We give sufficient conditions for a positive stochastic matrix to be similar and strong shift equivalent over $\mathbb{R}_+$ to a positive doubly stochastic matrix through matrices of the same size. We also prove that every positive…

Let R be a ring. Let SSE-R be the equivalence relation on square matrices (allowed to have different size) over R generated by A ~ B if there exist matrices U,V over R such that A = UV and B = VU . An invariant of SSE-R is shift equivalence…

We prove spectral analogues of the classical strong multiplicity one theorem for newforms. Let $\Gamma_1$ and $\Gamma_2$ be uniform lattices in a semisimple group $G$. Suppose all but finitely many irreducible unitary representations (resp.…

We present a more general (parametric-) homological characterization of the Direct Summand Theorem. Specifically, we state two new conjectures: the Socle-Parameter conjecture (SPC) in its weak and strong forms. We give a proof for the week…

We introduce the set $\mathcal{G}^{\rm SSP}$ of all simple graphs $G$ with the property that each symmetric matrix corresponding to a graph $G \in \mathcal{G}^{\rm SSP}$ has the strong spectral property. We find several families of graphs…

The paper studies algebraic strong shift equivalence of matrices over $n$-variable polynomial rings over a principal ideal domain $D$($n\leq 2$). It is proved that in the case $n=1$, every non-zero matrix over $D[x]$ has a full rank…

We establish comparison maps between the classical algebraic $K$-theory of algebras over a field and its analogue $K^c$, an algebraic $K$-theory for coalgebras over a field. The comparison maps are compatible with the Hattori--Stallings…

Let $G$ be a transitive permutation group on $\Omega$ with two points $\alpha, \beta\in\Omega$ such that $G_{\alpha}\cap G_{\beta}=1$. The Saxl graph $\Sigma(G)$ of the pair $(G,\Omega)$ is the graph with vertex set $\Omega$, while two…

Let $G$ be a group and let $E$ be a functor from small $\Z$-linear categories to spectra. Also let $A$ be a ring with a $G$-action. Under mild conditions on $E$ and $A$ one can define an equivariant homology theory of $G$-simplicial sets…

We study the notion of strongly badly approximable matrices in the field of power series over a field $K$. We prove a transference principle in this setting, and show that such matrices exist when $K$ is infinite.

We show that the strongly symmetric spectral convex compact sets are precisely the normalized state spaces of finite-dimensional simple Euclidean Jordan algebras and the simplices. Spectrality is the property that every state has a convex…

Reiner, Shaw and van Willigenburg showed that if two skew Schur functions s_A and s_B are equal, then the skew shapes A and B must have the same "row overlap partitions." Here we show that these row overlap equalities are also implied by a…

In the early 1990's, Kim and Roush developed path methods for establishing strong shift equivalence (SSE) of positive matrices over a dense subring U of the real numbers R. This paper gives a detailed, unified and generalized presentation…

Spectral characterization of graphs is an important topic in spectral graph theory, which has received a lot of attention from researchers in recent years. It is generally very hard to show a given graph to be determined by its spectrum.…

We introduce the notion of a strong equivalence between graded algebras and prove that any partially-strongly-graded algebra by a group $G$ is strongly-graded-equivalent to the skew group algebra by a product partial action of $G$. As to a…

As an alternative to the famous Schanuel's Conjecture (SC), we introduce the Schanuel Subset Conjecture (SSC): Given $\alpha_1,...,\alpha_n\in \mathbb{C}$ linearly independent over $\mathbb{Q}$, if $\{\alpha_1,...,\alpha_n,…

The equivalence of inertial and gravitational masses is a defining feature of general relativity. Here, we clarify the status of the equivalence principle for interactions mediated by a universally coupled scalar, motivated partly by recent…

We explore algebraic and spectral properties of weighted graphs containing twin vertices that are useful in quantum state transfer. We extend the notion of adjacency strong cospectrality to arbitrary Hermitian matrices, with focus on the…

(This is an updated version; following an idea of Voevodsky, we have strengthened our results so all of them apply to one form of motivic homotopy theory). We give two general constructions for the passage from unstable to stable homotopy…

Let $G$ be a finite nilpotent group and $n\in \{3,4, 5\}$. Consider $S_n\times G$ as a subgroup of $S_n\times S_{|G|}\subset S_{n|G|}$, where $G$ embeds into the second factor of $S_n\times S_{|G|}$ via the regular representation. Over any…
