We solve the problem of determining the Weierstrass structure of a regular matrix pencil obtained by a low rank perturbation of another regular matrix pencil. We apply the result to find necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence…
We study problems associated with an operator pencil, i.e., a pair of operators on Banach spaces. Two natural problems to consider are linear constrained differential equations and the description of the generalized spectrum. The main tool…
Virasoro irregular conformal block with arbitrary rank is obtained for the classical limit or equivalently Nekrasov-Shatashvili limit using the beta-deformed irregular matrix model (Penner-type matrix model for the irregular conformal…
To understand the solution of a linear, time-invariant differential-algebraic equation, one must analyze a matrix pencil (A,E) with singular E. Even when this pencil is stable (all its finite eigenvalues fall in the left-half plane), the…
Let $G$ be a finite group of even order, let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $2$, and let $B$ be a block of the group algebra $kG$ which is of domestic representation type. Up to splendid Morita equivalence, precisely…
We consider the quasiconformal dilatation of projective transformations of the real projective plane. For non-affine transformations, the contour lines of dilatation form a hyperbolic pencil of circles, and these are the only circles that…
The results on the inversion of convolution operators as well as Toeplitz (and block Toeplitz) matrices in the $1$-D (one-dimensional) case are classical and have numerous applications. Last year, we considered the $2$-D case of…
This paper explores the structure of bi-Lagrangian Grassmanians for pencils of $2$-forms on real or complex vector spaces. We reduce the analysis to the pencils whose Jordan-Kronecker Canonical Form consists of Jordan blocks with the same…
We introduce an eigenvalue-preserving transformation algorithm from the generalized eigenvalue problem by matrix pencil of the upper and the lower bidiagonal matrices into a standard eigenvalue problem while preserving sparsity, using the…
We study normal forms for families of area-preserving maps which have a fixed point with neutral multipliers -1 or +1 at epsilon=0. Our study covers both the orientation-preserving and orientation-reversing cases. In these cases Birkhoff…
We find normal and seminormal forms for a sl(3)-valued zero curvature representation (ZCR). We prove a theorem about reducibility of ZCR's, which says that if one of the matrix in a ZCR (A,B) falls to a proper subalgebra of sl(3), then the…
A connected combinatorial 2-manifold is called degree-regular if each of its vertices have the same degree. A connected combinatorial 2-manifold is called weakly regular if it has a vertex-transitive automorphism group. Clearly, a weakly…
The standard way of solving a polynomial eigenvalue problem associated with a matrix polynomial starts by embedding the matrix coefficients of the polynomial into a matrix pencil, known as a strong linearization. This process transforms the…
Bernstein polynomials, long a staple of approximation theory and computational geometry, have also increasingly become of interest in finite element methods. Many fundamental problems in interpolation and approximation give rise to…
We show that there are a finite number of possible pictures for a surface in a tetrahedron with local index $n$. Combined with previous results, this establishes that any topologically minimal surface can be transformed into one with a…
This work studies Liouville conformal blocks of irregular type with the insertion of at least one level-$3$ degenerate field admitting a Fibonacci fusion rule. We algebraically derive the corresponding third-order BPZ equations for regular…

Transversal structures (also known as regular edge labelings) are combinatorial structures defined over 4-connected plane triangulations with quadrangular outer-face. They have been intensively studied and used for many applications…
