It is well known that kernels in graphs are powerful and useful structures, for instance in the theory of games. However, a kernel does not always exist and Chv\'atal proved in 1973 that it is an NP-Complete problem to decide its existence.…
We characterize the infinitesimal generator of a semigroup of linear fractional self-maps of the unit ball in $\mathbb C^n$, $n\geq 1$. For the case $n=1$ we also completely describe the associated Koenigs function and we solve the…
We investigate the controllability of an infinite-dimensional quantum system: a quantum particle confined on a Thick Quantum Graph, a generalisation of Quantum Graphs whose edges are allowed to be manifolds of arbitrary dimension with…
In this paper, we construct certain rational or integral elements in the motivic cohomology of superelliptic curves which are quotient curves of abelian coverings of $\mathbb{P}^1$ minus $n+2$ points, and prove that these elements are…
We present a formulation of quantum circuits where the focus is set on whether a given circuit (made of unitary operators and projective measurements with definite outcomes) does reflect an actually realizable physical experiment. In order…
It has been shown recently that monomial maps in a large class respecting the action of the infinite symmetric group have, up to symmetry, finitely generated kernels. We study the simplest nontrivial family in this class: the maps given by…
The recent theory of graph limits gives a powerful framework for understanding the properties of suitable (convergent) sequences $(G_n)$ of graphs in terms of a limiting object which may be represented by a symmetric function $W$ on…
We investigate the bottom of the spectra of infinite quantum graphs, i.e., Laplace operators on metric graphs having infinitely many edges and vertices. We introduce a new definition of the isoperimetric constant for quantum graphs and then…
We consider a class of maps from integral Hankel operators to Hankel matrices, which we call restriction maps. In the simplest case, such a map is simply a restriction of the integral kernel onto integers. More generally, it is given by an…
In the present paper we continue to examine cellular covers of groups, focusing on the cardinality and the structure of the kernel K of the cellular map G-> M . We show that in general a torsion free reduced abelian group M may have a…
A linear system on a smooth complex algebraic surface gives rise to a family of smooth curves in the surface. Such a family has a topological monodromy representation valued in the mapping class group of a fiber. Extending arguments of…
The optimal control problem of connecting any two trajectories in a behavior B with maximal persistence of that behavior is put forth and a compact solution is obtained for a general class of behaviors. The behavior B is understood in the…
In a directed graph, a kernel is a subset of vertices that is both stable and absorbing. Not all digraphs have a kernel, but a theorem due to Boros and Gurvich guarantees the existence of a kernel in every clique-acyclic orientation of a…
A quantum processor is a device with a data register and a program register. The input to the program register determines the operation, which is a completely positive linear map, that will be performed on the state in the data register. We…
In a simple C*-algebra with suitable regularity properties, any unitary or invertible element with de la Harpe--Skandalis determinant zero is a finite product of commutators.
The pentagram map takes a planar polygon $P$ to a polygon $P'$ whose vertices are the intersection points of consecutive shortest diagonals of $P$. The orbit of a convex polygon under this map is a sequence of polygons which converges…
We consider infinite graphs and the associated energy forms. We show that a graph is canonically compactifiable (i.e. all functions of finite energy are bounded) if and only if the underlying set is totally bounded with respect to any…
It is shown that the question raised in Section 5.7 of [1] has an affirmative answer.
It has been shown previously that a large class of monomial maps equivariant under the action of an infinite symmetric group have finitely generated kernels up to the symmetric action. We prove that these symmetric toric ideals also have…
A directed graph $D=(V(D),A(D))$ has a kernel if there exists an independent set $K\subseteq V(D)$ such that every vertex $v\in V(D)-K$ has an ingoing arc $u\mathbin{\longrightarrow}v$ for some $u\in K$. There are directed graphs that do…
