Recently Kosaki proved an inequality for matrices that can be seen as a kind of new uncertainty principle. Independently, the same result was proved by Yanagi, Furuichi and Kuriyama. The new bound is given in terms of Wigner-Yanase-Dyson…
We introduce two uncertainty relations based on the state-dependent norm of commutators, utilizing generalizations of the B\"ottcher-Wenzel inequality. The first relation is mathematically proven, while the second, tighter relation is…
It is conjectured since long that for any convex body $K \in \mathbb{R}^n$ there exists a point in the interior of $K$ which belongs to at least $2n$ normals from different points on the boundary of $K$. The conjecture is known to be true…
In this paper, we present a more complete version of the minimax theorem established in [7]. As a consequence, we get, for instance, the following result: Let $X$ be a compact, not singleton subset of a normed space $(E,\|\cdot\|)$ and let…
A certain inequality conjectured by Vershynin is studied. It is proved that for any $n$-dimensional symmetric convex body $K$ with inradius $w$ and $\gamma_{n}(K) \leq 1/2$ there is $\gamma_{n}(sK) \leq (2s)^{w^{2}/4}\gamma_{n}(K)$ for any…
We show that the Friedlander-Mazur conjecture holds for a complex smooth projective variety X of dimension three implies the standard conjectures hold for X. This together with a result of Friedlander yields the equivalence of the two…
We prove that for any two centrally-symmetric convex shapes $K,L \subset \mathbb{R}^2$, the function $t \mapsto |e^t K \cap L|$ is log-concave. This extends a result of Cordero-Erausquin, Fradelizi and Maurey in the two dimensional case.…
Let $z \in \mathbb{C}^n$, and let $A(z,\bar{z})$ be a real valued diagonal bihomogeneous Hermitian polynomial such that $A(z,\bar{z})\|z\|^2$ is a sum of squares, where $\|z\|$ denotes the Euclidean norm of $z$. In this paper, we provide an…
We consider the 2-dimensional random matching problem in $\mathbb{R}^2.$ In a challenging paper, Caracciolo et. al. arXiv:1402.6993 on the basis of a subtle linearization of the Monge Ampere equation, conjectured that the expected value of…
Banderier, Marchal, and Wallner considered Young tableaux with walls, which are similar to standard Young tableaux, except that local decreases are allowed at some walls. In this work, we prove a conjecture of Fuchs and Yu concerning the…
We provide a short proof of the intriguing characterisation of the convex order given by Wiesel and Zhang.
Let L_n be the n-dimensional Lorentz cone. A linear map M from R^m to R^n is called Lorentz-positive if M[L_m] is contained in L_n. We extend the notion of concurrence, which was initially introduced to quantify the entanglement of…
The basic disentanglement theorem established by the present authors states that estimates on a weighted geometric mean over (convex) families of functions can be disentangled into quantitatively linked estimates on each family separately.…
In this paper we give alternate proofs of some well-known matrix inequalities. In particular, we show that under certain conditions the inequality holds \begin{align}\sum \limits_{\lambda_i\in \mathrm{Spec}(ab^{T})}\mathrm{min}\{\log…
In this paper, we show almost global existence of small solutions to the Cauchy problem for symmetric system of wave equations with quadratic (in 3D) or cubic (in 2D) nonlinear terms and multiple propagation speeds. To measure the size of…
Describing the equality conditions of the Alexandrov--Fenchel inequality has been a major open problem for decades. We prove that in the case of convex polytopes, this description is not in the polynomial hierarchy unless the polynomial…
The Merino-Welsh conjectures say that subject to conditions, there is an inequality among the Tutte-polynomial evaluations $T(M;2,0)$, $T(M;0,2)$, and $T(M;1,1)$. We present three results on a Merino-Welsh conjecture. These results are…
In this work, a refinement of the Cauchy--Schwarz inequality in inner product space is proved. A more general refinement of the Kato's inequality or the so called mixed Schwarz inequality is established. Refinements of some famous numerical…
We prove that the criterion for Markov equivalence provided by Zhao et al. (2005) may involve a set of features of a graph that is exponential in the number of vertices.
We present an Oppenheim type determinantal inequality for positive definite block matrices. Recently, Lin [Linear Algebra Appl. 452 (2014) 1--6] proved a remarkable extension of Oppenheim type inequality for block matrices, which solved a…
