There exists a generalization of the concept, completely bounded norm for multilinear maps on C*-algebras. We will use the word, Jordan norm, for this norm. The Jordan norm of a multilinear map is obtained via factorizations of the map,…

The classification, up to isomorphism, of two-dimensional (not necessarily commutative) Jordan algebras over algebraically closed fields and $\mathbb{R}$ is presented in terms of their matrices of structure constants.

We study families of scrolls containing a given rational curve and families of rational curves contained in a fixed scroll via a stratification in terms of the degree of the induced map onto P^1 and we prove that there is no rational normal…

We prove that the family of all connected n-dimensional real Lie groups is uniformly Jordan for every n. This implies that all algebraic groups (not necessarily affine) over fields of characteristic zero and some transformation groups of…

In this paper we compute the gonality and the dimension of the Brill-Noether loci $W^1_d(C)$ for curves in a non primitive linear system of a simple abelian surface, adapting vector bundles techniques \`a la Lazarsfeld originally introduced…

Let $M$ be a graph manifold containing a single JSJ torus $T$ and whose JSJ blocks are of the form $\Sigma \times S^1$, where $\Sigma$ is a compact orientable surface with boundary. We show that if $M$ does not admit a Riemannian metric of…

I explore several related routes to deriving the Jordan-algebraic structure of finite-dimensional quantum theory from more transparent operational or physical principles, mainly involving ideas about the symmetries of, and the correlations…

In this paper, we prove three related results; (1) Extension of our result in [10] to all generic hypersurfaces. More precisely, the normal sheaf of a generic rational map $c_0$ to a generic hypersurface $X_0$ of $\mathbf P^n, n\geq 4$ has…

In this paper, we present two related results on curves of genus 3. The first gives a bijection between the classes of the following objects: * Smooth non-hyperelliptic curves C of genus 3, with a choice of an element a in Jac(C)[2]-{0},…

Let T be be a zero-product preserving bounded linear map between C*-algebras A and B. Here neither A nor B is necessarily unital. In this note, we investigate when T gives rise to a Jordan homomorphism. In particular, we show that A and B…

A plane curve $C$ in $\mathbb{P}^2$ defined over $\mathbb{F}_q$ is called plane-filling if $C$ contains every $\mathbb{F}_q$-point of $\mathbb{P}^2$. Homma and Kim, building on the work of Tallini, proved that the minimum degree of a smooth…

Let $C_k$ be a smooth projective curve over a global field $k$, which is neither rational nor elliptic. Harris-Silverman, when $p=0$, and Schweizer, when $p>0$ together with an extra condition on the Jacobian variety…

We use principal angles between two subspaces to define Jordan planes. Jordan planes provide an optimal way to decompose $\mathbb{C}^n$ in relation to given two subspaces. We apply Jordan planes to show that two pairs of of subspaces…

In this paper we prove the Jordan-Kronecker theorem which gives a canonical form for a pair of skew-symmetric bilinear forms on a finite-dimensional vector space over an algebraically closed field.

We study closed smooth convex plane curves $\Gamma$ enjoying the following property: a pair of points $x,y$ can traverse $\Gamma$ so that the distances between $x$ and $y$ along the curve and in the ambient plane do not change; such curves…

In this note we show that a bounded degree planar triangulation is recurrent if and only if the set of accumulation points of some/any circle packing of it is polar (that is, planar Brownian motion avoids it with probability 1). This…

We discuss several counterexamples to a rigidity conjecture of K. Khanin, which states that under some quantitative condition on non-existence of periodic orbits, $C^0$ conjugacy implies $C^1$ (even $C^\infty$) conjugacy. We construct…

In this paper we study noncommutative plane curves, i.e. non-commutative k-algebras for which the 1-dimensional simple modules form a plane curve. We study extensions of simple modules and we try to enlighten the completion problem, i.e.…

The notion of constant cycle curves on K3 surfaces is introduced. These are curves that do not contribute to the Chow group of the ambient K3 surface. Rational curves are the most prominent examples. We show that constant cycle curves…

Let C be a Brill-Noether-Petri curve of genus g\geq 12. We prove that C lies on a polarized K3 surface, or on a limit thereof, if and only if the Gauss-Wahl map for C is not surjective. The proof is obtained by studying the validity of two…
