The optical theorem relates the total scattering cross-section of a given structure with its forward scattering, but does not impose any restrictions on other directions. Strong backward-forward asymmetry in scattering could be achieved by…

We describe an algorithm that associates to each positive real number $r$ and each finite collection $C_r$ of planar pixels of size $r$ a planar piecewise linear set $S_r$ with the following additional property: if $C_r$ is the collection…

Let $\{C_1, C_2, \ldots, C_m\},~m\ge2$ be a collection of $n\times n$ real symmetric matrices. The objective of the paper is to offer an algorithm that finds a common congruence matrix $R$ such that $R^TC_iR$ is real diagonal for every…

We give an equivalent expression for the $K$-functional associated to the pair of operator spaces $(R,C)$ formed by the rows and columns respectively. This yields a description of the real interpolation spaces for the pair $(M_n(R),…

A promising way to reconcile naturalness with a decoupling solution to the SUSY flavor and CP problems is suggested by models with a radiatively driven inverted mass hierarchy (RIMH). The RIMH models arise naturally within the context of…

We study the closure of the projection of the (nonconvex) cone of rank restricted positive semidefinite matrices onto subsets of the matrix entries. This defines the feasible sets for semidefinite completion problems with restrictions on…

The Connes Embedding Problem (CEP) is a problem in the theory of tracial von Neumann algebras and asks whether or not every tracial von Neumann algebra embeds into an ultrapower of the hyperfinite II$_1$ factor. The CEP has had interactions…

When a projection of a symmetric or Hermitian matrix to the positive semidefinite cone is computed approximately (or to working precision on a computer), a natural question is to quantify its accuracy. A straightforward bound invoking…

Let W be a complex reflection group and H_c(W) the Rational Cherednik algebra for $W$ depending on a parameter c. One can consider the category O for H_c(W). We prove a conjecture of Rouquier that the categories O for H_c(W) and H_{c'}(W)…

This is a revised form of the previous paper in which we study cones of positive maps of B(H) into itself. We add the result that the dual cone of a symmetric mapping cone is itself a symmetric mapping cone. As applications we obtain…

A Riemann surface $\mathcal{S}$ having field of moduli $\mathbb{R}$, but not a field of definition, is called \emph{pseudoreal}. This means that $\mathcal{S}$ has anticonformal automorphisms, but non of them is an involution. We call a…

We give sufficient conditions of the nonnegative inverse eigenvalue problem (NIEP) for normal centrosymmetric matrices. These sufficient conditions are analogous to the sufficient conditions of the NIEP for normal matrices given by Xu [16]…

Our goal is to study statistical properies of "dielectric resonances" which are poles of conductance of a large random $LC$ network. Such poles are a particular example of eigenvalues $\lambda_n$ of matrix pencils ${\bf H}-\lambda {\bf W}$,…

We extend the treatment of neutrinos within the context of SIM(2) Very Special Relativity (VSR) by adding a new discrete symmetry that we call Light Cone Reflection (LCR). We construct a Lagrangian that exhibits both VSR and LCR symmetry,…

Let $D$ be the set of $n\times n$ positive semidefinite matrices of trace equal to one, also known as the set of density matrices. We prove two results on the hardness of approximating $D$ with polytopes. First, we show that if $0 <…

The $p$-norm of $r$-matrices generalizes the $2$-norm of $2$-matrices. It is shown that if a nonnegative $r$-matrix is symmetric with respect to two indices $j$ and $k$, then the $p$-norm is attained for some set of vectors such that the…

Let H_c be the rational Cherednik algebra of type A_{n-1} with spherical subalgebra U_c = eH_ce. Then U_c is filtered by order of differential operators, with associated graded ring gr U_c = C[h+h*]^W, where W is the n-th symmetric group.…

Given a directed graph D = (N, A) and a sequence of positive integers 1 <= c_1 < c_2 < ... < c_m <= |N|, we consider those path and cycle polytopes that are defined as the convex hulls of simple paths and cycles of D of cardinality c_p for…

In this work, we extend the Riemann-Hilbert (RH) method in order to study the coupled modified Korteweg-de Vries equation (cmKdV) under nonzero boundary conditions (NZBCs), and successfully find its solutions with their various dynamic…
