Motivated by a problem of Halmos, we obtain a canonical decomposition for complex matrices which are unitarily equivalent to their transpose (UET). Surprisingly, the naive assertion that a matrix is UET if and only if it is unitarily…

The $2n$ dimensional manifold with two mutually commutative operators of differentiation is introduced. Nontrivial multidimensional integrable systems connected with arbitrary graded (semisimple) algebras are constructed. The general…

We develop a unified framework for constructing matrix approximations to the convolution operator of Volterra type defined by functions that are approximated using classical orthogonal polynomials on $[-1, 1]$. The numerically stable…

We complete characterization of bijections preserving commutators (PC-maps) in the group of unitriangular matrices $UT(n,F)$ over a field $F$, where $n$ is a natural number or infinity. PC-maps were recently described up to almost identity…

We introduce a weakened notion of norm attainment for bounded linear operators between Banach spaces which we call \emph{quasi norm attaining operators}. An operator $T\colon X \longrightarrow Y$ between the Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$ is…

Let K be a (commutative) field, and U and V be finite-dimensional vector spaces over K. Let S be a linear subspace of the space L(U,V) of all linear operators from U to V. A map F from S to V is called range-compatible when F(s) belongs to…

Let $M$ be a connected, noncompact, complete Riemannian manifold, consider the operator $L=\DD +\nn V$ for some $V\in C^2(M)$ with $\exp[V]$ integrable w.r.t. the Riemannian volume element. This paper studies the existence of the spectral…

For any square-summable commuting family $(A_i)_{i\in I}$ of complex $n\times n$ matrices there is a normal commuting family $(B_i)_i$ no farther from it, in squared normalized $\ell^2$ distance, than the diameter of the numerical range of…

Our main result is a theorem saying that a bounded operator $A$ on a Hilbert space belongs to a certain set associated with its self-commutator $[A^*,A]$, provided that $A-zI$ can be approximated by invertible operators for all complex…

Let $\textrm{Mat}_2(\mathbb{R})$ be the set of $2 \times 2$ matrices with real entries. For any $\varepsilon>0$ and any finitely--supported probability measure $\mu$ on $\textrm{Mat}_2(\mathbb{R})$, we prove that either \[ T(\mu) = \sum_{X,…

We consider a 3-dimensional Riemannian manifold V with a metric g and an affinor structure q. The local coordinates of these tensors are circulant matrices. In V we define an almost conformal transformation. Using that definition we…

The relative distance between eigenvalues of the compression of a not necessarily semibounded self-adjoint operator to a closed subspace and some of the eigenvalues of the original operator in a gap of the essential spectrum is considered.…

We construct and study a two-parameter family of matrix product operators of bond dimension $D=4$. The operators $M(x,y)$ act on $({\mathbb C}_2)^{\otimes N}$, i.e., the space of states of a spin-$1/2$ chain of length $N$. For the…

We introduce a Morita type equivalence: two operator algebras $A$ and $B$ are called strongly $\Delta $-equivalent if they have completely isometric representations $\alpha $ and $\beta $ respectively and there exists a ternary ring of…

We prove an equivalence between the following notions: (i) unitary M\"obius vertex algebras, and (ii) Wightman conformal field theories on the circle (with finite-dimensional conformal weight spaces) satisfying an additional condition that…

We consider the spectrum of the almost Mathieu operator $H_\alpha$ with frequency $\alpha$ and in the case of the critical coupling. Let an irrational $\alpha$ be such that $|\alpha-p_n/q_n|<c q_n^{-\varkappa}$, where $p_n/q_n$,…
