We examine rigidity phenomena for representations of amenable operator algebras which have an ideal of compact operators. We establish that a generalized version of Kadison's conjecture on completely bounded homomorphisms holds for the…

The fundamental theorem of affine geometry is a classical and useful result. For finite-dimensional real vector spaces, the theorem roughly states that a bijective self-mapping which maps lines to lines is affine. In this note we prove…

In the early 2000's, Littlejohn and Wellman developed a general left-definite theory for certain self-adjoint operators by fully determining their domains and spectral properties. The description of these domains do not feature explicit…

The aim of this paper is to argue that the (alleged) indeterminism of quantum mechanics, claimed by adherents of the Copenhagen interpretation since Born (1926), can be proved from Chaitin's follow-up to Goedel's (first) incompleteness…

We describe the symmetry group of the stabilizer polytope for any number $n$ of systems and any prime local dimension $d$. In the qubit case, the symmetry group coincides with the linear and anti-linear Clifford operations. In the case of…

The contour argument was introduced by Peierls for two dimensional Ising model. Peierls benefited from the particular symmetries of the Ising model. For non-symmetric models the argument was developed by Pirogov and Sinai. It is very…

Marstrand's celebrated projection theorem gives the Hausdorff dimension of the orthogonal projection of a Borel set in Euclidean space for almost all orthogonal projections. It is straightforward to see that sets for which the Fourier and…

The Kadison-Singer problem asks: does every pure state on the diagonal sublgebra of the C*-algebra of bounded operators on a separable infinite dimensional Hilbert space admit a unique extension? A yes answer is equivalent to several open…

B. Afsari has recently proposed a new approach to the matrix joint diagonalization, introduced by J.--F. Cardoso in 1994, in order to investigate the independent component analysis and the blind signal processing in a wider prospective.…

In 1988 Simpson extended the Donaldson-Uhlenbeck-Yau theorem to the context of Higgs bundles, and as an application he proved a uniformization theorem which characterizes complex projective manifolds and quasi-projective curves whose…

For $O$ an imaginary quadratic ring, we compute a fundamental polyhedron of $\text{PE}_2(O)$, the projective elementary subgroup of $\text{PSL}_2(O)$. This allows for new, simplified proofs of theorems of Cohn, Nica, Fine, and Frohman.…

By the algorithm implemented in the paper [2] by Akiyama-Lee and some of its predecessors, we have examined the pure discreteness of the spectrum for all irreducible Pisot substitutions of trace less than or equal to $2$, and some cases of…

In 1904, Dickson [5] stated a very important conjecture. Now people call it Dickson's conjecture. In 1958, Schinzel and Sierpinski [14] generalized Dickson's conjecture to the higher order integral polynomial case. However, they did not…

We prove that the set of orthogonal projections on a Hilbert space equipped with the length metric is $\frac\pi2$-geodesic. As an application, we consider the problem of variation of spectral subspaces for bounded linear self-adjoint…

The notion of direct integrals introduced by Haydon, Levy and Raynaud in 1991 is a generalisation of the well-known concept of K\"othe-Bochner spaces of vector-valued functions (using a family of target spaces instead of just one space).…

Fekete, Jord\'an and Kaszanitzky [4] characterised the graphs which can be realised as 2-dimensional, infinitesimally rigid, bar-joint frameworks in which two given vertices are coincident. We formulate a conjecture which would extend their…

In 1970, Coxeter gave a short and elegant geometric proof showing that if $p_1, p_2, \ldots, p_n$ are vertices of an $n$-gon $P$ in cyclic order, then $P$ is affinely regular if, and only if there is some $\lambda \geq 0$ such that…

The aim of this partly expository paper is to present and discuss two classes of sets of integers (Jamison and Kazhdan sets) whose definition and/or properties are determined or inspired by operator-theoretical properties. Jamison sets…

As a result of 33 intercontinental Zoom calls, we characterise big Ramsey degrees of the generic partial order. This is an infinitary extension of the well known fact that finite partial orders endowed with linear extensions form a Ramsey…

Tate's central extension originates from 1968 and has since found many applications to curves. In the 80s Beilinson found an n-dimensional generalization: cubically decomposed algebras, based on ideals of bounded and discrete operators in…
