Given a finite set $W$ in $\bar{k}^n$ where $\bar{k}$ is the algebraic closure of a field $k$ one would like to determine if $W$ can be decomposed as $\prod_{i=1}^n V_i$ where $V_i \subset \bar{k}$ under a linear transformation, that is,…

This thesis examins a generalisation of polar decompositions to indefinite inner product spaces. The necessary general theory is studied and some general results are given. The main part of the thesis focuses on polar decompositions with…

We introduce a backward stable algorithm for computing the CS decomposition of a partitioned $2n \times n$ matrix with orthonormal columns, or a rank-deficient partial isometry. The algorithm computes two $n \times n$ polar decompositions…

In pure-penguin bbar -> sbar B -> V_1 V_2 decays (V_{1,2} are vector mesons), fT/fL ~= 1 has been observed (fT (fL) is the polarization fraction of transverse (longitudinal) decays). Explanations of this unexpectedly large result have been…

In this article we prove the existence of the polar decomposition for densely defined closed right linear operators in quaternionic Hilbert spaces: If $T$ is a densely defined closed right linear operator in a quaternionic Hilbert space…

A partial matrix over a field $\mathbb{F}$ is a matrix whose entries are either an element of $\mathbb{F}$ or an indeterminate and with each indeterminate only appearing once. A completion is an assignment of values in $\mathbb{F}$ to all…

Our goal here is to see the space of matrices of a given size from a geometric and topological perspective, with emphasis on the families of various ranks and how they fit together. We pay special attention to the nearest orthogonal…

It is shown that the polar decomposition theorem of operators in (real) Hilbert spaces gives rise to the known decomposition in boost and spatial rotation part of any matrix of the orthochronous proper Lorentz group $SO(1,3)\uparrow$. This…

In the present paper we introduce a notion of $G-$decompositions of matrices. Main result of the paper is that a symmetric matrix $A_m$ has a $G-$decomposition in the class of stochastic (resp. substochastic) matrices if and only if $A_m$…

We consider the varieties of singular $m \times m$ complex matrices which may be either general, symmetric or skew-symmetric (with $m$ even). For these varieties we have shown in another paper that they had compact "model submanifolds", for…

Let $N$ be a simply connected, connected nilpotent Lie group which admits a uniform subgroup $\Gamma.$ Let $\alpha$ be an automorphism of $N$ defined by $\alpha\left( \exp X\right) =\exp AX.$ We assume that the linear action of $A$ is…

The rotation ${\rm polar}(F) \in {\rm SO}(3)$ arises as the unique orthogonal factor of the right polar decomposition $F = {\rm polar}(F) \cdot U$ of a given invertible matrix $F \in {\rm GL}^+(3)$. In the context of nonlinear elasticity…

In certain neighborhood $U$ of an arbitrary point of a symplectic manifold $M$ we construct a Fedosov-type star-product $\ast_L$ such that for an arbitrary leaf $\wp$ of a given polarization $\mathcal{D}\subset TM$ the algebra $C^\infty…

We consider amalgamated free product II$_1$ factors $M = M_1 *_B M_2 *_B ...$ and use ``deformation/rigidity'' and ``intertwining'' techniques to prove that any relatively rigid von Neumann subalgebra $Q\subset M$ can be intertwined into…

We derive fusion rules for the composition of $q$-deformed classical representations (arising in tensor products of the fundamental representation) with semi-periodic representations of $SL(N)_q$ at roots of unity. We obtain full…

Let $V$ be a quasi-conformal grading-restricted vertex algebra, $W$ be its module, and $\W_{z_1, \ldots, z_n}$ be the space of rational differential forms with complex parameters $(z_1, \ldots, z_n)$ for $n \ge 0$. Using geometric…

We derive iterative methods for computing the Fr\'{e}chet derivative of the map which sends a full-rank matrix $A$ to the factor $U$ in its polar decomposition $A=UH$, where $U$ has orthonormal columns and $H$ is Hermitian positive…

Let $(M,\omega)$ be a symplectic manifold, $\mathcal{D}\subset TM$ a real polarization on $M$ and $\wp$ a leaf of $\mathcal{D}$. We construct a Fedosov-type star-product $\ast_L$ on $M$ such that $C^\infty (\wp)[[h]]$ has a natural…

Let $K$ be a number field, and let $F$ be a symmetric bilinear form in $2N$ variables over $K$. Let $Z$ be a subspace of $K^N$. A classical theorem of Witt states that the bilinear space $(Z,F)$ can be decomposed into an orthogonal sum of…

In the work [Bull, Austr. Math. Soc. 85 (2012), 315-234], S.R. Moghadasi has shown how the decomposition of the $N$-fold product of Lebesgue measure on $\mathbb R^n$ implied by matrix polar decomposition can be used to derive the…
