The set of real matrices of upper-bounded rank is a real algebraic variety called the real generic determinantal variety. An explicit description of the tangent cone to that variety is given in Theorem 3.2 of Schneider and Uschmajew [SIAM…

This note fills a gap in the article with title above [1]. We provide the proof of Equation (82) of Lemma 5 in [1] and thereby complete its power counting analysis with a more precise next-to-leading-order estimate.

Polarity coincidence correlator (PCC), when used to estimate the covariance matrix on an element-by-element basis, may not yield a positive semi-definite (PSD) estimate. Devlin et al. [1], claimed that element-wise PCC is not guaranteed to…

Let $T$ be a positive closed current of bidimension (1,1) and unit mass on the complex projective space ${\Bbb P}^n$. We prove that the set $V_\alpha(T)$ of points where $T$ has Lelong number larger than $\alpha$ is contained in a complex…

We prove the $p$-curvature conjecture for rank two vector bundles with connection on generic curves, by combining deformation techniques for families of varieties and topological arguments.

We show the existence of birational self-maps f of P^k which are algebraically stable with algebraic degree d, for which there is a unique positive closed (1,1) current T satisfying f^*T=d T and ||T||=1 and for which the current T gives…

LLet $f$ be a holomorphic endomorphism of $\mathbb P^ 2$ of degree $d \geq 2$. We estimate the local directional dimensions of closed positive currents $S$ with respect to ergodic dilating measures $\nu$. We infer several applications. The…

Let A be an excellent integral henselian local noetherian ring, k its residue field of characteristic p>0 and K its fraction field. Using an algebraization technique introduced by the first named author, and the one-dimension case already…

This paper is a short introduction to the theory of tangles, both in graphs and general connectivity systems. An emphasis is put on the correspondence between tangles of order k and k-connected components. In particular, we prove that there…

We study the closure of the projection of the (nonconvex) cone of rank restricted positive semidefinite matrices onto subsets of the matrix entries. This defines the feasible sets for semidefinite completion problems with restrictions on…

Let $R$ be a two-dimensional regular local ring. In this paper, we prove that there is a bijection between the set of all valuations of $Quot(R)$ centered at $R$ and valuations of $k(x,y)$ centered at $k[x,y]_{(x,y)}$, where $k$ is the…

Given a tract $F$ in the sense of Baker and Bowler and a matrix $A$ with entries in $F$, we define several notions of rank for $A$. In this way, we are able to unify and find conceptually satisfying proofs for various results about ranks of…

I discuss a proposed phase diagram of the cuprate superconductors as a function of temperature, carrier concentration, and a strong magnetic field perpendicular to the layers. I show how the phase diagram gives a unified interpretation of a…

For a prime $p$ and a matrix $A \in \mathbb{Z}^{n \times n}$, write $A$ as $A = p (A \,\mathrm{quo}\, p) + (A \,\mathrm{rem}\, p)$ where the remainder and quotient operations are applied element-wise. Write the $p$-adic expansion of $A$ as…

The model independent axion of string theory has a decay constant of order of the Planck scale. We explore the properties of this quintessence candidate (quintaxion) in the scheme of hidden sector supergravity breakdown. In models allowing…

Given a conserved and traceless energy-momentum tensor and a conformal Killing vector, one obtains a conserved current. We generalise this construction to superconformal theories in three, four, five and six dimensions with various amounts…

The purpose of this note is to give a new, short proof of a classification of ACM sets of points in $P^1XP^1$ in terms of separators.

We revisit and prove some convexity inequalities for trace functions conjectured in the earlier part I. The main functional considered is \Phi_{p,q}(A_1,A_2,...,A_m) = (trace((\sum_{j=1}^m A_j^p)^{q/p}))^{1/q} for m positive definite…

We report on the progress in constructing contracted one-loop tensors. Analytic results for rank R=4 tensors, cross-checked numerically, are presented for the first time.

We show that sufficiently low tensor rank for the balanced tripartitioning tensor $P_d(x,y,z)=\sum_{A,B,C\in\binom{[3d]}{d}:A\cup B\cup C=[3d]}x_Ay_Bz_C$ for a large enough constant $d$ implies uniform arithmetic circuits for the matrix…
