A generalized version of the Kato-Bloch perturbation expansion is presented. It consists of replacing simple numbers appearing in the perturbative series by matrices. This leads to the fact that the dependence of the eigenvalues of the…

The reductions of a square complex matrix A to its canonical forms under transformations of similarity, congruence, or *congruence are unstable operations: these canonical forms and reduction transformations depend discontinuously on the…
We study functional inequalities for Markov chains on discrete spaces with entropic Ricci curvature bounded from below. Our main results are that when curvature is non-negative, but not necessarily positive, the spectral gap, the Cheeger…

Rate processes are simple and analytically tractable models for many dynamical systems which switch stochastically between a discrete set of quasi stationary states but they may also approximate continuous processes by coarse grained,…

We consider a perturbation of an ``integrable'' Hamiltonian and give an expression for the canonical or unitary transformation which ``simplifies'' this perturbed system. The problem is to invert a functional defined on the Lie- algebra of…

We study the statistical properties of the time delay matrix $Q$ in the context of quantum transport through a chaotic cavity, in the absence of time-reversal invariance. First, we approach the problem from the point of view of random…
A number of theoretical and computational problems for matrix polynomials are solved by passing to linearizations. Therefore a perturbation theory results for linearizations need to be related back to matrix polynomials. In this paper we…
When the co-recursion and co-dilation in the recurrence relation of certain sequences of orthogonal polynomials are not at the same level, the behaviour of the modified orthogonal polynomials is expected to have different properties…
We give a substitute to Feller property for semigroups of time-changed processes; under some conditions this leads to establish sufficient (new) conditions for the semigroups to be Feller. Moreover, given a standard process and a sequence…
In this paper, we consider continuous-time Markov chains with a finite state space under nonlinear expectations. We define so-called Q-operators as an extension of Q-matrices or rate matrices to a nonlinear setup, where the nonlinearity is…
We introduce a new notion of "regularity structure" that provides an algebraic framework allowing to describe functions and / or distributions via a kind of "jet" or local Taylor expansion around each point. The main novel idea is to…
