The Eigendecomposition of quadratic forms (symmetric matrices) guaranteed by the spectral theorem is a foundational result in applied mathematics. Motivated by a shared structure found in inferential problems of recent interest---namely…
Using techniques from semidefinite programming, we study the problem of finding a closest quantum channel to the projection onto a matricial subsystem. We derive two invariants of matricial subsystems which are related to the quantum…
In the spirit of the geometric approach to two-dimensional conformal field theory, we explicitly associate to every holomorphic vertex operator algebra a section of a power of Hodge line bundle on the moduli space of curves of arbitrary…
False theta functions closely resemble ordinary theta functions, however they do not have the modular transformation properties that theta functions have. In this paper, we find modular completions for false theta functions, which among…
We denote functions mapping n to the Fourier coefficient of q^n in the expansion of a cusp form as Ramanujan functions. We empirically study the eigenvalues of determinants that represent values of these Ramanujan functions. In some cases,…
In this short note we show that representation and character varieties of discrete groups can be viewed as tensor products of suitable functors over the PROP of cocommutative Hopf algebras. Such view point has several interesting…
In this paper we investigate the Fourier coefficients of harmonic Maass forms of negative half-integral weight. We relate the algebraicity of these coefficients to the algebraicity of the coefficients of certain canonical meromorphic…
We construct a modular functor which takes its values in the monoidal bicategory of finite categories, left exact functors and natural transformations. The modular functor is defined on bordisms that are 2-framed. Accordingly we do not need…
The modular $j$-function is a bijective map from $X_0(1) \setminus \{\infty\}$ to $\mathbb{C}$. A natural question is to describe the inverse map. Gauss offered a solution to the inverse problem in terms of the arithmetic-geometric mean.…
If $f(z)$ is a modular form of weight $k$, then the differential operator $\vartheta_k$ defined by $\vartheta_k(f) = \frac{1}{2\pi i} \frac{d}{dz}f(z) - \frac{k}{12} E_2(z) f(z)$ (known as the Ramanujan-Serre derivative map) is a modular…
We propose a Hermite spectral method for the spatially inhomogeneous Boltzmann equation. For the inverse-power-law model, we generalize an approximate quadratic collision operator defined in the normalized and dimensionless setting to an…
We compute effective bounds for $\alpha(n)$, the Fourier coefficients of Ramunujan's mock theta function $f(q)$ utilizing a finite algebraic formula due to Bruinier and Schwagenscheidt. We then use these bounds to prove two conjectures of…
It is shown that any Hermitian operator can be expanded in terms of a set of operators formed from biorthogonal basis, and the expansion coefficients are given as products of weight functions and weak values, shedding a new light on the…
We investigate the implications of a given symmetry of a random microstructure on the obtained effective tensor and its fluctuation in the context of thermal conductivity, and study strategies for enforcing these symmetries in…
In this work we consider an association of meromorphic Jacobi forms of half-integral index to the pure D-type cases of umbral moonshine, and solve the module problem for four of these cases by constructing vertex operator superalgebras that…
We construct new families of discrete vector orthogonal polynomials that have the property to be eigenfunctions of some difference operator. They are extensions of Charlier, Meixner and Kravchuk polynomial systems. The ideas behind our…
We present several aspects of the "topology of meromorphic functions", which we conceive as a general theory which includes the topology of holomorphic functions, the topology of pencils on quasi-projective spaces and the topology of…
The relation between the spectral decomposition of a self-adjoint operator which is realizable as a higher order recurrence operator and matrix-valued orthogonal polynomials is investigated. A general construction of such operators from…

We evaluate some methods designed for tensor- (or data-) based multivariate model construction (approximation and compression). To this aim, a collection of multivariate functions and an evaluation methodology are suggested. First, these…
