In this short note we deal with a constructive scheme to decompose a continuous family of matrices $A(\rho)$ asymptotically as $\rho\to0$ into blocks corresponding to groups of eigenvalues of the limit matrix A(0). We also discuss the…
A method of ``blocking'' triangulations that rests on the self-similarity feature of dynamically triangulated random manifolds is proposed. The method is used to define the renormalization group for random geometries. As an illustration,…
A foundational theorem of Laman provides a counting characterisation of the finite simple graphs whose generic bar-joint frameworks in two dimensions are infinitesimally rigid. Recently a Laman-type characterisation was obtained for…
In this paper, we prove the restricted isometry property of block diagonal random matrices with elements from $\varphi$-sub-Gaussian variables, which extends the previously known results for the sub-Gaussian case. A crucial ingredient of…

This paper gives an explicit structure theorem for the symmetric group acting on the symmetric algebra of its natural module. Let $G$ be the symmetric group on $x_1,..., x_n$ and let $d_i$ be the $i^{\text{th}}$ elementary symmetric…
Properties of a given symmetry group G are very important in investigation of a physical system invariant under its action. In the case of finite spin systems (magnetic rings, some planar macromolecules) the symmetry group is isomorphic…
The inverse of the stiffness matrix of the time-harmonic Maxwell equation with perfectly conducting boundary conditions is approximated in the blockwise low-rank format of ${\mathcal H}$-matrices. We prove that root exponential convergence…
The orthogonal groups are a series of simple Lie groups associated to symmetric bilinear forms. There is no analogous series associated to symmetric trilinear forms. We introduce an infinite dimensional group-like object that can be viewed…
Under a suitable notion of equivalence of integral densities we prove a $\Gamma$-closure theorem for integral functionals: The limit of a sequence of $\Gamma$-convergent families of such functionals is again a $\Gamma$-convergent family.…
A 2-dimensional direction-length framework is a collection of points in the plane which are linked by pairwise constraints that fix the direction or length of the line segments joining certain pairs of points. We represent it as a pair…
For a matrix *-algebra B, consider the matrix *-algebra A consisting of the symmetric tensors in the n-fold tensor product of B. Examples of such algebras in coding theory include the Bose-Mesner algebra and Terwilliger algebra of the…
Given a two-dimensional conformal field theory with a global symmetry, we propose a method to implement an orbifold construction by taking orbits of the modular group. For the case of cyclic symmetries we find that this approach always…
This paper introduces the notion of weak rigidity to characterize a framework by pairwise inner products of inter-agent displacements. Compared to distance-based rigidity, weak rigidity requires fewer constrained edges in the graph to…
This paper addresses the challenging issue of symmetry in mixed-integer convex optimization problems, which frequently arise in real-world applications such as the unit commitment problem. Although variable aggregation techniques have been…
We give a complete proof of a propagation theorem of multiplicity-free property from fibers to spaces of global sections for holomorphic vector bundles. The propagation theorem is formalised in three ways, aiming for producing various…
Magnetic gels and elastomers are promising candidates to construct reversibly excitable soft actuators, triggered from outside by magnetic fields. These magnetic fields induce or alter the magnetic interactions between discrete rigid…
We construct analogues of FI-modules where the role of the symmetric group is played by the general linear groups and the symplectic groups over finite rings and prove basic structural properties such as Noetherianity. Applications include…
Drawing analogies with block spin techniques used to study continuum limits in critical phenomena, we attempt to block up D-branes by averaging over near neighbour elements of their (in general noncommuting) matrix coordinates, i.e.\ in a…
