The distance between convex bodies \(K, L \subseteq \R^n\) is defined as \[ d(K,L)= \inf \left\{ \lambda \ge 1: \ L-x \subseteq T (K-y) \subseteq \lambda (L-x) \right\}, \] where the infimum is taken over all \(x,y \in \R^n\) and all…

We show that the set of all possible constant diagonals of a bounded Hilbert space operator is always convex. This, in particular, answers an open question of J.-C. Bourin ($2003$). Moreover, we show that the joint numerical range of a…

For an $n\times n$ complex matrix $C$, the $C$-numerical range of a bounded linear operator $T$ acting on a Hilbert space of dimension at least $n$ is the set of complex numbers ${\rm tr}(CX^*TX)$, where $X$ is a partial isometry satisfying…

The numerical range of a bounded linear operator on a complex Banach space need not be convex unlike that on a Hilbert space. The aim of this paper is to study operators $T$ on $ \ell^2_p $ for which the numerical range is convex. We also…

An $(m,n,k,\lambda)$-relative difference set is a lifting of a $(m,k,n\lambda)$-difference set. Lam gave a table of cyclic relative difference sets with $k \leq 50$ in 1977, all of which were liftings of $(…

We study the numerical range of bounded linear operators on quaternionic Hilbert spaces and its relation with the S-spectrum. The class of complex operators on quaternionic Hilbert spaces is introduced and the upper bild of normal complex…

We derive a matrix model, under unitary similarity, of an $n$-by-$n$ matrix $A$ such that $A, A^2, \ldots, A^k$ ($k\ge 1$) are all partial isometries, which generalizes the known fact that if $A$ is a partial isometry, then it is unitarily…

Let $T$ be an operator on a Hilbert space $H$ with numerical radius $w(T)\le1$. According to a theorem of Berger and Stampfli, if $f$ is a function in the disk algebra such that $f(0)=0$, then $w(f(T))\le\|f\|_\infty$. We give a new and…

In 1967, Edmonds introduced the problem of computing the rank over the rational function field of an $n\times n$ matrix $T$ with integral homogeneous linear polynomials. In this paper, we consider the non-commutative version of Edmonds'…

Strassen's asymptotic rank conjecture [Progr. Math. 120 (1994)] claims a strong submultiplicative upper bound on the rank of a three-tensor obtained as an iterated Kronecker product of a constant-size base tensor. The conjecture, if true,…

Conditional on the extended Riemann hypothesis, we show that with high probability, the characteristic polynomial of a random symmetric $\{\pm 1\}$-matrix is irreducible. This addresses a question raised by Eberhard in recent work. The main…

Let $M$ be a compact connected manifold of dimension $n$ endowed with a conformal class $C$ of Riemannian metrics of volume one. For any integer $k\geq0$, we consider the conformal invariant $\lambda_k ^c (C)$ defined as the supremum of the…

We give a short proof that Strassen's asymptotic rank conjecture implies that for every $\varepsilon > 0$ there exists a $(3/2^{2/3} + \varepsilon)^n$-time algorithm for set cover on a universe of size $n$ with sets of bounded size. This…

Results on matrix canonical forms are used to give a complete description of the higher rank numerical range of matrices arising from the study of quantum error correction. It is shown that the set can be obtained as the intersection of…

In this paper, we prove that if $T$ is diskcyclic operator then the closed unit disk multiplied by the union of the numerical range of all iterations of $T$ is dense in $\mathcal H$. Also, if $T$ is diskcyclic operator and $|\lambda|\le 1$,…

In this paper we show that the closure of the numerical range of an $n+1$-periodic tridiagonal operator is equal to the numerical range of a $2(n+1)\times 2(n+1)$ complex matrix.

Several new verifiable conditions are established for block matrices with scalar diagonal blocks to have the numerical range equal the convex hull of at most k ellipses where k by k is the size of the smaller diagonal block. For k = 2,…

The paper studies algebraic strong shift equivalence of matrices over $n$-variable polynomial rings over a principal ideal domain $D$($n\leq 2$). It is proved that in the case $n=1$, every non-zero matrix over $D[x]$ has a full rank…

We describe here the higher rank numerical range, as defined by Choi, Kribs and Zyczkowski, of a normal operator on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space in terms of its spectral measure. This generalizes a result of Avendano for…
