We consider the problem of positive-semidefinite continuation: extending a partially specified covariance kernel from a subdomain $\Omega$ of a rectangular domain $I\times I$ to a covariance kernel on the entire domain $I\times I$. For a…
Given a commutative ring with identity $R$, many different and interesting operations can be defined over the set $H_R$ of sequences of elements in $R$. These operations can also give $H_R$ the structure of a ring. We study some of these…
We study two extension problems, and their interconnections: (i) extension of positive definite (p.d.) continuous functions defined on subsets in locally compact groups $G$; and (ii) (in case of Lie groups $G$) representations of the…
It is shown that each linear operator on a separable Hilbert space which generates a finite type I von Neumann algebra has, up to unitary equivalence, a unique representation as a direct integral of inflations of mutually unitary…
A Hilbert bimodule is a right Hilbert module X over a C*-algebra A together with a left action of A as adjointable operators on X. We consider families X = {X_s :s\in P} of Hilbert bimodules, indexed by a semigroup P, which are endowed with…
This note aims to investigate the tensor product of two given Hilbert quasi *-algebras and its properties. The construction proposed in this note turns out to be again a Hilbert quasi *-algebra, thus interesting representability properties…
We study linear problems defined on tensor products of Hilbert spaces with an additional (anti-) symmetry property. We construct a linear algorithm that uses finitely many continuous linear functionals and show an explicit formula for its…
We give a summary of the results from Parts I-V (math.RT/9804086, math.RT/9804087, math.RT/9804088, math.RT/9810013, math.RT/9810014). Our work originated from harmonic analysis on the infinite symmetric group. The problem of spectral…
Permutation-valued features arise in a variety of applications, either in a direct way when preferences are elicited over a collection of items, or an indirect way in which numerical ratings are converted to a ranking. To date, there has…
Suppose H is a space of functions on X. If H is a Hilbert space with reproducing kernel then that structure of H can be used to build distance functions on X. We describe some of those and their interpretations and interrelations. We also…
In this lecture, we survey a number of recent results and developments regarding the representation theory of infinite-dimensional quantum groups (quantum affine algebras and related algebras), as well as their connections with cluster…
This paper reviews the functional aspects of statistical learning theory. The main point under consideration is the nature of the hypothesis set when no prior information is available but data. Within this framework we first discuss about…
This article considers quantum systems described by a finite-dimensional complex Hilbert space $H$. We first define the concept of a finite observable on $H$. We then discuss ways of combining observables in terms of convex combinations,…
A real Lie algebra with a compatible Hilbert space structure (in the sense that the scalar product is invariant) is called a Hilbert-Lie algebra. Such Lie algebras are natural infinite-dimensional analogues of the compact Lie algebras; in…
In this paper, we develop a framework for information theoretic learning based on infinitely divisible matrices. We formulate an entropy-like functional on positive definite matrices based on Renyi's axiomatic definition of entropy and…
We define an extension of operator-valued positive definite functions from the real or complex setting to topological algebras, and describe their associated reproducing kernel spaces. The case of entire functions is of special interest,…
The theory of Toeplitz quantization presented in our previous paper is extended and further developed to include diverse and interesting non-commutative realizations of the classical Euclidean plane. This is done using Hilbert spaces of…
We introduce two new binary operations with combinatorial species; the arithmetic product and the modified arithmetic product. The arithmetic product gives combinatorial meaning to the product of Dirichlet series and to the Lambert series…
We initiate a study of infinite tensor products of projective unitary representations of a discrete group G. Special attention is given to regular representations twisted by 2-cocycles and to projective representations associated with…
In this short note we use ideas from systems theory to define a functional calculus for infinitesimal generators of strongly continuous semigroups on a Hilbert space. Among others, we show how this leads to new proofs of (known) results in…
