We give some graph theoretical formulas for the trace $Tr_k(\mathbb {T})$ of a tensor $\mathbb {T}$ which do not involve the differential operators and auxiliary matrix. As applications of these trace formulas in the study of the spectra of…

Foster's network theorems and their extensions to higher orders involve resistance values and conductances. We establish identities concerning voltage values and conductances. Our identities are analogous to the extended Foster's…

Let $A$ be a positive semidefinite $m\times m$ block matrix with each block $n$-square, then the following determinantal inequality for partial traces holds \[ (\mathrm{tr} A)^{mn} - \det(\mathrm{tr}_2 A)^n \ge \bigl| \det A -…

The trace anomaly in six-dimensional space is given by the local terms which have six derivatives of the metric. We find the effective action which is responsible for the anomaly. The result is presented in non-local covariant form and also…

The work of Andrews and Merca on the truncated Euler's pentagonal number theorem led to a resurgence in research on truncated theta series identities. In particular, Yee proved a truncated version of the Jacobi Triple Product (JTP)…

Mickelsson's invariant is an invariant of certain odd twisted K-classes of compact oriented three dimensional manifolds. We reformulate the invariant as a natural homomorphism taking values in a quotient of the third cohomology, and provide…

We show that the path algebra of a quiver satisfies the same polynomial identities of an algebra of matrices, if any. In particular, the algebra of nxn matrices is PI-equivalent to the path algebra of the oriented cycle with n vertices.

Zagier proved that the traces of singular values of the classical j-invariant are the Fourier coefficients of a weight 3/2 modular form and Duke provided a new proof of the result by establishing an exact formula for the traces using…

We show that the trace formula interpretation of the explicit formulas expresses the counting function N(q) of the hypothetical curve C associated to the Riemann zeta function, as an intersection number involving the scaling action on the…

A heretofore longstanding open question of Kaplansky was, "Is every Type II_1 AW*-factor a von Neumann algebra?" In this paper, we answer this question in the affirmative. As a consequence, we establish that every 2-quasitrace on a unital…

Resultant $R_{r_1, ..., r_n}$ defines a condition of solvability for a system of $n$ homogeneous polynomials of degrees $r_1, ..., r_n$ in $n$ variables, just in the same way as determinant does for a system of linear equations. Because of…

The first and last named authors have demonstrated the existence of knots for which every integral slope is non-characterizing. In this short note, we extend this result in two ways. There exists a knot that shares for every integer n the…

We define a trace map for every cohomological correspondence in the motivic stable homotopy category over a general base scheme, which takes values in the twisted bivariant groups. Local contributions to the trace map give rise to quadratic…

We introduce certain correlation functions (graded $q$--traces) associated to vertex operator algebras and superalgebras which we refer to as $n$--point functions. These naturally arise in the studies of representations of Lie algebras of…

We study the end-behavior of integer-valued FI-modules. Our first result describes the high degrees of an FI-module in terms of newly defined tail invariants. Our main result provides an equivalence of categories between FI-tails and…

We give a short proof of a recent result of Drury on the positivity of a $3\times 3$ matrix of the form $(\|R_i^*R_j\|_{\rm tr})_{1 \le i, j \le 3}$ for any rectangular complex (or real) matrices $R_1, R_2, R_3$ so that the multiplication…

This paper begins a new approach to the $r$-trace formula, without removing the nontempered contribution to the spectral side. We first establish an invariant trace formula whose discrete spectral terms are weighted by automorphic…

We classify rotary (orientably-regular) maps whose underlying graphs are multicycles. For the multicycle $\mathrm{C}_n^{(\lambda)}$ of length $n$ and edge-multiplicity $\lambda$, we determine all rotary embeddings for $n\geqslant 3$ and…

The space M_n of all isomorphism classes of n-dimensional Lie algebras over a field k has a natural non-Hausdorff topology, induced from the Segal topology by the action of GL(n). One way of studying this complicated space is by topological…

The question whether an operator belongs to the domain of some singular trace is addressed, together with the dual question whether an operator does not belong to the domain of some singular trace. We show that the answers are positive in…
