The theory of almost commuting matrices can be used to quantify topological obstructions to the existence of localized Wannier functions with time-reversal symmetry in systems with time-reversal symmetry and strong spin-orbit coupling. We…

We consider a class of operator-induced norms, acting as finite-dimensional surrogates to the L2 norm, and study their approximation properties over Hilbert subspaces of L2 . The class includes, as a special case, the usual empirical norm…

We study higher rank Jacobi partial and false theta functions (generalizations of the classical partial and false theta functions) associated to positive definite rational lattices. In particular, we focus our attention on certain Kostant's…

Linear spaces with an Euclidean metric are ubiquitous in mathematics, arising both from quadratic forms and inner products. Operators on such spaces also occur naturally. In recent years, the study of multivariate operator theory has made…

It has recently been argued by Alday et al that the inclusion of surface operators in 4d N=2 SU(2) quiver gauge theories should correspond to insertions of certain degenerate operators in the dual Liouville theory. So far only the insertion…

A new analytic model for left-invertible operators, which extends both Shimorin's analytic model for left-invertible and analytic operators and Gellar's model for bilateral weighted shift is introduced and investigated. We show that a…

This paper addresses the issue of integrable structure in a modified melting crystal model of topological string theory on the resolved conifold. The partition function can be expressed as the vacuum expectation value of an operator on the…

Modular data is the most significant invariant of a modular tensor category. We pursue an approach to the classification of modular data of modular tensor categories by building the modular $S$ and $T$ matrices directly from irreducible…

In these lectures we explain the intimate relationship between modular invariants in conformal field theory and braided subfactors in operator algebras. A subfactor with a braiding determines a matrix $Z$ which is obtained as a coupling…

This paper studies rational functions $\mathfrak{J}_\alpha(q)$, which depend on a positive element $\alpha$ of the root lattice of a root system. These functions arise as Shapovalov pairings of Whittaker vectors in Verma modules of highest…

Matrix spherical functions associated to the compact symmetric pair $(\mathrm{SU}(m+2), \mathrm{S}(\mathrm{U}(2)\times \mathrm{U}(m))$, having reduced root system of type $\mathrm{BC}_2$, are studied. We consider an irreducible…

In this paper, we consider natural Hilbert-space representations $\left\{ \left(\mathbb{C}^{2},\pi_{t}\right)\right\} _{t\in\mathbb{R}}$ of the hypercomplex system $\left\{ \mathbb{H}_{t}\right\} _{t\in\mathbb{R}}$, and study the…

In this paper, we study matrix functions of bounded type from the viewpoint of describing an interplay between function theory and operator theory. \ We first establish a criterion on the coprime-ness of two singular inner functions and…

Second order equations of the form $z'' + A_0 z + D z'=0$ in an abstract Hilbert space are considered. Such equations are often used as a model for transverse motions of thin beams in the presence of damping. We derive various properties of…

We present complete classifications of Toeplitz + Hankel operators on vector-valued Hardy spaces and classify paired operators on $L^2(\mathbb{T})$. We also study the latter class through the lens of inner functions on the disc.

Let $A = (A_1, \ldots, A_n)$ and $B = (B_1, \ldots, B_n)$ be row contractions on $\mathcal{H}_1$ and $\mathcal{H}_2$, respectively, and $X$ be a row operator from $\oplus_{i=1}^n \mathcal{H}_2$ to $\mathcal{H}_1$. Let $D_{A^*} = (I - A…

A consistent description of images on the disk and of their transformations is given as elements of a vector space and of an operators algebra. The vector space of images on the disk $\mathbb{D}$ is the Hilbert space $L^2(\mathbb{D})$ that…

These are the lecture notes of a series of lectures on Dunkl operators. We discuss the underlying algebraic structure of the degenerate double affine Hecke algebra, intertwiners and shift operators. We apply this to Macdonald theory. We…

Let $\mathcal{L}=-\Delta+\mathit{V}(x)$ be a Schr\"{o}dinger operator, where $\Delta$ is the Laplacian operator on $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ $(d\geq 3)$, while the nonnegative potential $\mathit{V}(x)$ belongs to the reverse H\"{o}lder class $B_{q},…

We apply Kadanoff's theory of marginal deformations of conformal field theories to twistfield deformations of Z_2 orbifold models in K3 moduli space. These deformations lead away from the Z_2 orbifold sub-moduli-space and hence help to…
