In this thesis I demonstrate that isospectral domains, that is domains of differing geometric shapes that possess identical spectra, do not remain isospectral when subject to uniform rotation. One thus *can* hear the shape of a rotating…

Let $p$ be a prime, let $d \geq 1$ be an integer and $A$ be the algebra of square matrices of size $d$ over the field of order $p$. Let $P, Q \in A[x_1, \dots x_n]$ be polynomials in $n$ indeterminates with coefficients in $A$, such that…

We introduce and carefully study a natural probability measure over the numerical range of a complex matrix $A \in M_n(\C)$. This numerical measure $\mu_A$ can be defined as the law of the random variable $<AX,X> \in \C$ when the vector $X…

Consider Ginibre's ensemble of $N \times N$ non-Hermitian random matrices in which all entries are independent complex Gaussians of mean zero and variance $\frac{1}{N}$. As $N \uparrow \infty$ the normalized counting measure of the…

We consider strips of Ising spins at criticality. For strips of width $N$ sites, subdominant (additive) finite-size corrections to scaling are assumed to be of the form $a_k/N^k$ for the free energy, and $b_k/N^k$ for inverse correlation…

Rational wave numbers are periodic sequences ${\mathbf \omega}={\bf A}{\bf w}(f,g)$ in which amplitude ${\bf A}$ a product of powers of trigonometric sequences and ${\bf w}(f,g)=\exp({\bf {i2}\pi ( f {\mathbf \xi} \oplus g{\bf 1})})$ is a…

These expository notes are centered around the circular law theorem, which states that the empirical spectral distribution of a nxn random matrix with i.i.d. entries of variance 1/n tends to the uniform law on the unit disc of the complex…

In this paper we study polynomials $(P_n)$ which are hermitian orthogonal on two arcs of the unit circle with respect to weight functions which have square root singularities at the end points of the arcs, an arbitrary nonvanishing…

Let $A$ be an $(m \times n)$ integral matrix, and let $P=\{ x : A x \leq b\}$ be an $n$-dimensional polytope. The width of $P$ is defined as $ w(P)=min\{ x\in \mathbb{Z}^n\setminus\{0\} :\: max_{x \in P} x^\top u - min_{x \in P} x^\top v…

Many natural and social systems possess power-law memory, and their mathematical modeling requires the application of discrete and continuous fractional calculus. Most of these systems are nonlinear and demonstrate regular and chaotic…

A special class of Jordan algebras over a field $F$ of characteristic zero is considered. Such an algebra consists of an $r$-dimensional subspace of the vector space of all square matrices of a fixed order $n$ over $F$. It contains the…

Symmetry considerations are at the core of the major frameworks used to provide an effective mathematical representation of atomic configurations that is then used in machine-learning models to predict the properties associated with each…

The hemispherical power asymmetry observed by Planck and WMAP can be interpreted as due to a spatially-varying and scale-dependent component of the adiabatic power spectrum. We derive general constraints on the magnitude and…

We study orthogonal polynomials with periodically modulated recurrence coefficients when $0$ lies on the hard edge of the spectrum of the corresponding periodic Jacobi matrix. In particular, we show that their orthogonality measure is…

We prove a general theorem for constructing integral quantum cluster algebras over ${\mathbb{Z}}[q^{\pm 1/2}]$, namely that under mild conditions the integral forms of quantum nilpotent algebras always possess integral quantum cluster…

Let $f$ be a finite Blaschke product with $f(0)=0$ which is not a rotation and let $f^{n}$ be its $n$-th iterate. Given a sequence $\{a_{n}\}$ of complex numbers consider $F= \sum a_n f^{n}$. If $\{a_n\}$ tends to $0$ but $\sum |a_n| =…

The free energy and local height probabilities of the dilute A models with broken $\Integer_2$ symmetry are calculated analytically using inversion and corner transfer matrix methods. These models possess four critical branches. The first…

This paper studies the unitary diagonalization of matrices over formal power series rings. Our main result shows that a normal matrix is unitarily diagonalizable if and only if its minimal polynomial completely splits over the ring and the…
