if B is a Boolean algebra every homomorphic image of which is isomorphic to a factor, then B has locally small density. We also prove that for an (infinite) Boolean algebra B, the number…

Nathanial Brown introduced a convex-like structure on the set of unitary equivalence classes of unital *-homomorphisms of a separable type II_1 factor into R^\omega (ultrapower of the hyperfinite factor). The goal of this paper is to…

In this paper, we study the homogeneous components of the Chern--Schwartz--MacPherson (CSM) classes of Schubert cells. We prove that, under suitable conditions, each such component is represented by an irreducible subvariety. In particular,…

We give a characteristic-free proof that general codimension-1 Schubert varieties meet transversally in a Grassmannian and in some related varieties. Thus the corresponding intersection numbers computed in the Chow (and quantum Chow) rings…

Let $(F,J,\omega)$ be an almost K\"ahler manifold, $\alpha$ a $J$-holomorphic action of a compact Lie group $\hat K$ on $F$, and $K$ a closed normal subgroup of $\hat K$ which leaves $\omega$ invariant. We introduce gauge theoretical…

This note studies the behavior of Euler characteristics and of intersection homology Euler characterstics under proper morphisms of algebraic (or analytic) varieties. The methods also yield, for algebraic (or analytic) varieties, formulae…

On page 43 in \cite{Po83} Sorin Popa asked whether the following property holds: \emph{If $\omega$ is a free ultrafilter on $\mathbb N$ and $\mathcal R_1\subseteq \mathcal R$ is an irreducible inclusion of hyperfinite II$_1$ factors such…

This paper deals with properties of the algebraic variety defined as the set of zeros of a "deficient" sequence of multivariate polynomials. We consider two types of varieties: ideal-theoretic complete intersections and absolutely…

In this article we prove the equivalence of certain inequalities for Riesz means of eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplacian with a classical inequality of Kac. Connections are made via integral transforms including those of Laplace,…
