On any compact manifold of dimension greater than 3, we exhibit a metric whose first positive eigenvalue for the Laplacian acting on p-form is of multiplicity 2. As a corollary, we prescribe the volume and any finite part of the spectrum of…

Let A be an associative algebra of arbitrary dimension over a field F and G a finite soluble group of automorphisms of A oforder n, prime to the characteristic of F. We prove that if the fixed-point subalgebra of A under the action of G…

Let $F$ be a field, char$(F)\neq 2$. Then every finite-dimensional $F$-algebra has either an idempotent or an absolute nilpotent if and only if over $F$ every polynomial of odd degree has a root in $F$. This is also necessary and sufficient…

We consider two natural gradings on the space of symmetric functions: by degree and by length. We introduce a differential operator $T$ that leaves the components of this double grading invariant and exhibit a basis of bihomogeneous…

Multivalued linear operators, also known as linear relations, are studied on a specific class of weighted, composition transforms on Fock space. Basic properties of this class of linear relations, such as closed graph, boundedness, complex…

We prove existence results for optimization problems for the $k$th Laplace eigenvalue on closed Riemannian manifolds of dimension $m \geq 3$, depending on the choice of normalization. One such normalization leads to eigenvalue optimization…

Let $X$ be a rearrangement-invariant space. An operator $T: X\to X$ is called narrow if for each measurable set $A$ and each $\epsilon > 0$ there exists $x \in X$ with $x^2= \chi_A, \int x d \mu = 0$ and $\| Tx \| < \epsilon$. In particular…

Given linearly independent holomorphic functions $f_0,...,f_n$ on a planar domain $\Omega$, let $\mathcal E$ be the set of those points $z\in\Omega$ where a nontrivial linear combination $\sum_{j=0}^n\lambda_jf_j$ may have a zero of…

Let $(M,g)$ be a non-compact riemannian $n$-manifold with bounded geometry at order $k\geq\frac{n}{2}$. We show that if the spectrum of the Laplacian starts with $q+1$ discrete eigenvalues isolated from the essential spectrum, and if the…

The relative distance between eigenvalues of the compression of a not necessarily semibounded self-adjoint operator to a closed subspace and some of the eigenvalues of the original operator in a gap of the essential spectrum is considered.…

We describe properties of a Hermitian square matrix M in M_n(C) equivalent to that of having minimal quotient norm in the following sense: ||M|| <= ||M+D|| for all real diagonal matrices D in M_n(C) and || || the operator norm. These…

We consider the Schr{\"o}dinger operator --$\Delta$ + V on the Euclidean space with potential in the Lorentz space L^{n/2,1} and we find necessary and sufficient conditions for zero to be a resonance or an eigenvalue. We consider functions…

This paper is concerned with the interplay between statistical asymmetry and spectral methods. Suppose we are interested in estimating a rank-1 and symmetric matrix $\mathbf{M}^{\star}\in \mathbb{R}^{n\times n}$, yet only a randomly…

This note is concerned with the zeros of holomorphic Hecke cusp forms of large weight on the modular surface. The zeros of such forms are symmetric about three geodesic segments and we call those zeros that lie on these segments, real. Our…

We prove that in a Euclidean space of dimension at least two, there exists a compact set of Lebesgue measure zero such that any real-valued Lipschitz function defined on the space is differentiable at some point in the set. Such a set is…

We ask the question whether for a given unitary representation $U$ the associated operator $\rho_{U}\in\operatorname{Mor}(U,U^{c\, c})$ has spectrum invariant under inversion -- in this case we say that $\rho_{U}$ has symmetric eigenvalues.…

We consider transfer operators acting on spaces of holomorphic functions, and provide explicit bounds for their eigenvalues. More precisely, if D is any open set in C^d, and L is a suitable transfer operator acting on Bergman space A^2(D),…

We give an estimate for the volume of an analytic variety (or more generally the mass of a positive closed current) close to a real submanifold $M$. Applications are given to the Hausdorff measure of the intersection of the variety with $M$…

We study multiplicity of the eigenvalues of the Hodge Laplacian on smooth, compact Riemannian manifolds of dimension five for generic families of metrics. We prove that generically the Hodge Laplacian, restricted to the subspace of co-exact…

Let $\Delta_M$ be the Laplace operator on a compact $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold without boundary. We study the zero sets of its eigenfunctions $u:\Delta u + \lambda u =0$. In dimension $n=2$ we refine the Donnelly-Fefferman estimate…
