We introduce the notion of characteristic function of a quaternionic matrix, whose roots are the left eigenvalues. We prove that for all $2\times 2$ matrices and for $3\times 3$ matrices having some zero entry outside the diagonal there is…
A Lie-Hamilton system is a nonautonomous system of first-order ordinary differential equations describing the integral curves of a $t$-dependent vector field taking values in a finite-dimensional real Lie algebra of Hamiltonian vector…
An inhomogeneous linear differential equation Ly=f over a global differential field can have a formal solution for each place without having a global solution. The vector space lgl(L) measures this phenomenon. This space is interpreted in…
Matrix-valued polynomials in any finite number of freely noncommuting variables that enjoy certain canonical partial convexity properties are characterized, via an algebraic certificate, in terms of Linear Matrix Inequalities and Bilinear…
Let X be a locally compact Abelian group. We consider linear forms of independent random variables with values in X. In doing so, one of the coefficients of the linear forms is a random variable with a Bernoulli distribution. For some…
We show that for any semilinear partial differential equation of order m, the infinitesimals of the independent variables depend only on the independent variables and, if m>1 and the equation is also linear in its derivatives of order m-1…
This paper proves local-global principles for Galois cohomology groups over function fields $F$ of curves that are defined over a complete discretely valued field. We show in particular that such principles hold for $H^n(F, Z/mZ(n-1))$, for…
For a Lie algebra ${\mathcal L}$ with basis $\{x_1,x_2,\cdots,x_n\}$, its associated characteristic polynomial $Q_{{\mathcal L}}(z)$ is the determinant of the linear pencil $z_0I+z_1\text{ad} x_1+\cdots +z_n\text{ad} x_n.$ This paper shows…
For a polynomial in several variables depending on some parameters, we discuss some results to the effect that for almost all values of the parameters the polynomial is irreducible. In particular we recast in this perspective some results…
We consider a polynomial $P\in \mathbb{R}[x_{1},\cdots, x_{d}]$ of degree $ \delta $ that depends non-trivially on each of $x_1,...,x_d$ with $d\geq 2$. For any integer $t$ with $2\leq t\leq d$, any natural number $n \in \mathbb{N}$, and…
We exhibit explicit expressions, in terms of components, of discriminants, determinants, characteristic polynomials and polynomial identities for matrices of higher rank. We define permutation tensors and in term of them we construct…
The main theme of the article is the study of discrete systems of material points subjected to constraints not only of a geometric type (holonomic constraints) but also of a kinematic type (nonholonomic constraints). The setting up of the…
Several variants of linear logic have been proposed to characterize complexity classes in the proofs-as-programs correspondence. Light linear logic (LLL) ensures a polynomial bound on reduction time, and characterizes in this way polynomial…
We consider a linear algebra approach to establishing a discrete comparison principle for a nonmonotone class of quasilinear elliptic partial differential equations. In the absence of a lower order term, we require local conditions on the…
Nonlocality is a distinctive feature of quantum theory, which has been extensively studied for decades. It is found that the uncertainty principle determines the nonlocality of quantum mechanics. Here we show that various degrees of…
Given a probability measure on a finitely generated group, the local limit problem consists in finding asymptotics of $p_n(e,e)$, the probability that the random walk at time $n$ is at the origin. We give the classification of all possible…
Let $p$ be a multilinear polynomial in several non-commuting variables with coefficients in an arbitrary field $K$. Kaplansky conjectured that for any $n$, the image of $p$ evaluated on the set $M_n(K)$ of $n$ by $n$ matrices is either…
The Lie-Hamilton approach for $t$-dependent Hamiltonians is extended to cover the so-called nonlinear Lie-Hamilton systems, which are no longer related to a linear $t$-dependent combination of a basis of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra of…
Recently it was shown that it is undecidable whether a term rewrite system can be proved terminating by a polynomial interpretation in the natural numbers. In this paper we show that this is also the case when restricting the…
We study the relationship between the local and global Galois theory of function fields over a complete discretely valued field. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for local separable extensions to descend to global extensions, and…
