In the paper, we consider bivariate isotropic dilation matrices that are similar (up to constant factors) to rotation matrices; and we show that, in this case, the two-scale relation can be considered also as the relation between not only…

We develop a dilation theory for row contractions subject to constraints determined by sets of noncommutative polynomials. Under natural conditions on the constraints, we have uniqueness for the minimal dilation. A characteristic function…

We study some factorisation and dilation properties of completely positive maps on noncommutative L^p-spaces. We show that Akcoglu's dilation theorem for positive contractions on classical (=commutative) L^p-spaces has no reasonable analog…

Absolutely continuous commuting row contractions admit a weak-$*$ continuous functional calculus. Building on recent work describing the first and second dual spaces of the closure of the polynomial multipliers on the Drury-Arveson space,…

Superintegrable systems of 2nd order in 3 dimensions with exactly 3-parameter potentials are intriguing objects. Next to the nondegenerate 4-parameter potential systems they admit the maximum number of symmetry operators but their symmetry…

Suppose $\mathfrak{R}$ is a $2$,$3$-torsion free unital alternative ring having an idempotent element $e_1$ $\left(e_2 = 1-e_1\right)$ which satisfies $x \mathfrak{R} \cdot e_i = \{0\} \rightarrow x = 0$ $\left(i = 1,2\right)$. In this…

There are considered isometries on a Hilbert space. By the Wold theorem any isometry can be decomposed into a unitary operator and a unilateral shift. For a pair of isometries, even commuting, a maximal subspace reducing one isometry to a…

We consider characterisations of unitary dilations and approximations of irreversible classical dynamical systems on a Hilbert space. In the commutative case, building on the work in [9], one can express well known approximants (e.g. Hille-…

We prove that various spaces of constrained positive scalar curvature metrics on compact 3-manifolds with boundary, when not empty, are contractible. The constraints we mostly focus on are given in terms of local conditions on the mean…

We examine the reductions of the order of certain third- and second-order nonlinear equations with arbitrary nonlinearity through their symmetries and some appropriate transformations. We use the folding transformation which enables one to…

A $7$-tuple of commuting bounded operators $\mathbf{T} = (T_1, \dots, T_7)$ defined on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is said to be a \textit{$\Gamma_{E(3; 3; 1, 1, 1)}$-contraction} if $\Gamma_{E(3; 3; 1, 1, 1)}$ is a spectral set for…

An analysis is given of $*$-representations of rank 2 single vertex graphs. We develop dilation theory for the non-selfadjoint algebras $\A_\theta$ and $\A_u$ which are associated with the commutation relation permutation $\theta$ of a 2…

We extend some of the results of Agler, Knese, and McCarthy [1] to $n$-tuples of commuting isometries for $n>2$. Let $\mathbb{V}=(V_1,\dots,V_n)$ be an $n$-tuple of a commuting isometries on a Hilbert space and let Ann$(\mathbb{V})$ denote…

We study the structure of weakly-closed nonself-adjoint algebras arising from representations of single vertex 2-graphs. These are the algebras generated by 2 isometric tuples which satisfy a certain commutation relation. We show that these…

We show that 3-fold terminal flips and divisorial contractions may be factored into a sequence of flops, blow-downs to a smooth curve in a smooth 3-fold or divisorial contractions to points with minimal discrepancies.

In this paper, we investigate nilpotent Lie algebras $ L $ of nilpotency class $3 $ and provide a complete classification of those satisfying $ \dim L^2 = 3 $ and $Z(L) = L^3 \cong A(2). $ Furthermore, we explicitly characterize the…

For two matrices in $\mathbb R^{n_1\times n_2}$, the von Neumann inequality says that their scalar product is less than or equal to the scalar product of their singular spectrum. In this short note, we extend this result to real tensors and…

The Einstein-Hilbert action in three dimensions and the transformation rules for the dreibein and spin connection can be naturally described in terms of gauge theory. In this spirit, we use covariant coordinates in noncommutative gauge…

The 3-dimensional coherence matrix is interpreted by emphasising its invariance with respect to spatial rotations. Under these transformations, it naturally decomposes into a real symmetric positive definite matrix, interpreted as the…

We give a geometric classification of $n$-dimensional nilpotent, commutative nilpotent and anticommutative nilpotent algebras. We prove that the corresponding geometric varieties are irreducible, find their dimensions and describe explicit…
