There are many notions of rank in multilinear algebra: tensor rank, partition rank, slice rank, and strength (or Schmidt rank) are a few examples. Typically the rank $\le r$ locus is not Zariski closed, and understanding the closure (the…
A tensor defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}$ has low analytic rank if the distribution of its values differs significantly from the uniform distribution. An order $d$ tensor has partition rank 1 if it can be written as a product of two…
Let $G$ be a connected, absolutely almost simple, algebraic group defined over a finitely generated, infinite field $K$, and let $\Gamma$ be a Zariski dense subgroup of $G(K)$. We show, apart from some few exceptions, that the…
This paper is concerned with the analysis of the randomized subspace iteration for the computation of low-rank approximations. We present three different kinds of bounds. First, we derive both bounds for the canonical angles between the…
We consider the logarithm of the characteristic polynomial of random permutation matrices, evaluated on a finite set of different points. The permutations are chosen with respect to the Ewens distribution on the symmetric group. We show…
Tensor models play an increasingly prominent role in many fields, notably in machine learning. In several applications, such as community detection, topic modeling and Gaussian mixture learning, one must estimate a low-rank signal from a…
We consider ontological models of a quantum system, assuming that not all probability distributions over the space $\Lambda$ of ontic states are preparable, only those belonging to a certain set C. We assume further that every POVM with a…
We show that with high probability, random rank 1 matrices over a finite field are in (linearly) general position, at least provided their shape k x l is not excessively unbalanced. This translates into saying that the dimension of the…

Correlation functions involving products and ratios of half-integer powers of characteristic polynomials of random matrices from the Gaussian Orthogonal Ensemble (GOE) frequently arise in applications of Random Matrix Theory (RMT) to…
An Artin algebra $\Lambda$ is said to be of finite Cohen-Macaulay type, $\rm{CM}$-finite for short, if the full subcategory $\rm{Gprj}\mbox{-} \Lambda$ of finitely generated Gorenstein projective $\Lambda$-modules is of finite…
We review recent progress relating to the extreme value statistics of the characteristic polynomials of random matrices associated with the classical compact groups, and of the Riemann zeta-function and other $L$-functions, in the context…
Polynomial-time deterministic approximation of volumes of polytopes, up to an approximation factor that grows at most sub-exponentially with the dimension, remains an open problem. Recent work on this question has focused on identifying…
We derive a general large deviation principle for a canonical sequence of probability measures, having its origins in random matrix theory, on unbounded sets $K$ of ${\bf C}$ with weakly admissible external fields $Q$ and very general…
We give a general lower bound on the rank of matrices of the form $\rho(h) - I$ with $\rho : G \rightarrow GL({\mathbb F}^n)$ an irreducible representation of a finite group $G$. The main tool in the proof is a (strengthening) of a…
Let R\_n be the ring of Laurent polynomials in n variables over a field k of characteristic zero and let K\_n be its fraction field.Given a linear algebraic k-group $G$, we show that a K\_n-torsor under G which is unramified with respect to…
In this paper, we introduce generalized Gorenstein local (GGL) rings. The notion of GGL rings is a natural generalization of the notion of almost Gorenstein rings, which can thus be treated as part of the theory of GGL rings. For a…
Let L be a Lie group and Lambda a lattice in L. Suppose G is a non-compact simple Lie group realized as a Lie subgroup of L, and the image of G on L/Lambda is dense. Let c be a diagonalizable element of G not contained in a compact…
We study the probability that a random polynomial with integer coefficients is reducible when factored over the rational numbers. Using computer-generated data, we investigate a number of different models, including both monic and non-monic…
How many rational points are there on a random algebraic curve of large genus $g$ over a given finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$? We propose a heuristic for this question motivated by a (now proven) conjecture of Mumford on the cohomology of…
