We provide a characterization of two expansive dilation matrices yielding equal discrete anisotropic Triebel-Lizorkin spaces. For two such matrices $A$ and $B$, it is shown that $\dot{\mathbf{f}}^{\alpha}_{p,q}(A) =…

We employ techniques from optimal transport in order to prove decay of transfer operators associated to iterated functions systems and expanding maps, giving rise to a new proof without requiring a Doeblin-Fortet (or Lasota-Yorke)…

We establish that any even permutation from A_n moving at least [3n/4] + o(n) points is the commutator of a generating pair of A_n and a generating pair of S_n. From this we deduce an exponential lower bound on the number of systems of…

If for all $a, b$ in a group $G$, we have that $a^2b^2 = b^2a^2$ and $a^3b^3 = b^3a^3$ then does the group necessarily have to be abelian? This paper shows that the answer is affirmative for finite groups as well as certain classes of…

Subshifts are sets of colorings of $\mathbb{Z}^d$ defined by families of forbidden patterns. In a given subshift, the extender set of a finite pattern is the set of all its admissible completions. Since soficity of $\mathbb{Z}$ subshifts is…

Let K be an arbitrary (commutative) field and L be an algebraic closure of it. Let V be a linear subspace of M_n(K), with n>2. We show that if every matrix of V has at most one eigenvalue in K, then dim V<=1+n(n-1)/2. If every matrix of V…

If $i:A\subset B$ is a commutative ring extension, we show that the group $\mathcal I(A,B)$ of invertible $A$-submodules of $B$ is contracted in the sense of Bass, with $L\mathcal I(A,B)=H^0_{et}(A,i_*\mathbb Z/\mathbb Z)$. This gives a…

We show that there are {\it 13 types} of commutator algebras leading to the new closed forms of the Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff (BCH) formula $$\exp(X)\exp(Y)\exp(Z)=\exp({AX+BZ+CY+DI}) \ , $$ derived in arXiv:1502.06589, JHEP {\bf 1505}…

We consider a tuple $\Phi = (\phi_1,\ldots,\phi_m)$ of commuting maps on a finitary matroid $X$. We show that if $\Phi$ satisfies certain conditions, then for any finite set $A\subseteq X$, the rank of $\{\phi_1^{r_1}\cdots\phi_m^{r_m}(a):a…

We show that for many complex parameters a, the set of points that converge to infinity under iteration of the exponential map f(z)=e^z+a is connected. This includes all parameters for which the singular value escapes to infinity under…

Let $\mathcal{R}$ be a $2$-torsion free commutative ring with unity, $X$ a locally finite pre-ordered set and $I(X,\mathcal{R})$ the incidence algebra of $X$ over $\mathcal{R}$. If $X$ consists of a finite number of connected components, in…

A recent paper of Shemesh shows triangularizability of a pair $\{A, B\}$ of complex matrices satisfying the condition $A [A,B]=[A,B] B=0$, or equivalently, the matrices $A$ and $B$ commute with their product $A B$. In this paper we extend…

In this article, we introduce a notion of an exponential matrix, which is a polynomial matrix with exponential properties, and a notion of an equivalence relation of two exponential matrices, and then we initiate to study classifying…

We point out the existence of an arithmetical symmetry for the commutant of the modular matrices S and T. This symmetry holds for all affine simple Lie algebras at all levels and implies the equality of certain coefficients in any modular…

This article studies the equation $[A,B]^k = {\rm Id}_n$ for matrices over $\mathbb{C}$, characterizing the pairs $(k,n)$ for which solutions exist via a classical result of Lam and Leung on sums of roots of unity. The problem is next…

We introduce a notion of joint spectrum for a tuple of compact operators on a separable Hilbert space and show that in many situations these operators commute if and only if the joint spectrum consists of countably many, locally finite,…

Let $A, B\subseteq \mathbb{R}^2$ be finite, nonempty subsets, let $s\geq 2$ be an integer, and let $h_1(A,B)$ denote the minimal number $t$ such that there exist $2t$ (not necessarily distinct) parallel lines,…

Let $A\subseteq B$ be a commutative ring extension. Let $\mathcal I(A, B)$ be the multiplicative group of invertible $A$-submodules of $B$. In this article, we extend a result of Sadhu and Singh by finding a necessary and sufficient…

We show that if a finite, large enough subset A of an arbitrary abelian group satisfies the small doubling condition |A + A| < (log |A|)^{1 - epsilon} |A|, then A must contain a three-term arithmetic progression whose terms are not all…
