In this article, we compute the Schur multiplier, non-abelian tensor square and exterior square of non-abelian $p$-groups of order $p^5$. As an application we determine the capability of groups of order $p^5$.
We study parity decision trees for Boolean functions. The motivation of our study is the log-rank conjecture for XOR functions and its connection to Fourier analysis and parity decision tree complexity. Let f be a Boolean function with…
We obtain a sufficient and necessary condition for a finite group to act effectively on a closed flat manifold. Let \ $G=E_{n}(R)$, $EU_{n}(R,\Lambda ),$ $\mathrm{SAut}(F_{n})$ or $\mathrm{SOut}(F_{n}).$ As applications, we prove that when…
We give relatively simple sufficient conditions on a Fourier multiplier, so that it maps functions with the H$\ddot{o}$lder property with respect to a part of the variables to functions with the H$o$lder property with respect to all…
We describe an effective method for computing the topological degree of continuous functions $R:S^2 \to S^2$, where $S^2$ is the Riemann sphere. Our approach generalizes the degree formula for rational functions of complex polynomials,…
Let G be a second countable, locally compact group and let f be a continuous Herz-Schur multiplier on G. Our main result gives the existence of a (not necessarily uniformly bounded) strongly continuous representation on a Hilbert space,…
While many bounds have been proved for partial trace inequalities over the last decades for a large variety of quantities, recent problems in quantum information theory demand sharper bounds. In this work, we study optimal bounds for…
Cylindric Schur functions are a family of symmetric functions that generalize skew Schur functions. We give a short proof that skew cylindric Schur functions expand positively in terms of non-skew cylindric Schur functions. In particular,…
We study Fourier multipliers with logarithmic oscillation at high frequency. The guiding example is the radial symbol \[ m_{\gamma,\beta}(\xi) = \bigl(\log(e+|\xi|)\bigr)^{-\beta} e^{i(\log(e+|\xi|))^\gamma}, \qquad \gamma>1, \] whose…
We establish a strong link between two open problems: determining the Reidemeister spectrum of free nilpotent groups and determining the coefficients in the Schur expansion of plethysms of Schur functions. Specifically, we show that the…
We study a multi-symmetric generalization of the classical Schur functions called the multi-symmetric Schur functions. These functions form an integral basis for the ring of multi-symmetric functions indexed by tuples of partitions and are…
We detail an explicit construction of ordinary irreducible representations for the family of finite groups $SL_2({\mathbb Z} /p^n {\mathbb Z})$ for odd primes $p$ and $n\geq 2$. For $n=2$, the construction is a complete set of irreducible…
We find that if a Fourier multiplier is continuous from $L^{\Phi_1}$ to $L^{\Phi_2}$, then it is also continuous from $M^{\Phi_1,\Psi}$ to $M^{\Phi_2,\Psi}$, where $\Phi_1,\Phi_2,\Psi$ are quasi-Young functions and $\Phi_1$ fulfills the…
A formula for the norm of a bilinear Schur multiplier acting from the Cartesian product $\mathcal S^2\times \mathcal S^2$ of two copies of the Hilbert-Schmidt classes into the trace class $\mathcal S^1$ is established in terms of linear…
We study spherical functions on the space isomorphic to $U(2n)/(U(n)\times U(n))$ over a $p$-adic field; those functional equations with respect to the action of the Weyl group, the location of possible poles and zeros, explicit formulas,…
We call a matrix blocky if, up to row and column permutations, it can be obtained from an identity matrix by repeatedly applying one of the following operations: duplicating a row, duplicating a column, or adding a zero row or column.…
Measures with values in the set of sesquilinear forms on a subspace of a Hilbert space are of interest in quantum mechanics, since they can be interpreted as observables with only a restricted set of possible measurement preparations. In…
We consider the expansion of the square of a complete homogeneous function $h_\lambda$, or of an elementary symmetric function $e_\lambda$, in the basis of Schur functions. This square also decomposes into two plethysms, $s_2[h_\lambda]$…
Let $f$ be an entire almost periodic function with zeros in a horizontal strip of finite width; for example, any exponential polynomial with purely imaginary exponents is such a function. Let $\mu$ be the measure on the set of zeros of $f$…
Starting from the Verma module of U_q sl(2) we consider the evaluation module for affine U_q sl(2) and discuss its crystal limit (q=0). There exists an associated integrable statistical mechanics model on a square lattice defined in terms…
