The first representation theorem establishes a correspondence between positive, self-adjoint operators and closed, positive forms on Hilbert spaces. The aim of this paper is to show that some of the results remain true if the underlying…
We apply the supergeometric analogue of Artin's algebraicity criteria to prove algebraicity for four moduli problems in supergeometry: supercurves, super Riemann surfaces, stable supercurves, and stable super Riemann surfaces. The…
The purpose of this paper is to show how Rees algebras can be applied in the study of singularities embedded in smooth schemes over perfect fields. In particular, we will study situations in which the multiplicity of a hypersurface is a…
We define essentially positive operators on Hilbert space as a class of self-adjoint operators whose essential spectra is contained in the nonnegative real numbers and describe their basic properties. Using Toeplitz operators and the…
We formulate a positivity conjecture relating the Verlinde ring associated with an untwisted affine Lie algebra at a positive integer level and a subcategory of finite-dimensional representations over the corresponding quantum affine…
A real seminormed involutive algebra is a real associative algebra ${\mathcal A}$ endowed with an involutive antiautomorphism $*$ and a submultiplicative seminorm $p$ with $p(a^*) =p(a)$ for $a\in {\mathcal A}$. Then ${\mathop{\tt…
Based on computeralgebra experiments we formulate a refined version of Green's conjecture and a conjecture of Schicho-Schreyer-Weimann which conjecturally also holds in positive characteristic. The experiments are done by using our…
In this note we are going to consider a smooth projective surface equipped with an involution and study the action of the involution at the level of Chow group of zero cycles.
Ufnarovski remarked in 1990 that it is unknown whether any finitely presented associative algebra of linear growth is automaton, that is, whether the set of normal words in the algebra form a regular language. If the algebra is graded, then…
We extend some results of Bonahon, Bullock, Turaev and Wong concerning the skein algebras of closed surfaces to L^e's stated skein algebra associated to open surfaces. We prove that the stated skein algebra with deforming parameter +1…
The relation between representations and positive definite functions is a key concept in harmonic analysis on topological groups. Recently this relation has been studied on topological groupoids. This is the second in a series of papers in…
We develop the notion of deformations using a valuation ring as ring of coefficients. This permits to consider in particular the classical Gerstenhaber deformations of associative or Lie algebras as infinitesimal deformations and to solve…
Hilbert evolution algebras generalize evolution algebras through a framework of Hilbert spaces. In this work we focus on infinite-dimensional Hilbert evolution algebras and their representation through a suitably defined weighted digraph.…
In this paper we study positive fixed points of Hammerstein integral operators with degenerate kernel in the cone of C[0, 1]. Problem on a number of positive fixed points of the Hammerstein integral operator leads to the study positive…
A necessary and sufficient condition for a central simple algebra with involution over a field of characteristic two to be decomposable as a tensor product of quaternion algebras with involution, in terms of its Frobenius subalgebras, is…
We provide a unified approach, via deformations of incidence algebras, to several important types of representations with finiteness conditions, as well as the combinatorial algebras which produce them. We show that over finite dimensional…
Several classes of *-algebras associated to the action of an affine transformation are considered, and an investigation of the interplay between the different classes of algebras is initiated. Connections are established that relate…
We compute the Dijkgraaf-Witten invariants of surfaces in terms of projective representations of groups. As an application we prove that the complex Dijkgraaf-Witten invariants of surfaces of positive genus are positive integers.
We study the notion of algebraic tangent cones at singularities of reflexive sheaves. These correspond to extensions of reflexive sheaves across a negative divisor. We show the existence of optimal extensions in a constructive manner, and…
The classification of local Artinian Gorenstein algebras is equivalent to the study of orbits of a certain non-reductive group action on a polynomial ring. We give an explicit formula for the orbits and their tangent spaces. We apply our…
