Let $V$ be a vector space over a field $\mathbb F$ with scalar product given by a nondegenerate sesquilinear form whose matrix is diagonal in some basis. If $\mathbb F=\mathbb C$, then we give canonical matrices of isometric and selfadjoint…

There is a concept in linear algebra called a tridiagonal pair. The concept was motivated by the theory of $Q$-polynomial distance-regular graphs. We give a tutorial introduction to tridiagonal pairs, working with a special case as a…

We prove that an alternating e-form on a vector space over a quasi-algebraically closed field always has a singular (e-1)-dimensional subspace, provided that the dimension of the space is strictly greater than e. Here an (e-1)-dimensional…

Given a compact and complete metric space $X$ with several continuous transformations $T_1, T_2, \ldots T_H: X \to X,$ we find sufficient conditions for the existence of a point $x\in X$ such that $(x,x,\ldots,x)\in X^H$ has dense orbit for…

Let $q$ be a prime power and $V\cong{\mathbb F}_q^n$. A $t$-$(n,k,\lambda)_q$ design, or simply a subspace design, is a pair ${\mathcal D}=(V,{\mathcal B})$, where ${\mathcal B}$ is a subset of the set of all $k$-dimensional subspaces of…

For an element in an algebra-valued *-noncommutative probability space, equivalent conditions for algebra-valued R-diagonality (a notion introduced by Sniady and Speicher) are proved. Formal power series relations involving the moments and…

A banded matrix is a real square matrix where nonzero entries appear around the main diagonal. In this article, we consider linear complementarity properties of (variants) of banded matrices. Focusing on triangular matrices and the newly…

Let $A$ be a bounded, injective and self-adjoint linear operator on a complex separable Hilbert space. We prove that there is a pure isometry, $V$, so that $AV>0$ and $A$ is Hankel with respect to $V$, i.e. $V^*A = AV$, if and only if $A$…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q^d$ be the $d$-dimensional vector space over the finite field with $q$ elements. For a subset $E\subseteq \mathbb{F}_q^d$ and a fixed nonzero $t\in \mathbb{F}_q$, let $\mathcal{H}_t(E)=\{h_y: y\in E\}$, where $h_y$ is the…

Let $\mathcal{A}=(A_{1},...,A_{n},...)$ be a finite or infinite sequence of $2\times2$ matrices with entries in an integral domain. We show that, except for a very special case, $\mathcal{A}$ is (simultaneously) triangularizable if and only…

This paper is devoted to studying $R$-diagonal and $\eta$-diagonal pairs of random variables. We generalize circular elements to the bi-free setting, defining bi-circular element pairs of random variables, which provide examples of…

We prove a version of Schur--Weyl duality over finite fields. We prove that for any field $k$, if $k$ has at least $r+1$ elements, then Schur--Weyl duality holds for the $r$th tensor power of a finite dimensional vector space $V$. Moreover,…

A Banach space $X$ is said to have the Daugavet property if every rank-one operator $T:X\longrightarrow X$ satisfies $\|Id + T\| = 1 + \|T\|$. We give geometric characterizations of this property in the settings of $C^*$-algebras,…

In relativistic potential models of quarkonia based on a Dirac-type of equation with a local potential there is a sharp distinction between a linear potential V which is vector-like and one which is scalar-like: There are normalizable…

Let (A,B) and (C,D) denote Leonard pairs on V. We say these pairs are adjacent whenever each basis for V which is standard for (A,B) (resp. (C,D)) is split for (C,D) (resp. (A,B)). Our main results are as follows: Theorem 1. There exists at…
