We prove universality at the edge of the spectrum for unitary (beta=2), orthogonal (beta=1) and symplectic (beta=4) ensembles of random matrices in the scaling limit for a class of weights w(x)=exp(-V(x)) where V is a polynomial,…

Using the standard representation of the Dirac equation we show that, up to signs, there exist only TWO SETS of consistent solutions for the matrices of charge conjugation (C), parity (P), and time reversal (T). In both cases, P^2=-1, and…

A Dirichlet operator algebra is a nonself-adjoint operator algebra $\mathcal{A}$ with the property that $\mathcal{A} + \mathcal{A}^*$ is norm-dense in the C$^*$-envelope of $\mathcal{A}.$ We show that, under certain restrictions,…

Let $A$ and $B$ be unital complex Banach algebras having no quotients isomorphic to $\mathbb{C}$ or $M_2(\mathbb{C})$. Assume additionally that $B$ is semisimple. If a surjective additive mapping $\Phi\colon A\to B$ satisfies…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the left projectivity and biprojectivity of Banach algebras defined by locally trivial continuous fields of Banach algebras. We identify projective $C^*$-algebras $\A$ defined by locally…

If a tuple of matrices has a common invariant subspace, its projective joint spectrum has an algebraic component. In general, the converse is not true, and there might be algebraic components in the projective joint spectrum without…

Given a positive, irreducible and bounded C_0-semigroup on a Banach lattice with order continuous norm, we prove that the peripheral point spectrum of its generator is trivial whenever one of its operators dominates a non-trivial compact or…

A discrete group $\G$ is called rigidly symmetric if for every $C^*$-algebra $\A$ the projective tensor product $\ell^1(\G)\widehat\otimes\A$ is a symmetric Banach $^*$-algebra. For such a group we show that the twisted crossed product…

Let $X$ be a smooth irreducible projective variety over a field $\mathbf{k}$ of dimension $d.$ Let $\tau: \mathbb{Q}_l\to \mathbb{C}$ be any field embedding. Let $f: X\to X$ be a surjective endomorphism. We show that for every…

The spectral theory for operator pencils and operator differential-algebraic equations is studied. Special focus is laid on singular operator pencils and three different concepts of singularity of operator pencils are introduced. The…

We prove that finite-spectrum representations of compact quantum groups either in unital $C^*$-algebras $A$ or on Banach spaces $E$ exhibit the same Banach-space-modeled differential-geometric structure as their classical analogues: (a)…

We extend our previous results on generalized Dixmier-Douady theory to graded $C^*$-algebras, as means for explicit computations of the invariants arising for bundles of ungraded $C^*$-algebras. For a strongly self-absorbing $C^*$-algebra…

We establish spectral enclosures and spectral approximation results for the inhomogeneous lossy Drude-Lorentz system with purely imaginary poles, in a possibly unbounded Lipschitz domain of $\mathbb{R}^3$. Under the assumption that the…

We extend an example of B. Aupetit, which illustrates spectral discontinuity for operators on an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space, to a general spectral discontinuity result in abstract Banach algebras. This can then be used to…

A universal adjacency matrix of a graph $G$ with adjacency matrix $A$ is any matrix of the form $U = \alpha A + \beta I + \gamma J + \delta D$ with $\alpha \neq 0$, where $I$ is the identity matrix, $J$ is the all-ones matrix and $D$ is the…

Let $\mathbf{T} \equiv (T_1,\cdots,T_n)$ be a commuting $n$-tuple of operators on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, and let $T_i \equiv V_i P \; (1 \le i \le n)$ be its canonical joint polar decomposition (i.e.,…

We generalize earlier results about connected components of idempotents in Banach algebras, due to B. Sz\H{o}kefalvi Nagy, Y. Kato, S. Maeda, Z. V. Kovarik, J. Zem\'anek, J. Esterle. Let $A$ be a unital complex Banach algebra, and…

In this paper we review and streamline some results of Kirillov, Olshanski and Pickrell on unitary representations of the unitary group $\U(\cH)$ of a real, complex or quaternionic separable Hilbert space and the subgroup $\U_\infty(\cH)$,…

Let $q=|q|e^{i\pi\theta},\,\theta\in(-1,1],$ be a nonzero complex number such that $|q|\neq 1$ and consider the compact quantum group $U_q(2)$. For $\theta\notin\mathbb{Q}\setminus\{0,1\}$, we obtain the $K$-theory of the $C^*$-algebra…
