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…

Let $A$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix with independent rows $R_1(A),\dots,R_n(A)$, and assume that for any $i\leq n$ and any three-dimensional linear subspace $F\subset {\mathbb R}^n$ the orthogonal projection of $R_i(A)$ onto $F$ has…

On an $n$-dimensional locally reduced complex analytic space $X$ on which the shifted constant sheaf $\Q_X^\bullet[n]$ is perverse, it is well-known that, locally, $\Q_X^\bullet[n]$ underlies a mixed Hodge module of weight $\leq n$ on $X$,…

In this paper, we study the weighted difference substitutions from geometrical views. First, we give the geometric meanings of the weighted difference substitutions, and introduce the concept of convergence of the sequence of substitution…

Let $T$ be a tree on $n$ vertices whose edge weights are positive definite matrices of order $s$. The squared distance matrix of $T$, denoted by $\Delta$, is the $ns \times ns$ block matrix with $\Delta_{ij}=d(i,j)^2$, where $d(i,j)$ is the…

Let $f$ be a measurable function defined on $\mathbb{R}$. For each $n\in\mathbb{Z}$ define the operator $A_n$ by $$A_nf(x)=\frac{1}{2^n}\int_x^{x+2^n}f(y)\, dy.$$ Consider the variation operator…

Combinatorial transition matrices arise frequently in the theory of symmetric functions and their generalizations. The entries of such matrices often count signed, weighted combinatorial structures such as semistandard tableaux, rim-hook…

We show sufficient conditions on matrix weights $U$ and $V$ for the martingale transforms to be uniformly bounded from $L^2(V)$ to $L^2(U)$. We also show that these conditions imply the uniform boundedness of the dyadic shifts as well as…

An $(m,n,k,\lambda)$-relative difference set is a lifting of a $(m,k,n\lambda)$-difference set. Lam gave a table of cyclic relative difference sets with $k \leq 50$ in 1977, all of which were liftings of $(…

Let $p,q$ be coprime integers such that $|p|+|q|>2$. We characterize the matrices $A\in\mathcal{M}_n(\mathbb{C})$ such that $A^p$ and $A^q$ are similar. If $A$ is invertible, we prove that $A$ is a polynomial in $A^p$ and $A^q$. To achieve…

The value of spectral form factor at the origin, called level compressibility, is an important characteristic of random spectra. The paper is devoted to analytical calculations of this quantity for different random unitary matrices…

Let $0 \in \Gamma$ and $\Gamma \setminus \{0\}$ be a subgroup of the complex numbers of unit modulus. Define $\mathcal{H}_{n}(\Gamma)$ to be the set of all $n\times n$ Hermitian matrices with entries in $\Gamma$, whose diagonal entries are…

In this article, we are going to introduce the weighted numerical range which is a further generalization both the c-numerical range and the rank k numerical range. If the boundaries of weighted numerical ranges of two matrices (possibly of…

Let $D$ denote the distance matrix for an $n+1$ point metric space $(X,d)$. In the case that $X$ is an unweighted metric tree, the sum of the entries in $D^{-1}$ is always equal to $2/n$. Such trees can be considered as affinely independent…

A matrix is apportionable if it is similar to a matrix whose entries have equal moduli. This paper shows that all nilpotent matrices and all matrices with rank at most half their order are apportionable. General results are established and…

This paper proves the NP-completeness of the reachability problem for the class of flat counter machines with difference bounds and, more generally, octagonal relations, labeling the transitions on the loops. The proof is based on the fact…

A simple recursive scheme for parameterisation of n-by-n unitary matrices is presented.

Let $(a_n), (b_n)$ be linear recursive sequences of integers with characteristic polynomials $A(X),B(X)\in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ respectively. Assume that $A(X)$ has a dominating and simple real root $\alpha$, while $B(X)$ has a pair of conjugate…

For a given reciprocal matrix A, we give a union of matrix intervals in which any consistent matrix obtained from an efficient vector for A lies, and, conversely, any consistent matrix in this union comes from an efficient vector for A. The…
